The next RMR to Perfect World Shanghai Major is likely to be the last one. This was reported by an OverDrive insider on the X platform. His information caused a wave of discussion in the Counter-Strike 2 community.
There is a possibility that the future majors will be closed tournaments. This means that teams will be able to get to it only by invites. This format could significantly change the traditional system of qualification and preparation.

Changes in the tournament format could affect many teams. They may lose the chance to participate through open qualifications. The community of players and fans is now actively discussing the possible consequences of these innovations. Already iNation disbanded their roster because of the decision on the lack of open qualifications for the major.
Until the official confirmation there are only rumors and speculations. But if the information is confirmed, it will be a significant turn in the history of Counter-Strike.
