We’ve brought some shiny cosmetics your way in this week’s Store Update. Next week, get ready to dust off your favorite pair of dancing shoes, they’ll come in handy.STORE | VACUUM CHICNo need for flashbangs, just step into the Arena and let your drip do the talking with the Vacuum Chic Top. COMETA is also bringing the brand-new Countdown Companion Watch, so you never miss a beat while stealing that last Cashout.ESPORTS | THREE SHOWS, ONE SATURDAYClear the schedule, because on Saturday 25th July, the road to The Grand Major 2026 gets busy: APAC crowns its Cycle 3 champion, AMERICAS cuts sixteen down to eight, and EMEA fires the starting gun on its Cycle 3.APAC | TOO CLOSE TO CALL!4AM just topped Top 16 Qualification, 1st seed ahead of every big name in the region. KZ, still leading the season on 175 points, came through 4th. HIBOO, fresh off ripping the Cycle 2 title away, squeaked in 5th. And the DRG that kept banking points without ever lifting the trophy: 2nd, then 3rd, now 125 points and counting.Saturday’s Top 8 settles it. One KZ stumble opens the door, and both HIBOO and DRG are close enough to barge through it.Take your seat: WATCH HEREAMERICAS | SIXTEEN TEAMS, ONE TRAPDOORThe Top 16 is set, and the bracket wrote its own drama. NTMR are back, rebuilt around 2025 Grand Major champion Lasagna, and they are sharing a lobby with the previous players Team ED, the Major trio that reunited after the mid-season split. Unphased sit top seed as season leaders and reigning cycle champions. And spare a thought for Kansas City Pioneers: miss the Top 8 again and their golden-ticket math is done. No pressure!EMEA | IT’S YOUR TURNCycle 3 Open Qualifiers begin this Saturday, and this is the last call to be in them. Five Fears sit 75 points clear at the top, Teiko are plotting the comeback, and every team on that leaderboard walked in through the same door: the Open Qualifiers, the same kind of shot anyone can take, including you.Build your team and claim your spot: EMEA Sign UpThree shows in one Saturday, and somewhere in the middle of it the next great storyline gets written. Grab an OSPUZE, settle in, and ask yourself the only question that matters:CAN YOU REACH THE FINALS?
