Two heavy hitters in Cloud9 and MOUZ are the first teams to make it out of the PGL Europe RMR having gone unbeaten in the three matches.

Mouz took on Guild Eagles on the opening day of the qualifier beating the mix of FPL puggers in a match that went for 30 rounds until the latter came out with a loss. While the start was shaky, Mouz had shown enough perseverance with a squad of in-experienced prodigies to walk into the next game against Danish side ECSTATIC on the second day of the RMR. Mouz were the favorites coming into the game and the scoreline reflected it after they comfortably brushed them aside with a 13-8 victory.

The third day saw Mouz, take on an in-from Team Spirit with Danil ‘donk’ Kryshkovets firing on all cylinders. While Mouz were far from favorites coming into the match, a well-coerced match saw them take down the Russian side with a convincing 2-0 win thus booking their spot at the first major of CS2.

Cloud9 had a rough start to their CS2 campaign but having fought their way through the closed qualifiers, the CIS side brought their A-game when it came to the RMR. While facing relatively lesser-known teams in Apeks and PERA, C9 were able to cruise through without facing much of a resistance.

In the 3rd game of the qualifier, C9 came across Vitality who bombed out of IEM Katowice. Even though Vitality has been the best CS2 team for a while, C9 pushed them to their limits, beating Vitality in 2-1 fashion which secured their spot in the first CS2 Major. While C9 faced difficulties maintaining their form, an early qualification would give them some time to rest before preparing for the major.
