The Major LAN Qualifier will determine the eight challengers who will then take on the Cluj-Napoca Legends at the Major Championship, with legendary teams including Cloud9, Team Liquid and more slated to compete. The Major Championship marks the first time a Major will be held in North America with the best eSports pro teams from around the world competing for a $1,000,000 prize pool.

“The CS:GO Major Championship is a huge event for MLG and ZOWIE being that it is the first Major held in North America,” said Ronald Kim, eSports marketing at BenQ America Corp. “With our XL series 144hz PC eSports monitors featuring BenQ’s exclusive innovations, we can ensure teams will be able to compete at their fullest potential. The competition will be fierce, featuring some of the world’s greatest eSports pros, and we’re confident our displays will make the action shine.”

The XL series is purpose-built to provide FPS players with an ultra-smooth experience via improved resolutions, faster response times and 144hz refresh rate — so gamers can focus on the details that matter most.
