Six teams fight for one Major spot in EU LCQ

Sixteen PGL Major Copenhagen spots have been handed out and just one more remains in Europe.

Astralis are the highest-ranked team in the Last Chance Qualifier

Following the conclusion of the two Europe RMR groups, 16 out of the region's 17 slots at the PGL CS2 Major Copenhagen have now been handed out to the teams who earned three victories in their respective Swiss groups.

Six teams are now left in the running for one final European slot in Copenhagen after faltering in the 2-2 matches — 9 Pandas, BetBoom and fnatic from the A group and Astralis, Guild Eagles and GamerLegion from B — and they're set to battle it out in the Last Chance Qualifier on Friday and Saturday.

That will begin with the opening matchups, in which the three teams from EU RMR A have been paired up with three from the B group based on their final seeding, determined by the strength of their opponents in their group.

The highest-seeded team out of the three winners (fnatic, 9 Pandas, Guild Eagles or Astralis, in order of seeding) will then get an advantage on Saturday. They will go straight to the first-place decider while the other two teams fight it out in an extra match.

The winning team will join the other 16 already qualified teams at the PGL CS2 Major Copenhagen, taking place from March 17-31.

It is yet to be determined which seven of the 17 European teams will get to skip the Opening Stage in Copenhagen. This will be decided based on Valve's Regional Standings as of March 5, following the conclusion of the Americas RMR.

With how dogbreath the seeds were to begin with the setup on the last day sucks, but the cutthroat single elimination style is fun though.

Whoever got throught deserves it, you can only beat the teams that are in front of you. Also astralis on paper should've had no problems at all but in reality struggled against many smaller orgs. People just like to talk sh*t in general

Its a weird format... Right now there are 3 matches.... 1 of the 3 winners will go directly to the 1st-2nd place match (basically the final). But, there are 2 more winners left, and they will play the "3rd place decider" match the loser is out (in 3rd place), the winner will play in the final for the 1st-2nd place.

According to the article: "The highest-seeded team out of the three winners (fnatic, 9 Pandas, Guild Eagles or Astralis, in order of seeding) will then get an advantage on Saturday." So, looks like Fnatic has the priority...

9 english and 7 native speaking teams out of EU rmr, potentially 8 native with astralis as slight favourites in LCQ. in paris there were 11 english and only 6 native in rio it was 9 english, 7 native. so the balance of international and national teams is suprisingly the same for the last 2 years.

we are talking about EU RMR, correct? the 11 english speaking teams qualified i counted were fnatic, itb, GL, apeks, og, mouz from A (6) aswell as vitality, g2, nip, ence from B (4) plus faze from decider. none of those 11 teams got a native speaking core or what do u mean? forze, monte, heroic, 9ine, navi, bne are the 6 native speaking teams. from ur count, 2 of those would have been english speaking right? i doubt thats right
