Yesterday our Counter-Strike team qualified for their third consecutive Major tournament. After beating Vitality and OG 2-1 in the tie-breaker series, we enter the tournament with Legend status, the highest possible seeding, as one of eight teams. Once again, a massive performance from the players and performance staff.

By qualifying we guarantee exposure on the biggest stage for our commercial partners Aker BioMarine, EPOS, Orkla Health, Red Bull, Waterdrop and Xtrfy. The financial impact of qualifying is also notable, as we will get a substantial boost in revenues from participating.

The ESL Gaming hosted Rio Major will be the first ever held in Brazil and is the most anticipated Major in history. In total 24 teams will play it out over a two-week period to crown the Major champion. The tournament starts on the 31st of October, while the Legend stage starts on the 5th of November.
