Cloud9 have been knocked out of the BLAST R6 Major Osaka after losing to Weibo Gaming in today's first elimination match.
Weibo Gaming ran over the North American lineup, winning on Kafe Dostoyevsky and Clubhouse by 7-0 and 7-3 scores. With a SiegeGG rating of 1.58, Wu "Reeps96" Weichen was the best player of the game.
Cloud9's overall performance in Osaka has had some ups and downs. First, the team secured a 7-4 win against 100 Thieves, redeeming themselves from their BLAST R6 North America League 2026 Stage 2 Upper Bracket Final defeat. Then, the blue roster was one round away from forcing the overtime against the back-to-back world champions, FaZe Clan.
Unfortunately for the North Americans, it went all down from there. The team fell to the Lower Bracket of the Swiss Stage after a 2-7 defeat against Virtus.pro. Finally, their 0-2 loss against Weibo Gaming sees them exiting the event.
At the same time, this result means Cloud9 won't be able to qualify for the Six Invitational 2027 through the Global Standings. They needed a deep run in Osaka, which won't happen.
