Bruno "latto" Rebelatto has secured his third MVP award in China following Legacy's grand final victory over G2, describing his latest performance as the career-best display he's ever delivered.
The Brazilian rifler, who previously ranked a CAC 2026 semi-final showing among his top three performances, placed this grand final appearance above all others. When asked to rate his performance, latto emphasized the significance of delivering in a championship decider.
Reflecting on Legacy's remarkable success in China, latto attributed much of it to the passionate local crowd. He admitted he couldn't fully explain the phenomenon, playfully calling it "China magic" while noting how differently the team performs in the region.
The mental aspect of competition has become crucial for Legacy's success. latto credited teammates BobZ, adrrr, and arT for their psychological support, which proved vital during a challenging encounter with MIBR. Without that mental preparation, he suggested, the team might not have survived the pressure.
His partnership with Eduardo "dumau" Wolkmer, dating back to 2021, continues to flourish. latto emphasized their deep understanding of each other's playstyles and their shared ambition to prove themselves at the highest level. The reunion with Santino "try" Rigal has brought new dimensions to their chemistry, with all three players having matured significantly since their 00NATION days.
latto highlighted try's consistency as a transformative factor for the team's overall stability. With two MVP medals and two EVP awards already this year, the rifler has his eyes set on breaking into HLTV's Top 20 rankings after finishing 30th last year. While reaching that milestone represents a personal dream, latto acknowledged his teammates' essential role in making such achievements possible.
