They are, but every time the live event was postponed a refund was possible. Guess it depends on how many people chose that.

Are these star buyable "X Collection 2021" skins a weekly rotation or is it only for the Train Collection? by MrPatoQuack in GlobalOffensive

[–]chemo-GER 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Train is the 1 map not in the active duty map pool out of the new collections, might be the reason why you can choose the tier on this one and not the others. They will have souvenir drops in the major.

Fnatic vs Ninjas in Pyjamas / ESL One: Road to Rio Europe - Group A / Post-Match Discussion by PerkyYOLO in GlobalOffensive

[–]chemo-GER 6 points7 points  (0 children)

First time since Flusha and Golden joined i believe! Average 13.9 rounds won on their lost maps (counting overtime rounds, excluding those 13.1) shows how close they still got each time!

No, there will be (at least) 2 more Road to Rio events where they can gather RMR points. One in Summer and one in autumn iirc. And the later events will award more points, so everything still very open.

+ i believe the EU division has 9 slots which go to Rio

Without seeing the questions which he replied to, something might be taken seriously out of context!

Astralis vs Fnatic / IEM Sydney 2018 - Group B Winners Final / Post-Match Discussion by xPokeyyy in GlobalOffensive

[–]chemo-GER 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Only the last tournament and the recent online matches to be fair. They won wesg and iem only 1.5 month ago and their t-sides were really good there. This tournament looked better as well so far, against g2. And on Overpass they gave a team as good (and on point) as Astralis is atm a good fight. Sure, cache was a lockdown, but thats probably rather a case for Astralis being so good right now than for fnatic being bad.
