CS2 Major rule changes remove open qualifiers for the 3 biggest competitive regions

At this year’s Perfect World Counter-Strike 2 Major in Shanghai, the regional qualifier events will not feature open qualifiers for either Europe, North America, or South America for the first time in the illustrious history of the Majors.

Tournament organizer Perfect World released its complete schedule for the Shanghai Counter-Strike Major early this morning, revealing that Europe, North America, and South America would have closed qualifiers in August, but no open qualifiers. Smaller regions like Oceania, the Middle East, East Asia, and the hosts China still retain a single open qualifier followed by another single closed qualifier.
