After a 1-2 defeat to the Kosovian roster, FaZe created history by becoming the first-ever Major winner to crash out of the next with a 0-3 tally.

Being North America's leading CS:GO roster, carried the hopes of a major region on their shoulders. Fans were delighted to see the team's first-place finish at the Road to Rio 2022: American RMR and their recent acquisition of YEKINDAR. Upon entering the tournament, however, Liquid had a rough time. They managed to claim wins over NAVI and Sprout. However, their defeats to MOUZ and Heroic pushed them closer to elimination as they ended up facing Team Spirit for the tournament's last Champions Stage slot. Team Liquid's qualification for the Champions Stage would mean that the Americas region would have an extra Legends slot for the upcoming Major. They also had the support of former players like Twistzz and FalleN, which encouraged the Brazilian audience to cheer for them. However, after an exhilarating three-map entertainer, Spirit closed out the series with a 16-13 win against Liquid on Ancient, shattering the hopes of an entire region.
