After the conclusion of the Asian and North American RMR, all eyes are set on the big show, i.e. European RMR. The biggest names in CS2 are in Europe and tough RMR is on its way. With a plethora of teams competing, 32 teams are divided between two groups where they will compete in a Swiss format.
Group A boasts the likes of NAVI, Vitality, FaZe, and MOUZ while Group B will house G2, Spirit, and Eternal Fire. Both groups encompass favorites, dark horses, and underdogs and this balance will lead to an exciting qualification. The teams will be put in a Swiss system where the opening matches are best-of-ones, and when elimination or qualifying is at stake, it’s best-of-threes.
