PGL Antwerp CS: GO Major playoffs to kick off with NiP and FaZe match

The Playoffs are here!

The PGL Antwerp CS: GO Major is down to its last eight teams. Heroic, FURIA and Copenhagen Flames became the last three teams to qualify for the Champions stage. PGL announced the playoffs bracket and we have some exciting elimination matches ahead. Here’s what the CS: GO Major playoffs look like. 

The CS: GO Anwerp Major has seen the best teams from across the world come together to compete on the biggest stage. At stake is not only $2 million but also the prestige of securing the title of the world’s best CS: GO teams. There are so many storylines at work here, including the dream Brazilian Imperial run, FaZe Clan’s rise to the tpo, Navi defending its title and more. There have been a few teams whose run was cut short, so we won’t see G2’s mONESY in the Major playoffs. Nor will we see the start-studded Team Vitality roster that has been making waves throughout the scene.
