There will also be a Regional Major Ranking tournament held before each event in Europe, CIS, North America, South America, and Asia\/Oceania.\u00a0 Based on the email, Valve is specifically targeting late May for the first events and early November for the second Major. The RMR events are reportedly targeting early April and late September dates to tie into their respective Major.\u00a0 Tournament organizers interested in submitting a proposal for the Major spots or one of the RMR events in 2022 reportedly have until the end of June to get in contact with Valve. The deadline for 2023 event submissions will reportedly remain open until the end of November.\u00a0 The only specification listed in the email from the developer was noting any orgs interested in hosting the events should be able to do so in a \"time zone convenient for a significant proportion of CS:GO customers.\u201d There was also a push to utilize the two \u201cprime time\u201d slots Valve has isolated for the community, which center around either 9am CT or 2pm CT. This is all part of Valve\u2019s return to a Major-centric CS:GO scene, starting with the PGL Stockholm Major, which will run from Oct. 23 to Nov. 7. It will feature a $2 million prize pool, the largest in CS:GO history, and is set to be the first physical Major since the StarLadder Berlin Major, which concluded in September 2019.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/27100138\/StarLadder1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/402087"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1706"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=402087"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/402087\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":402093,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/402087\/revisions\/402093"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/165052"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=402087"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=402087"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=402087"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=402087"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=402087"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=402087"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=402087"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
