Perfect World Shanghai Major 2024 Summary by BitSkins
China, as host of the CS2 Major, was up to the task, but today's article will not be about that. In addition to all the sportsmanship, it's the stats that count, both individual and team ones, which we want to mention in today's post.
Perfect World Shanghai Major 2024 was an outstanding show that cemented our love for Counter-Strike and added even more desire to watch the next top-level competition. Recap will not only be the culmination and closure of the entire event, but also quite a treat for those who, for various reasons, could not watch the Major.
Who was present?
16 teams competed for the title of the best in the world, the players gave it their best. Who could we see in action?
- Spirit
- FaZe
- G2
- MOUZ
- Vitality
- HEROIC
- Liquid
- The MongolZ
- FURIA
- Natus Vincere
- MIBR
- paiN
- GamerLegion
- 3DMAX
- BIG
- Wildcard
The order is not a coincidence, the first team on the list, which is Spirit, won the entire competition in the finals defeating FaZe 2:1 after incredible emotional moments on the last map.
Final
The final encounter was played in BO3 format (Best Of Three, the first team with two won maps wins the match). Team Spirit and FaZe have faced each other more than once, and the results were often surprising, so this time, too, it was unclear who would win the entire series.
- Map 1: Nuke, Spirit 13:8 FaZe
- Map 2: Ancient, Spirit 6:13 FaZe
- Map 3: Dust2, Spirit 13:11 FaZe
The last map proved to be crucial, and both teams fought to the end with all their might. In addition to the astronomically high level, the whole series was full of amazing individual plays.

Performance
Despite the uniqueness of this Major, it was not the most watched in history. The statistically low viewership (1.33M Peak Viewers) was not a big surprise. Unfavorable time conditions for European viewers significantly limited the possibilities. Perfect World Shanghai Major 2024 won't be even in the TOP 5 Most Watched Counter-Strike Tournaments.
