CSGO – Four Teams Earn The Spot At BLAST. TV – North America

Mythic, Detonate, Timbermen, and Strife each won a best-of-three qualifying match to progress from the inaugural BLAST.tv Paris North America RMR open qualifier. These teams advanced by surviving the single-elimination bracket, which consisted of three rounds of best-of-one matches and one BO3 Series.

The Tough Journey

The teams had to work around a number of problems that plagued the qualification process, including poor communication with Gamers Club administrators, a lack of direction or understanding regarding map and side selection, and even a player who was disqualified for allegedly cheating in a match. The turnout estimates were equally low as the bracket had just 46 registered teams, of whom only 36 confirmed their presence.

One of the biggest esports sites in Brazil is Gamers Club, but North American competitors were not aware with it, which led to misunderstanding throughout the qualifications. A few teams in the bracket didn’t know what time they were supposed to check in or register, which complicated matters even more. As a result, several teams moved through the bracket without ever playing a match.

Austin #⁠Cooper⁠ Abadir and Erik #⁠fl0m⁠ Mythic defeated Limitless thanks to Flom, who gave outstanding performances deserving of scores of 1.37 and 1.23, respectively. Teams had the option to play their ties sooner, therefore their match was played on Tuesday. Detonate became the second team to progress following their sweep over skriptovie as four players achieved ratings over 1.30 during the 2-0 encounter.

Timbermen took the third position in the closed qualifier with their 2-0 victory against Cartel Terraza, which came just before Strife locked up the last berth with their 2-1 triumph over 4ORMULA. Noah is a #Nifty Following their victory on Inferno (16-8), Francis and crew were unable to complete the match and quickly gave up to Nuke (7-16) and Mirage (12-16).

The team captained by Bobby #stamina Eitrem qualified for the fourth round by defeating Goomba Stomp in the first round. Their victory over Goomba Stomp was thrown out because #pawt was expelled for cheating during the third round match, and they briefly faced FunMix in their third game.

More Teams To Qualify?

To decide the four qualifying teams’ seeding for the closed qualifications, one more round of best-of-one matches must be played. With a longer registration deadline, the second open qualifier will get under way with more time for teams to sign up and start their bracket runs.
