All CS2 Teams Qualified for the Perfect World Shanghai Major
The first 17 teams with tickets booked for Shanghai later this month are decided. As interesting as the RMRs were, they did not produce any upsets and the teams’ performance was on par with their form coming into the tournament.
The lack of top sides from Asia/Oceania resulted in fewer slots for the region but 3 that have made it through have the potential to cause a major upset especially with the Shanghai crowd backing them.
American teams saw quite a few roster changes leading up to the major but that did not stop the likes of Liquid and CoL from making it into the elimination stage of the Major despite facing roadblocks in terms of losses in the opening day of the RMR. Wildcard came out as a team to be reckoned with as they were the best-performing side from the event. Furia, paiN, Imperial, and MIBR are delivering when it matters, and they made sure that there is enough South American representation at the Major.
Contrary to America, Group A from Europe produced the most unsurprising results as the teams expected to make it through had little to no trouble in booking their spots for the Major. Vitality, NAVI, MOUZ, and FaZe being the clear favorites made it through along with the likes of Cloud9 and Fnatic.
Asia

- Rare Atom

- paIN
- Complexity
- Team Liquid
- Imperial

Europe Group A

With Group B still left to conclude, Spirit, G2, Eternal Fire, Astralis, and Heroic are still left to qualify. Any of the said teams failing to make it through would be considered an upset and given the underdogs they will face in Group B, we cannot brush off the possibility of it happening.
