PGL Copenhagen Major 2024; Regional RMR teams and format
Even with a little rocky qualifier stage, the first ever Major for Counter-Strike 2 is set to start next month, featuring 24 teams. The teams will make their way to the Major through Regional RMR qualifiers.
The regions include Europe, America and Asia-Pacific. European RMR will be divided into two parts due to the number of teams taking part. It currently boasts the largest number of competitive Counter-Strike teams.
On the flip side, the Asia-Pacific region is the smallest in terms of teams competing, despite having many players. The American region also boasts a healthy community but has been lacking behind the European region in Counter-Strike.
Format
The European and American RMRs will be played in a 16-team Swiss System Format. However, Europe will feature the largest number of teams in the PGL Copenhagen Major.
The top 8 teams from European RMR A and RMR B will move to the Major. Losers will have one more chance to qualify for the major through decider brackets. A total of 17 teams (16 from RMRs + 1 from Decider) will move to Major.
The American RMR will feature a total of 16 teams, out of which, only five will qualify for the Major. As for Asia-Pacific, only two will qualify for the Major out of eight teams.
