Complexity earn Legends spot for Copenhagen Major
Just as the Americas RMR has concluded, Valve has released their updated rankings which have listed Complexity as the best team within the Americas region.
With Complexity earning the top spot, they will be able to bypass the Challengers stage, now known as the Opening stage, and go directly to the Legends stage, also now known as the Elimination stage.
Valve recently changed the seeding structure for the Regional Major Ranking events as well as for the Major, eliminating the seeding earned based on performances at the Major qualification LANs. Under the old system for the Americas RMR, teams that went 3-0 would then play in a one-off seeding match for the Legends spot.
The current seeding for the Americas RMR is as follows;
1: Complexity
2: FURIA
3: Imperial
4: paiN
5: Legacy
The seedings for the entire Major are as follows;
