While many of you will be kicking back to enjoy the long Easter weekend, the best Counter-Strike 2 players and teams will be back to business by appearing at the PGL Bucharest event happening in Romania this April. The tournament officially kicks off on April 4, and with matches slated from Saturday, you might be curious to know what the opening fixtures look like. We have this information below.
- FUT Esports vs. Inner Circle Esports
- B8 vs. Wildcard
- The MongolZ vs. BC.Game Esports
- Parivision vs. Legacy
- 3DMax vs. Fokus
- NRG vs. Team Voca
- Astralis vs. MiBR
- FaZe Clan vs. Eyeballers
The tournament will last just over a week and will begin by seeing the 16 teams whittled down to only eight survivors through the initial group stage. The group is structured so that each round is re-seeded from scratch, with the aim being for a team to notch up three victories to advance to the playoffs. This could happen by winning the first three matches and easily progressing, or by squeezing through in the end in a 3-2 manner. Regardless of how the job is done, any team who notches up three losses will be eliminated.
When the playoffs do commence, this will be a single-elimination bracket, meaning there is no safety net during this phase of the action.
Will you be watching PGL Bucharest this weekend?
