IEM Atlanta 2026: against Passion UA

CS2 / Coverage / 11 May 2026 — 12:00

BLAST Rivals Spring 2026 concluded in early May, with NAVI finishing second after falling to Vitality in the final (0 : 3).

And today, Born to Win will begin their run at IEM Atlanta 2026. From May 11 to 17, sixteen teams, including Vitality, will compete for a $ 300 000 prize pool.

NAVI’s first opponent in the group stage will be Passion UA. The European team with two Ukrainian players is currently ranked 44th in the Valve ranking and 34th in the HLTV.org ranking.

The last head-to-head match between the teams was played in September last year at StarLadder StarSeries Fall 2025 and ended in a 2 : 0 victory for NAVI. However, Passion UA’s roster has undergone significant changes since then.

We hope that today the Born to Win will be able to claim victory and advance to the next round of group B, where they will face the winner of SINNERS / GamerLegion. See you on the broadcast!
