The Perfect World Shanghai Major is underway!
Unlike the PGL Copenhagen Major earlier this year, the Shanghai Major will feature all three stages played in front of a live audience, adding an exciting atmosphere to the competition.
The Opening and Elimination Stages are being held at the Shanghai World Expo Exhibition and Convention Center, where matches take place in two distinct venues within the expansive centre.
