Lynn Vision and Legacy are among the final wave of invites for the upcoming FISSURE Playground 2 Counter-Strike 2 event.
Alongside Lynn Vision and Legacy, HEROIC and PaiN Gaming have also accepted an invitation to the second FISSURE Playground event of the year. For Legacy, it will be the first time the South American side has competed at FISSURE Playground.
The trio of Lynn Vision, HEROIC, and PaiN Gaming will be making their second appearance at a FISSURE event, having competed at FISSURE Playground 1 earlier this year.
Legacy is the lowest-ranked team to receive an invitation from July’s Valve Regional Standings (VRS) at 21st. Notably, all 16 teams competing at FISSURE Playground 2 are within the top 32.
Taking place September 12th – 21st in Belgrade, Serbia, teams in attendance will compete for a share of the event’s $1.25m (~£924,436) prize pool, with $200,000 (~£147,909) going to the tournament winner.
Alongside the prize pool, VRS points are up for grabs as organisations look to secure a spot at the StarLadder Budapest Major in November.
Due to a busy CS2 tournament schedule, FISSURE Playground 2 clashes with StarLadder StarSeries Fall 2025, another event that uses July’s VRS to determine which teams are invited. As the focus turns towards the Major, organisations have had to select which events to prioritise.
