BLAST Open: North American Qualifier Fall 2026

About the tournament

North American Qualifier Fall 2026 is the North American closed qualifier for BLAST Open Fall 2026 in Counter-Strike 2, part of BLAST’s regional route into the Porto event later in the season. It brings together the region’s qualified teams in a compact playoff bracket played entirely in BO3, with seven matches deciding who advances. The qualifier runs from July 9 to July 12, 2026, and the reward is a place in the next stage of the BLAST Open circuit.
