The RMR<\/strong>s for the Perfect World Shanghai Major<\/strong> are upon us. What I\u2019ve deemed the most important tournament of the year is always rife with upsets: Nafany\u2019s Cloud9 failing to reach Paris, Astralis missing out on three consecutive Majors, and Hooxi\u2019s G2 losing the chance to play in Rio. On the flip side, there have been triumphs by teams who have etched their names into Counter-Strike history with dream runs. These runs have built careers for players like Boombl4, jL, and the boys from Bad News Eagles.<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve decided to highlight one team from every RMR that I think has a puncher\u2019s chance at securing a place at the Perfect World Shanghai Major\u2014and that life-changing sticker money.<\/span><\/p>\n

DRILLAS \u2013 Asia RMR<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"DRILLAS<\/p>\n

DRILLAS <\/strong>are currently ranked #91<\/strong> by HLTV. By the time this article is published, DRILLAS\u2019 run may already be recorded on the event marquee as they surprise everyone through the Asia RMR<\/strong>. I truly believe this team to be overqualified to be playing in the Asia RMR. To have four European players, I\u2019m not mincing my words, should be declared illegal in this tournament. That is my firm stance: you should not be able to play the Asia RMR with four Europeans.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, Valve\u2019s incompetence in creating comprehensive rules works to Ohnepixel<\/strong>\u2019s benefit. I also won\u2019t penalize my own judgment of the team for slipping through with this lineup. Woro2k<\/strong> is the standout player for me. His ability to AWP-IGL is severely underrated in what was a tumultuous period with Monte following the BLAST Paris Major. He\u2019s still one of the 25 best AWPers<\/strong> in the world\u2014more than any of the other teams in this RMR can claim, with the exception of The Mongolz\u2019s 910.<\/span><\/p>\n

Despite his tenure with Falcons, Envy, and 3DMAX, hAdji<\/strong> has never participated in a Major. He\u2019s competed in multiple European RMRs, often falling short in the past by a single map for Rio. SENER1<\/strong> has been part of one of the best underdog stories in recent history with three Major appearances at Antwerp, Rio, and Paris. Kvem<\/strong> and meztal<\/strong> have less experience but regularly face Tier 2 European competition.<\/span><\/p>\n

This all blends to form a perfect storm of overqualified individuals who now have the power of belief on their side. With a shocking Bo3 win streak of five matches to qualify through the Middle Eastern qualifier, this team has shown a willingness to play entirely in Europe in preparation. They\u2019ve competed in CCT and lower-ranked events to win two online cups\u2014and that, I\u2019d say, is more than enough.<\/span><\/p>\n

The level of Asian teams is known to be weaker than in Europe, and unless other Asian teams have dedicated all their time leading up to the RMRs to practice in Europe, DRILLAS would have had better preparation for the three months leading up to this tournament.<\/span><\/p>\n

I predict that we\u2019ll see Ohnepixel\u2019s face on children\u2019s guns everywhere.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Red Canids \u2013 Americas RMR<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"Red<\/p>\n

Red Canids<\/strong> are currently ranked #29<\/strong> on HLTV. With seven slots available at the Americas RMR, I think they can play their way past some of the other fringe teams, such as 9z and Imperial.<\/span><\/p>\n

I have already written about dav1deuS<\/strong> for SkinClub<\/a> and how his blend of aggressive rifling with mid-round decision-making makes him a force to be reckoned with. I also believe nython has gained more clarity on what he does and does not want from this team. The synergy in mid-rounds, in general, has looked sharp for Red Canids. They recently took down Imperial on LAN at the CBCS Masters, along with Bestia (another fringe contender for an Americas spot).<\/span><\/p>\n

I have seen their flaws, though. nython\u2019s individual level has been especially poor, which is what happens when you turn a plateaued AWPer into a rifling IGL. However, Red Canids are especially difficult to beat in the rare game where he performs well.<\/span><\/p>\n

On top of that, coldzera<\/strong> has regained form. In 2024, coldzera has a 1.07 rating against Top 20 opponents across 21 maps. A reminder: this is using Rating 2.1, so reframe your perception of what a 1.07 means, as most players dropped about 0.4 in rating with the switch from 2.0 to 2.1. Roughly speaking, he has had a 1.11 against Top 20 opponents this year on LAN. For my money, that is a great comeback.<\/span><\/p>\n

HEN1<\/strong> is also reliable as ever. A passive AWPer, he seems to do his best work in the late-round clutch or when pressed back into a corner. That\u2019s where he truly shines. venomzera<\/strong> is still developing, but I think this team is coming into the Americas RMR with some wind in their sails, proving to be a cut above the highly competitive Brazilian region.<\/span><\/p>\n

B8 \u2013 Europe RMR A<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"B8<\/p>\n

B8<\/strong> have been carving up online and have the maps to show for it. In 2023, headtr1ck<\/strong> played 161 maps for NIP. Since joining B8 in May, he has played 264. He\u2019s played over 100 more maps in about half the amount of time. B8 also have the online hardware stacking up (not talking about cheats).<\/span><\/p>\n

B8 have won eight cups<\/strong> and\/or qualifiers since headtr1ck joined. Every single player has a clearly defined role, and npl is also having a huge resurgence as an individual. Somehow molding himself after electroNic as both a caller and a star rifler, npl has proven that he is one of the best prospects in Eastern Europe in both positions.<\/span><\/p>\n

I also have to say, I enjoy support players who don\u2019t embarrass themselves. esenthial<\/strong>\u2019s worst characteristic is that you need to pronounce his name as if you have a lisp. I\u2019ve enjoyed his aim in anchor and lurk roles, with swift time to kill and a knack for delivering an extra 90 damage with a quick dink before being dispatched on his bombsites. alex666<\/strong> will be an X-factor for this team. I\u2019ve seen days where he\u2019s outshining the two fallen tier-1 prospects, but on other days, he\u2019s the worst player in the server among both teams.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cloud9 \u2013 Europe RMR B<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"Cloud9<\/p>\n

I was torn between a couple of teams when picking from RMR B. I first considered Sangal, but they are technically in the top 7 of that RMR in HLTV rankings. I also thought about Fnatic, with the recent addition of nawwk, who I view as an improvement over afro. But seeing Cloud9<\/strong> at #76<\/strong> in the world was too good to pass up<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

This team should be operating as a top 40<\/strong> team in the world at a bare minimum.<\/strong> I had my reservations about some of the pieces here, and unfortunately, my biggest gripe does fall on their weakest statistical player, interz<\/strong>. BBL interz (if you know, you know)<\/em> has played himself into becoming a losing condition for this team with his archaic style of supporting, but there is still enough to work with that I would give this team a chance.<\/span><\/p>\n

HeavyGod<\/strong> does not care what situation he is in. This guy is one of the 10 best anchors in the world, and to see him toiling away on a team that wouldn\u2019t even have a chance to enter the top 20 next year is criminal. He should be somewhere better, or Cloud9 should change pieces around him.<\/span><\/p>\n

On top of that, Boombl4<\/strong> is still a good IGL in my eyes. This team\u2019s cohesion has been awkward, but given the personnel they\u2019re working with, I expect to see improvement in their play upon a switch to LAN.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
