The other highly rated teams in the 1-1 bracket rose to the challenge and advanced to the qualifying round, but Eternal Fire fell behind.

Eternal Fire is facing the risk of being eliminated entering the third day of competition.

Eternal Fire is at risk of being eliminated from the Perfect World Shanghai Major after losing convincingly to Sashi in a match in the 1-1 bracket of Europe RMR B.

The Turkish team started RMR with a win over Aurora, but then lost to 3DMAX in a match that went to double overtime, causing them to miss their chance to qualify for the Major on the first day.

Currently, Eternal Fire's hopes of attending the Major are increasingly distant when Sashi easily won on the Inferno map. With slow play and excellent "card reading" ability, Sashi had complete control over the early stages of the map.

Although Eternal Fire showed signs of improvement at the end of the first half to equalize 6-6, everything completely collapsed when they switched to the T-side. A mistake when throwing smoke too deep in the second gunfight round was taken advantage of by Sashi, thereby quickly ending the match.

Meanwhile, other top teams such as Spirit, HEROIC and Virtus.pro all easily passed their matches to advance to the qualifying round in bracket 2-1.

Dzhami "⁠Jame⁠" Ali's team had the hardest time out of this group, as 9 Pandas made the match tense by winning both rounds of pistols. However, Virtus.pro still ended the match with a score of 13-10, leaving Eternal Fire as the only team in the group of bright candidates to fail in the best-of-one series on the second day of competition. .
