2 top-ranked CS:GO teams set to clash in first quarterfinal of Paris Major
Heroic and FaZe Clan, the current No. 2 and 3 CS:GO teams in the world at the moment according to HLTV’s ranking, will face one another in the first quarterfinal series of BLAST Paris Major playoffs on May 18 at the Accor Arena.
This has led some casual CS:GO fans to confusion as they expected such teams would only face each other later on, but the matchup has been scheduled for the quarterfinals because of their Legends Stage seeding. Heroic have the first seeding coming to Champions Stage due to their 3-0 campaign, while FaZe only booked their spot on May 16 after defeating NAVI in the elimination game.
