Are you guys excited for the Shanghai Major in December (First CS major in Asia)? The Chengdu crowd was crazy last time, treating CS pros like super celebrities lmao, could only imagine it will be better in Shanghai. I checked Huya and other Chinese streaming sites and looks like CS is still super popular.

IAmRichYouAreNot [#3]Why? Did u think masters shanghai was bad?
well i dont think they actually miced up the crowd and learnt from that this event in the studio playoffs
IEM chengdu is crazy,last time i go shanghai to watch the master,i think crowd not better than IEM chengdu(CS have been 15 years in china,valorant only 1 year), and i miss the final(everything done so i have to back chongqing),riot will make a cn champs 2026,hope it will be chongqing champs,shanghai a little expensive for me..
Warlordwibz [#6]Don't really follow CS, but how many asian teams participating? Since timezone is good might consider following a team and give it a watch.
3 in the main event,but the quals also include mena and Australia

3, every major all regions can increase their slots by getting into playoffs
donkkomong [#11]Kangkang said Chinese FPS* will own everyone. I agree with Valorant, but not CS.
I think you meant fps, yea it will be difficult to compete with EU since CS is a raw esport which means strats and tactics are from the ground up over many years like real sports. However, it’s possible since it just takes a breakthrough team like the Mongolz (Mongolian team) who worked their way up from like top 100 to like top 10
Anzaldinho [#13]I'm hoping for a MongolZ or TyLoo top 4 finish, if not at least top 8
No, Legendary Stage at most.
