The game developer has adjusted the invitation number based on the results of the Blast.tv Austin Major.

Valve has just updated "Supplemental Rulebook" of the Major CS2, announced the invitation to the area for the Starladder Budapest Major - based on the achievements of the teams in Austin.

Invitation rate allocation according to the phase:

Stage 3 (Stage 3):

🇪🇺 Europe: 5 interest

🌎 America: 2

🌏 Asia: 1 capacity

Stage 2 (Stage 2):

🇪🇺 Europe: 5 interest

🌎 America: 2

🌏 Asia: 1 capacity

Stage 1 (Stage 1):

Not yet announced (TBD): 16

Earlier, in Austin Major, phase 1 was divided at 6/6/4 (Europe 6, America 6, Asia 4), but the unknown Valve in detail this 16 capacity shows that the possibility of the regional division system will change.

Reason for adjustment:

Compared to Austin, Europe takes a capacity in phase 3 to the hands of the Americas - after Pain and Furia are in the top 8.

In phase 2, Europe and Asia each increased by 1, and the Americas decreased to only 2.

Change in squad regulations:

Valve also adds a new regulation on the registration formation:

"The registered squad must match the invited squad ('Core Lineup')

The team is allowed to register a reserve player, but if this person replaces the main member, it is not allowed to change the area of ​​the main squad ”.

In other words, 5 players in the VRS list at the time of receiving the invitation will be considered a "core squad". The teams can only register one more reserve, as long as they do not change the area of ​​the team according to VRS.
