Team Falcons are the IEM Cologne 2026 Major champions, closing out the tournament with a dominant 3-0 Grand Finals sweep over FURIA. It's the organization's first Major title.
The road to the trophy was anything but easy. Falcons knocked out defending Major champions Vitality in the Quarterfinals 2-1, with every map going the full 24 rounds. The Semifinals against Team Spirit were just as grueling — two maps went to Overtime before Falcons sealed the series 2-1, winning the decider on Dust II 16-12 to book their first-ever Grand Finals appearance.
To mark the end of the Cologne Major, Valve has added new items to the Major Shop. Available now are IEM Cologne 2026 Champions Autograph stickers featuring Falcons players in Paper, Holo, Foil, and Gold variants, plus IEM Cologne 2026 Highlight Charms covering 10 highlights from each of the six tournament stages and the Falcons' trophy-lifting moment.
