Perfect World Shanghai Major EU RMR Group A Day 2 recap

Day 2 Upsets and Surprises in the Race for Major Qualification

Following a thrilling Day 1, Day 2 of the Perfect World Shanghai Major EU RMR Group A opened up with interesting results. While some teams managed to post their first victory, some tasted their first loss of the qualifier.

Arguably, they are the strongest teams coming into the qualifier. MOUZ and Vitality continued their winning streak at the cost of NAVI and FaZe respectively. NAVI and FaZe are second favourites and the results surprised no one. While MOUZ had a tough time against NAVI, Vitality sailed through which was unexpected as FaZe looked to be in form after the opening day.

Cloud9 and Fnatic, having secured wins over Sangal and Betboom, managed to edge closer to qualification. However, they need a win in their next game to book a spot, or a tough final day awaits them.

Despite little expectations, Rebels and UNiTY took the earliest exit from the RMR having failed to secure a single win following their losses today against Nemiga and Gamer Legion respectively.

As Day 3 approaches, we are due for a few more teams to qualify and at the same time, more teams will bow out of the competition. As tough as the day will be, there are a few big names in the group who are yet to secure a spot a loss tomorrow could cost said teams dearly.
