The battle for the last spots in the Elimination Stage is set to conclude.
Complexity is determined to finish their comeback from an initial 0-2 deficit. Day three of the Perfect World Shanghai Major’s Opening Stage has wrapped up, deciding the outcomes for six teams. FURIA, paiN, and GamerLegion have advanced to the next stage, while Rare Atom, Cloud9, and Virtus.pro have been eliminated from the tournament.
Three more teams will secure their progression on the final day of the Opening Stage. Six contenders remain, promising an exciting lineup of matches to close this phase of the Major.
The action will start with BIG facing Complexity. This match pits the less favored German team against Complexity, a squad widely regarded as one of the pre-stage frontrunners. Complexity has shown significant improvement as the tournament has progressed, while BIG comes into this game after a decisive defeat to FURIA. Momentum appears to favor the North American side.
Following that, MIBR will clash with FlyQuest in an encounter we haven’t seen before, adding an unpredictable edge to the day. While MIBR has underwhelmed in the competition, FlyQuest’s stunning drop from a promising 2-0 start leaves the series wide open.
The day will conclude with Wildcard facing Passion UA in a showdown where one of these underdog teams is guaranteed to advance. Wildcard delivered a commanding victory over Virtus.pro and narrowly lost to FURIA and Liquid in earlier matches, suggesting they are in solid form. Meanwhile, Passion UA enters this match after a tough loss to GamerLegion, hoping to turn their fortunes around.
