The Europe 馃嚜馃嚭 VRS race for the final 2 slots gets narrower.

馃嚭馃嚘 B8 narrowly survive this morning.
3 rounds from elimination against 馃嚫馃嚜 Alliance, 2 rounds against 馃嚪馃嚭 K27.
On a knife edge. Mostly just need to avoid 4th place now.

Pressure on everyone else now.

馃嚜馃嚭 Astralis have eliminated 馃嚪馃嚭 magic from major contention.

馃嚜馃嚭 Astralis will be fine for the major with jabbi having 6 matches and cmtry having 4. FUT winning / losing determines whether cmtry or SunPayus gets stickers

馃嚭馃嚘 B8 have eliminated 馃嚫馃嚜 Alliance from major contention after a monster hero rifle round.

馃嚭馃嚘 B8 will shortly face 馃嚪馃嚭 K27 in another must win game to keep their major dreams alive.

Two huge major race games today.

馃嚫馃嚜 Alliance vs 馃嚭馃嚘 B8 in a major elimination game.

馃嚭馃嚘 fnatic vs 馃嚛馃嚜 BIG in the biggest "VRS Swing" game so far this major.

馃嚫馃嚜 Alliance fighting for Swedish CS as a win would massively help 馃嚫馃嚜 poiii and 馃嚫馃嚜 yxngstxr

I think Astralis have 3 options here

A. Lose twice with NEO
B. Alternate cmtry & NEO and potentially will need to sub in Hooxi / Jabbi
C. A third sillier option

A pretty awkward situation overall

Huge upset in the major race as 馃嚪馃嚭 K27 take down 馃嚭馃嚘 B8

馃搲 B8 drop to a ~35% chance to make the major

This massively opens the door for other contenders

Two key games in the 馃嚜馃嚭 EU VRS major race today.

馃嚭馃嚘 B8 vs 馃嚪馃嚭 K27
馃嚜馃嚭 FaZe vs 馃嚫馃嚜 Alliance

Alliance and K27 will be fighting for survival. Wins for both can throw the major race into chaos, helping themselves and other contenders.

My best guestimate is that team would also not be invited. From the same thread I had with Valve about the issue:

"Previously, teams had to finalize their rosters by the qualifier registration deadline. Now the deadline is 5 matches prior to the Major invitation deadline.
聽
We can鈥檛 prevent teams from playing it loose close to the deadline, but we don鈥檛 recommend it."

And from Major Supplemental Rulebook:

"Invitations will be sent to intact rosters,"

A four man roster doesn't sound intact to me.
@MischiefCS2 @AKUDAMA_CS2 @JNKF112 @StrikerHLTVorg What we do not know of yet, as it's never happened for the major is how only 4 players appearing on the monthly invite rankings.

Into the unknown.

馃嚚馃嚦 TYLOO live to fight another day after beating 馃嚘馃嚪 9z in a crucial 0-2 game.

If 馃嚚馃嚦 TYLOO go 1-3, they still rely on HyperX results. 2-3 at PGL Masters and theyd be in a great position

馃嚚馃嚦 LVG fail to qualify to MPS Halloween and have no more events, huge for other Asia teams.

馃嚜馃嚭 FUT go 3-0 in the 馃嚪馃嚧 PGL Masters Swiss

If they lose their Quarter Final game, 馃嚭馃嚘 cmtry will be registered on the FUT roster

This is because they wont have played 5 matches with the new roster.

also as this was made on limited sleep

"safe but close" is pretty poor wording.

Consider it more as "Closer to Safety", buit still reliant on other results

BIG's 66% is correct. It should just be light green with "Safe but close"

you can make your own determination of whether 66% is safe but close though

馃嚚馃嚦 TYLOO fall to 0-2 at PGL.

All they (likely) need is one win here to relieve a lot of pressure for HyperX

If they do go out 0-3, their major fate hangs in the balance

If they do end up attending, will they be able to top @birdfromsky 's performance? (Video credits @dbdan_ )

Huge upset as 馃審BCG take down 馃嚜馃嚭 FaZe 2-0

馃審BCG have 99% secured their major.

馃嚜馃嚭 FaZe likely still fine.
However, if 馃嚜馃嚭 FaZe crash out of their RLG Tesla group 0-2, they will likely miss the major.

One to watch
