The wait is almost over. PGL has officially locked in the opening matchups and Stage 1 schedule for the highly anticipated 2026 Singapore Major. The action kicks off on November 23, bringing top-tier CS2 back to Asia.

  • HEROIC vs. Imperial

  • 9z vs. Lynn Vision

  • Ninjas in Pyjamas vs. M80

  • 100 Thieves vs. Chinggis Warriors

  • Liquid vs. BC.Game

  • PARIVISION vs. DENDELE

  • FaZe Clan vs. Wildcard

  • Eternal Fire vs. FlyQuest

Storylines You Can’t Miss

The November 2 Valve Regional Standings (VRS) were used to seed these matchups, and they've given us some absolute popcorn-worthy headliners right out of the gate.

Liquid vs. BC.Game: This is without a doubt the most anticipated match of the day. A stacked North American powerhouse in Liquid (featuring NAF and EliGE) will be going toe-to-toe with BC.Game. If you've been following the roster madness, you know BC.Game is fielding a lethal international squad featuring s1mple and Magisk. Watching s1mple back on the Major stage is going to be cinematic.

100 Thieves vs. Chinggis Warriors: 100 Thieves is back in the server with true CS royalty. Seeing the legendary Danish duo of device and gla1ve, alongside FaZe veteran rain, take on the Mongolian up-and-comers in Chinggis Warriors will be a massive test of experience versus raw, unbridled aggression.

FaZe Clan vs. Wildcard: A revamped FaZe, anchored by frozen and Twistzz, looks to make a deep run. They'll need to bypass a hungry Wildcard squad first to set the tone for their Singapore campaign.
