NRG Defeats FNATIC in Rematch, Wins Valorant Champions 2025

The Valorant Champions 2025 Grand Final took place on Sunday, October 5, 2025, at the Accor Arena in Paris, France, bringing together two Valorant giants: NRG and FNATIC. Previously, the two teams met, with NRG defeating FNATIC, relegating them to the Lower Bracket. The two returned in an epic rematch after FNATIC defeated DRX.

Both teams played in a best-of-five (BO5) format, with maps in Corrode, Lotus, Abyss, Ascent, and Sunset. The team with three wins would be crowned champion. In game 1, Corrode, FNATIC took the lead in the pistol round of the first half. NRG responded in the bonus round with brilliant performances from Mada and Brawk to secure their first points.

After falling behind, NRG began to take the lead, playing defensively. Mada and Brawk's performance was highlighted again. The first half ended with NRG leading FNATIC 9-3. NRG continued to pound FNATIC in the second half, with Boaster and his teammates seemingly helpless. Ultimately, NRG secured Game 1. Continuing their positive trend, NRG dominated again early in Game 2, Lotus.

This time, veteran EthAn's performance was truly extraordinary. As if unwilling to be outdone by Mada and Brawk, EthAn and s0m began to shine. But just as importantly, Skuba's contribution also deserves recognition. NRG closed the first half with a 9-3 victory in Game 2, Lotus. FNATIC put up some resistance in the second half, but NRG stepped up and eventually won Game 2, Lotus, 13-6.

Entering Game 3, Abyss, NRG regained the lead early on. Brawk and Mada were once again the main protagonists. NRG crushed FNATIC in the first half with a score of 11-1. However, in the second half, FNATIC went on a rampage and rallied. NRG seemed to struggle, and the tide turned in FNATIC's favor. The performance of Chronicle and Kaajak was key to FNATIC's comeback.

NRG managed to secure match point, but that wasn't the end of it. FNATIC continued to close the gap with impressive performances from Kaajak and Chronicle. NRG and FNATIC eventually went to overtime. In the first overtime round, a clutch from Boaster gave FNATIC the lead. Finally, a Kaajak and Chronicle combo secured FNATIC's first point on Abyss.

Unwilling to give up, NRG regained their lead on Ascent. FNATIC managed to catch up, but this time Alfajer truly shone. The first half ended with a score of 8-4 in FNATIC's favor. While NRG seemed to be struggling, FNATIC truly rallied and turned the tide. Alfajer was the key player in FNATIC's play on Ascent. Just like the previous game, NRG was defeated 13-8 after Brawk failed to deploy the Spike in time.

Game 5, Sunset, was very volatile for both teams. Fiercely competitive from the start, FNATIC briefly took the lead. This game, s0m was truly exceptional, guiding his teammates to victory. NRG closed out their lead in the first half with a 9-3 score over FNATIC. NRG secured match point, taking a step closer to victory, with Mada once again playing a key role.

With Crashies left alone, Skuba defeated Crashies, and Mada finally managed to defuse the Spike, leading NRG to the 2025 Valorant Champions title. It was a truly remarkable victory; a fiercely contested match between two Valorant giants from America and Europe ended with a resounding victory for NRG, bringing glory to America in the competitive Valorant scene.
