Parken Challenger Championship Season 2 was a small LAN Counter-Strike 2 tournament held from March 8–10, 2026, in Copenhagen, Denmark. The prize pool amounted to $11,635. The event featured 12 teams with open registration, including 100 Thieves (coach gla1ve), Johnny Speeds, Sashi, Voca, FOKUS, and others. The format consisted of a round-robin Bo1 group stage followed by a double-elimination Bo3 playoff.
The tournament was won by Betclic, who defeated AM 2–0 in the grand final. GamerLegion, the previous champions of this tournament, did not participate in Season 2.
100 Thieves, who have been very hyped lately and were aggressively pushing their way to the Major, now have very slim chances. They lost to AM in the lower bracket, finishing 5th–6th in the tournament, which is bad news. Their path to the Major is now unlikely.
An interesting incident involved the team Avanti. Before the tournament, one of their players was allegedly offered to throw a match ("322") since the team supposedly wasn’t going to win anything. The player refused and made the offer public. Despite this, Avanti lost all their matches at the tournament and did not advance to the playoffs.
