The Perfect World Shanghai Major enters its playoff stage with eight elite teams battling for a $1.25 million prize pool in CS2's second-ever Major tournament. The single-elimination playoffs begin December 12, with all matches, including finals, played in best-of-three format.

Quarterfinal Matchups:

• The MongolZ vs. MOUZ
• Team Liquid vs. Team Spirit
• G2 Esports vs. HEROIC
• Team Vitality vs. FaZe Clan

Each team must win two maps to advance, creating intense competition as they vie for semifinal spots. Notable matchups include the highly anticipated clash between Team Vitality and FaZe Clan, while The MongolZ aim to continue their surprising tournament run against MOUZ.

The tournament features an optimal competitive format where teams must maintain consistent performance throughout each series, leaving no room for single-map upsets. With the world's top teams competing, every match promises high-level Counter-Strike action and strategic depth.

These playoff matches will determine which teams advance to compete for one of CS2's most prestigious titles and the lion's share of the prize pool. The winner will not only claim significant prize money but also establish themselves as a dominant force in professional CS2's early era.
