Crusades represented Devious eSports at the 2026 Fortnite Global Championship in Antwerp, Belgium, competing on the world stage against the best Fortnite players from across the globe. Across the two-day competition, Crusades battled through 12 matches at the Lotto Arena, ultimately securing a 20th-place finish and taking home $20,000 USD in prize money. The result marks another strong international performance for Crusades and Devious eSports on one of Fortnite’s biggest competitive stages.

Devious eSports’ PGL Closed Qualification campaign has come to an end following a 0–2 defeat against Finishers in the Lower Bracket. DVS entered the series looking to bounce back following their opening loss to FlyQuest, with their tournament life on the line. The series began on Nuke, Devious’ map pick, where Finishers took control and closed out the opening map 13–7. With no room for error, the series moved to Dust II. Finishers carried their momentum into the second map and secured a 13–2 victory, completing the 2–0 series and eliminating Devious from the Closed Qualifier. While it was an earlier exit than the team had hoped for, the event provided valuable experience for the roster. Facing FlyQuest before battling Finishers gave DVS an opportunity to compete against strong opposition and identify areas that need further development. The result brings our PGL Closed Qualification run to a close, but the experience gives the team plenty to take forward. As the roster continues developing its chemistry, systems and consistency, every official provides another opportunity to improve and prepare for what comes next. Not the result we wanted, but valuable practice and experience for the team as we continue building. GGs to Finishers. Back to work.

Devious eSports opened their PGL Open campaign with a challenging matchup against FlyQuest, one of the most established Counter-Strike teams in the Oceania region. DVS entered the series knowing they were facing a significant step up in competition, providing the roster with an opportunity to test themselves against a team competing at the highest level of Australian Counter-Strike. FlyQuest showed their experience throughout the series, taking control across both maps and ultimately securing a 2–0 victory over Devious. While the scoreboard wasn’t the result DVS were hoping for, the series provided valuable experience for the roster. Playing against opposition of FlyQuest’s calibre highlighted areas the team can continue developing while also giving the players important experience against a higher level of competition. The defeat sent DVS into the Lower Bracket, where the team would have another opportunity to keep their PGL Open campaign alive against Finishers. For a developing roster, matches like these are an important part of the process. The opportunity to compete against one of Oceania’s strongest teams gives DVS something to learn from as the roster continues building chemistry, refining its systems and working towards closing the gap against the region’s top competition. Not the result we wanted, but an important experience for the team and another step forward in our development.

Devious eSports’ run in the DFRAG Invitational Open Qualifiers has officially come to an end following a tough day of Counter-Strike for the team. DVS opened the qualifier in the Upper Bracket against Noxious, falling 8–13 after a competitive matchup with several closely contested rounds. The loss sent us into the Lower Bracket, where we faced Retirement Too. Unfortunately, a 3–13 defeat brought our DFRAG Invitational campaign to an end. Heading into the event without our complete starting roster, DVS competed with a stand-in throughout the qualifier. While it wasn’t the ideal situation, the team adapted as best they could and gave it everything with the lineup available on the day. Despite the early exit, there are still positives to take away from the event. With the roster continuing to build chemistry, develop its systems and refine strategies, every official provides valuable experience and another opportunity to identify areas for improvement. The DFRAG Invitational may be over for us, but there’s still plenty more Counter-Strike ahead for DVS. The team now turns its attention towards the ESEA Season 58 Playoffs and the ANZC Locals Spring 2026 Open Qualifiers, with more opportunities to compete and bounce back immediately. Not the result we wanted, but one tournament doesn’t define the work being put in behind the scenes.
