PGL Major Copenhagen Europe RMR B teams, format, schedule, prizes, talent
A formidable field of teams lines up to brawl for the eight spots up for grabs at the second European RMR.

Eight teams have punched their ticket to the PGL Major Copenhagen from the first European RMR, and three teams are already waiting to get a second shot through the Last Chance Qualifier. Now, eight more teams will secure spots at the Major, three more will be cast to the LCQ, and five will bid their Major chances goodbye.
The RMR is already proving to be a minefield, with Ninjas in Pyjamas going out 0-3 and Falcons, the IEM Katowice semi-finalists, also out of the running after the first group. The RMRs hit different and emotions were already on full display during the first week of play in Romania.
Players from teams like KOI and SAW shed tears of joy after they secured their Major berths, others were catatonic after their defeats, and Robin "ropz" Kool even spoke of the palpable pressure in such an important qualifier. Now, a new set of teams will go through the same ups and downs; moments of pure bliss for those who qualify and silent desperation for those who fall short.

Participating teams and format
Vitality, Spirit and MOUZ are leading the charge in a packed field, which is arguably tougher than the first RMR, with a second line including Monte — albeit without Viktor "sdy" Orudzhev —, Cloud9, Apeks, ENCE, HEROIC, GamerLegion and Astralis not far behind.
The RMR will also be yet another proving ground for Spirit's young prodigy Danil "donk" Kryshkovets to make his mark after tying Nikola "NiKo" Kovač for the highest-ever rating at a Big Event, which he got in his maiden event of that stature. The youngster is the talk of the town and all eyes will be on him and his team as they face ENCE in their opener on Monday.

For Vitality, this will be a chance at redemption after a catastrophic showing at IEM Katowice, where they lost to ENCE and HEROIC to crash out in last place, while MOUZ will be looking to continue building momentum on their way to the Major after a semi-final run in Poland.
The second RMR is gearing up to be a hotly contested affair beyond the top, as even teams like Peter "dupreeh" Rasmussen's Preasy, the youthful OG, or the perennial Major overachievers Guild Eagles could have some surprises in store.
ECSTATIC will get a shot to show their worth on LAN, as will PERA, who came under fire after a string of unexpectedly strong online performances. Last but not least, the local boys of Nexus will be gunning to have the national buff help them in their longshot qualification attempt.
The format will follow the template of the first RMR, with teams playing best-of-one rounds in the 1-0, 0-1 and 1-1 matches before moving to best-of-three for qualifying, elimination and decider matches.
Schedule
The first day of play, Monday, February 19, will see 16 best-of-ones transpire: opening matches and matches from the 1-0 and 0-1 pools. The first two rounds of the second day will also be BO1, from the 1-1 pool, after which series play will take over in qualification, elimination, and decider matches until the Swiss group ends on Thursday.

Prizes
The prizes are, quite simply, qualifying for the Major and securing a payout from sticker sales. Eight teams will make it straight out of the Swiss stage from the RMR, while three more will have a chance to fight for one more spot in a separate six-team Last Chance Qualifier along with the three teams already waiting from the RMR A: fnatic, BetBoom and 9 Pandas.

Fantasy
The second European RMR's Fantasy game is already live and teams can be put together on the event page, here. The game is part of the Fantasy Spring season 2024 and as such will have season points on the line, as well as skin prizes for the top finishers.
Spirit players are leading the way as Leonid "chopper" Vishnyakov is currently the top-picked player and Boris "magixx" Vorobiev and donk are also among the eight most-picked, so far. Incredibly, the hype around the 17-year-old remains high despite a hefty $260,000 price tag.
The skin prizes are:
1. Hydra Gloves | Emerald (Field-Tested)
2. Hydra Gloves | Mangrove (Field-Tested)
3. Driver Gloves | Racing Green (Field-Tested)
