JW and flusha passed the open qualification.

The first European open qualification for the RMR to the BLAST.tv Paris Major has come to an end, and eight teams earned slots in the closed qualification.

Eight teams won BO3 matches in the 1/16 of the open qualification and will continue to compete at the event in the next closed qualifier. Here is the list of the teams:

Which players qualified for the closed qualifier?

The most interesting moment of this open qualification was the return of Jesper JW Wecksell and Robin flusha Rönnquist. The veterans of the team fnatic passed the qualification as part of the team they founded, EYEBALLERS. EYEBALLERS achieved intermediate success and it will be interesting to see the Swedes potentially face a tier-1 team.

It's also worth paying attention to B8, which has shown stability. Last year, the Ukrainians succeeded in qualifying for the European RMR, and now they are already in the closed qualification and have every chance of repeating their success.

In addition to JW and flusha, another veteran who passed the qualification is Wictor TaZ Wojtas with his project HONORIS.

Who was left a step away from the slot?

The most famous teams (apart from the four French teams we talked about in this article) that stopped just short of the closed qualifiers are GODSENT, Eternal Fire and MASONIC.

The new Swedish lineup GODSENT has not yet been able to show the level they should be at. The team lost to Forward Gaming in the round of 1/32. However, this is not a disaster for the Swedes; they will most likely be able to qualify for the closed qualifiers through the second open qualifiers, but it will still be challenging for GODSENT.

Eternal Fire went even further, but it can already be said that the roster changes have not been beneficial to the Turkish team. Efire lost to the 500 team in the round of 1/16, and we expect to see them in the second open qualifiers.

As for MASONIC, they just had no luck in the match to advance. The fight with Into the Breach was very close on both maps. We can expect to see MASONIC in the second open qualifiers.

When will the second open qualifier take place?

The second European open qualifier will start today right after the finish of the matches of the first qualifiers. It will involve teams that have been eliminated from the first qualifier.
