The most recent update for the monthly Valve Regional Rankings is out, deciding which Counter-Strike 2 squads get invited to the forthcoming BLAST.tv Austin CS2 Major tournament. The rankings disclosed today will decide which teams receive direct invites to either Stage 3 or Stage 2, and which ones must battle it out in the Major Regional Qualifiers to compete in Stage 1.
After several months of hard work, the teams who’ve secured their place in the Major now also secure a share of the substantial revenue from the sticker sales.
