The PGL Major Singapore Stage 1 matchups are set. PGL's official Singapore Major event page shows Liquid against s1mple's GOSH as the headline opener on November 24, with all eight first-round games played as best-of-ones.
PGL shared the opening round on November 11. Seeding is based on the November 2 Valve Regional Standings (VRS). The last places in Stage 1 went down to the wire, as we covered in our PGL Major Singapore invite race report.
Who plays who in PGL Major Singapore Stage 1?
Two matches will run at the same time on two streams. The first games start at 12:00 local time, which is 05:00 CET. HLTV's report on the Stage 1 schedule says day one will feature 16 best-of-ones in total, so round two is played on the same day.
| Time (CET) | Team | Opponent |
|---|---|---|
| 05:00 | HEROIC | Imperial |
| 05:00 | 9z | Lynn Vision |
| 06:00 | Ninjas in Pyjamas | M80 |
| 06:00 | 100 Thieves | Chinggis Warriors |
| 07:00 | Liquid | GOSH (BC.Game) |
| 07:00 | PVISION (PARIVISION) | DENDELE |
| 08:00 | FaZe | Wildcard |
| 08:00 | Eternal Fire | FlyQuest |
Two of those names may look unfamiliar. GOSH is BC.Game and PVISION is PARIVISION. Both had to change names because of Singapore's betting rules. We explained the full list in our PGL Major Singapore team name changes story.

How does the Major format work?
PGL's page lists 32 teams across three Swiss stages. Stage 1 runs from November 24 to 27. Stage 2 follows from November 28 to December 1 with eight invited teams joining. Stage 3 runs from December 2 to 6, with every match a best-of-three. You can find every invited team in our PGL Major Singapore 32-team invite list.
Not every Stage 1 match is a single map. PGL's bracket shows the 2-0 and 0-2 pools from November 25 as best-of-threes, so every match that decides qualification or elimination is played over three maps. The 1-1 pool stays best-of-one, and the final 2-2 round on November 27 is a best-of-three.
The final eight teams move to the Singapore Indoor Stadium from December 10 to 13. The grand final is a best-of-five.
Which opening matches should you watch?
Liquid against GOSH is the big one. Insider Gaming's look at the opening matchups points out that s1mple will face Liquid, the team he played for in 2016. The same report says 100 Thieves will play their first-ever Major match, against Mongolian side Chinggis Warriors. We looked at Mongolia's growing scene in our PGL Ulaanbaatar 2027 event story.
Eternal Fire against FlyQuest closes the round at 08:00 CET. In a best-of-one, upsets are always possible. Winners move to the 1-0 pool and play again the same day. Losers carry that pressure into the rest of the week. The favourites for the title will wait until Stage 3. World No.1 MOUZ, for example, start later in the event, as we noted in our MOUZ world No.1 ranking report.
Other openers are worth a look too. The same Insider Gaming report says PVISION face a tricky game against DENDELE, who have beaten FURIA and G2 this season. NIP also have a tough start against M80. Every match will be shown on PGL's official streams.

Unlicensed betting brands cannot be promoted in Singapore. That is why BC.Game play as GOSH and PARIVISION play as PVISION.
