Ukrainian esports organization Natus Vincere faces the risk of missing a Counter-Strike Major for the first time in history. Due to a slump in results and a drop in the Valve Regional Standings, the team currently risks falling outside the European qualification zone.

According to current projections, NAVI has a 54% chance of missing out on a qualifying spot for the Singapore Major. The organization ranks 20th in the European standings—two spots behind German side BIG, who currently hold the final position for Stage 1 qualification.

The upcoming PGL Masters Bucharest will serve as a decisive factor for the final slot distribution:

  • A top-8 finish at the tournament increases NAVI's qualification chances to 88%.
  • A 9th–16th place finish drops their probability of qualifying to 35%.

The next challenge for the squad led by Aleksi "Aleksib" Virolainen will be ESL Pro League Season 24. The $1,000,000 tournament is scheduled to take place from October 3 to October 10 in Katowice, Poland.
