NAVI Dominate Ninjas in Pyjamas to Take StarSeries Fall 2025 Title

NAVI concluded the StarLadder StarSeries Fall 2025 tournament with a 2-0 victory over Ninjas in Pyjamas. In the decisive match the team took control on Nuke (13:7) and Inferno (13:10), leaving their opponents no chance for a comeback.

This win was especially meaningful in light of NAVI’s previous results. After a bright debut with makazze at IEM Cologne the team only managed a top-four finish and then exited early at BLAST Bounty, Esports World Cup, and BLAST Open London, losing to opponents such as M80, Astralis, and 3DMAX.

In Budapest the team arrived determined to bounce back. According to iM, the squad simply needed to start winning again to regain confidence. After a tough opener against 9INE, NAVI didn’t drop a single map, showing consistent play and control over their matches.

The final series started with a strong defensive showing on Nuke. Despite a brief surge from NIP, NAVI went into halftime with the lead and then calmly closed the map. On Inferno the opponents managed to cause problems, especially thanks to the bright performances of xKacpersky and r1nkle, but NAVI built a solid defense and answered with individual plays — iM stood out with a key triple kill to seal the team’s success.
