Aurora and magic Secure Spots at StarSeries Fall 2026

Aurora and magic have successfully qualified for the StarLadder StarSeries Fall 2026, advancing through the Europe closed qualifier. They will join renowned teams such as Vitality and FURIA at the $500,000 LAN event scheduled for September.

magic had an impressive qualifier run, defeating Walczaki and Gentle Mates twice without losing a single map. Their qualification match against Ninjas in Pyjamas showcased the skill of former PARIVISION player Andrey "AW" Anisimov, who played a pivotal role in securing victory in two maps against NIP.

In contrast, Ninjas in Pyjamas faced a disappointing day, missing out on both the BLAST Bounty LAN finals and the StarSeries Fall after their earlier defeat by paiN.

Aurora's path to qualification was more challenging, as they encountered setbacks against K27 and Nemesis. In the decisive match against HOTU, Aurora fought hard, with standout performances from Ismailcan "XANTARES" Dörtkardeş, Ali "Wicadia" Haydar Yalçın, and Jimi "Jimpphat" Salo helping them secure the final spot.

With the European qualifiers concluded, six of the eight teams for StarLadder StarSeries Fall are now confirmed, with the remaining two spots to be filled by teams from the North America and South America closed qualifiers, scheduled from July 28 to August 2.
