Not qualified: 33rd in the Americas on Valve's invitation standings of 2 Nov, 24 places outside.
The verdict
Americas has 9 slots: the top 2 go straight to Stage 3; 3rd place enters at Stage 2; 4th to 9th start in Stage 1.
What we said
Our last forecast before the cut, on 1 Nov, gave them <1% for the Major.
How these numbers are made
- Who goes to the Major is Valve's: its invitation standings of 2 Nov 2026, the slots taken down each region's standing, a roster no longer intact skipped.
- What we said is our last forecast made before the cut, as it stood that day, whether it was right or not.
- The whole method: the model, its sources, how well it has done and what it cannot see.
How they got here
30 matches in Valve's six-month window, 15 won, across 8 events, every figure Valve's own, from the published standings. 2 events since Valve's 2 Nov release are not in its numbers yet; they come first, with bo3's results.

How these numbers are made
- Matches, head-to-head changes, age weights and counting slots are Valve's, from its Regional Standings of 2 November 2026. Which event a match belongs to is our join to bo3's calendar.
- The events since that release are bo3's results and prize tables, and the estimate is ours: Valve's standings projected to the event's end with and without it. It is replaced by Valve's own figures once Valve publishes them.
- The whole method: the model, its sources, how well it has done and what it cannot see.
What the rating is made of
Valve's model averages four factors into a starting value, then adjusts it for head-to-head results. For BORRACHEIROS that is 726.2 plus 36.5.
The two parts
The head-to-head correction is 4.8% of the total. Almost everything about where they sit comes from the four factors, not from whom they have beaten.
The four factors
- 0.854 is the highest average of any roster Valve loaded and 0.000 the lowest, both printed in Valve's file. If the top pulls away, everyone below falls without playing worse.
- Valve ranked 376 rosters in this release: every lineup with a win and at least five matches in the six-month window.
- Head to head is added last: a Glicko adjustment, match by match in date order.
- Valve's file prints 726.2; the factors here are rounded to three decimals.
BORRACHEIROS: Below the median of the 15 chasing the slots on all four factors.
