m0NESY: “Today We Showed the Best Game We Have Ever Played in Falcons”

August 24, 2025 — Riyadh
In the third-place decider at the Esports World Cup (EWC) 2025, Team Falcons emerged triumphant, dismantling Vitality to clinch bronze in emphatic fashion. A visibly energised Ilya “m0NESY” Osipov described their performance as “the best game we have ever played in Falcons,” marking a pivotal moment in the roster’s growing narrative. 

A Showcase of Dominance, Confidence, and Chemistry

Falcons delivered a masterclass, particularly on Nuke, where they overwhelmed Vitality with a 13–3 victory in the deciding map. m0NESY was nothing short of spectacular throughout the series, recording 54 kills and a staggering +29 kill-to-death differential, putting the organization on a firm trajectory toward tier-one relevance.
His performance was supported by NiKo, whose veteran poise and multiple MVPs provided invaluable structure and firepower.

Victory with Momentum and Meaning

Battling on home turf, Falcons had already surged through the bracket, excelling against MOUZ and Aurora to reach the semifinals. The win over Vitality not only secured a podium finish, but also became a statement of intent for a team hungry for legacy. In m0NESY’s words, the result wasn’t just about rankings—it was about belief. 
This result also boosts Falcons’ standing in the Club Championship through additional VRS (Valve Regional Standings) points—a currency vital to securing future invites and seeding.

m0NESY’s Arc: From Transfer to Team Pillar

m0NESY’s journey to this moment has been a rollercoaster. Transferred from G2 in April 2025 in what was dubbed a blockbuster move, he brought both supernova fragging and high expectations. Initial results were mixed, but over events like PGL Bucharest and IEM Melbourne, his synergy with teammates like NiKo began to shine. 
Today’s performance in Riyadh suggests that Falcons are finally entering their prime, and m0NESY is at the heart of that evolution.

What Comes Next for Falcons—and Their Rivals

• Falcons now look ahead to the fall circuit, with tournaments like StarSeries Fall, BLAST Finals, and future Majors on the horizon—and momentum behind them.

• For Vitality, this result punctuates a season of underachievement that includes semifinal exits and mounting pressure to reset.

• For rival teams, Falcons now present a clear threat—an aggressive, homegrown unit firing on all cylinders.
