PGL Major Stockholm 2021
Info
Finally back at the Major after a two-year break! The PGL Major Stockholm 2021 features 24 of the top teams in the world and a massive $2,000,000 prize pool, the biggest in Counter-Strike history.
Our road here was not easy by any means — we began in the Closed Qualifiers for IEM Fall, the final RMR-event. After qualifying and returning to LAN at Stockholm, we grinded our way all the way to the finals and secured ourselves the Challenger status at the PGL Major.
The competition begins on the 26th of October with the New Challengers Stage, containing 16 teams in a Swiss Format. With ENCE having four newcomers to the Major, and us being the sole representatives of Poland, Finland, and Israel at the Major, there will surely be historic moments and interesting storylines to look out for.
