From hundreds of entrants in the open qualifiers, only five will fly the flag for North and South America, and the stakes couldn’t be higher. Here is the full schedule, results, streams, and more for the PGL Copenhagen Major Americas RMR.

Sixteen teams from North and South America met in a Swiss bracket, where teams were seeded and played head-to-head based on their records in the Americas RMR (0-1 teams will play other 0-1 teams, etc).

As normal, three wins guaranteed a team qualified for the PGL Copenhagen Major but only two losses led to elimination. With big names like Complexity, Team Liquid, and FURIA all vying to rep the region at the first CS2 Major, they needed to bring their A-game from the get-go otherwise they risked missing the biggest show in Counter-Strike.

The top-seeded squad will proceed directly to the Elimination Stage, while the remaining four must battle through the Opening Stage.
