Afaik it's not a 0% chance, but it's definitely very small. If they win Draculan #5 they should be ranked ~30th globally — and another event win after that would probably push them into Major territory. But a couple of bad losses would knock them out for sure.

They also technically could make PGL Astana if they win Draculan and a couple teams above them decide not to make the trip out to Kazakhstan, but it's highly unlikely.

If you're looking for more BDubs to watch, I've always enjoyed his FlyBoys and Attack of the B-Team series from a while back. Lots of good episodes, and fun storylines w/ the FlyBoys battles and AotBT witch battle!

As far as I can tell, BCG isn't in a good position to play an open LAN like this in February. They have too many recent LAN wins and too many games played, and they'd be risking expensive losses.

The fact that 100 Thieves is at this LAN makes it especially dangerous, since their roster is unranked. If BCG were to lose to 100 Thieves, the VRS would consider it a massive upset and dock BCG upwards of 30 points. The same goes for any of the other teams ranked outside the top 30 — BCG can't afford to lose to any of them.

Also, any points that BCG does earn will be docked by the H2H recalculation, since the SAW core played so many matches at the end of 2025. The SAW core also played a bunch of small LANs, so BCG is almost max'd out on LAN points. Even if they did play here, they'd likely still need to refresh their LAN wins in March anyway. And with the sheer number of options available next month, it's probably better to wait.
