The Danish organization with four Major wins avoided disaster in the last qualifier.

Four spots for the Europe RMR have been filled after the second day of the fourth and final open qualifier, with Astralis, SAW, 1WIN, and HEET advancing to the event.

The two last spots for the European qualifiers for the IEM Rio Major will be up for grabs on Sunday, in the 5-6th place decider matches. Winners of Illuminar - Benched Heroes and Forward - GamerLegion will take the final spots and finalize the Europe RMR team list .

gla1ve can breathe a sigh of relief after making the RMR

Astralis' qualifying campaign was followed with the most interest as the squad ranked no. 4 in the world crashed out of the first three qualifiers, but Lukas "⁠gla1ve⁠" Rossander and co. ultimately made it through in what was their last chance. After surviving the firs day, they got revenge on los kogutos, who eliminated them in the previous qualifier, and then took down BLUEJAYS and Illuminar to get the job done.

The Danes have therefore ended a long day that started with a loss to OG at BLAST, and will have one more chance to qualify for the BLAST Premier Fall Final on Sunday when they face FaZe. Making it to the RMR also means that Andreas "⁠Xyp9x⁠" Højsleth has a chance to continue his streak of attending every Major since the release of CS:GO.

Among other teams that qualified for the RMR are 1WIN, featuring promising AWPer Denis "⁠deko⁠" Zhukov and former NAVI man Egor "⁠flamie⁠" Vasilyev, Portuguese side SAW that was on the brink of qualifying for the PGL Antwerp Major, and HEET who recently signed Audric "⁠JACKZ⁠" Jug.

Many notable teams are already out of the running for the IEM Rio Major, though. Movistar Riders and Copenhagen Flames were eliminated on the first day of the qualifier, while Apeks and Entropiq crashed out on the second one. Find all of the results of the Ro32 on our Event page.
