Gamers Club open signups RMR qualifiers
BLAST have announced signups for the two BLAST.tv Paris Major North American open qualifiers, with the European TO enlisting the help of Gamers Club to run the events in North America. This will be Gamers Club's first big test in North America after coming to the region in September 2021 and will break the streak of FACEIT and ESEA being the go-to server providers for Major qualifiers in North America.
BLAST's decision to partner with Gamers Club had initially raised eyebrows in the community as Gamers Club only expanded operations to North America in September 2021 and has never been responsible for an event of this magnitude outside of their home region. Importantly, the server host's infrastructure was called in question as qualifiers they have previously hosted, like the FiReLEAGUE 2022: North America Open Qualifier, have only offered Dallas to NA teams. This was a cause for concern for the RMR open qualifiers as Dallas alongside Chicago and Denver is what is expected at minimum for most qualifiers.
Fortunately, this appears to all be water under the bridge as the two qualifiers are confirmed are confirmed to be using the industry standard list of Dallas, Chicago, and Denver.
With the stage and the servers set, remember to sign up for the first and second qualifiers for your shot at qualifying to the Paris Major!
