With each Counter-Strike Major, players have the chance to select their own Pick’Ems and earn prestigious awards if they’re correct. The case is no different with the Perfect World CS2 Shanghai Major, though, it feels like this time the predictions are tougher than ever.
The tournament is divided into two stages: Opening and Elimination, with the latter featuring both a Swiss System competition and single-elimination playoffs. Like always, players may pick their predictions in each of those stages, and if they get the majority of them right, their in-game Coin will be upgraded. A better Coin, on the other hand, means you receive more Souvenir Tokens to exchange for containers with sweet skins—if you purchase the viewer pass, that is.
