Austin will be the host city for the Counter-Strike Austin Major esports tournament in June 2025.
Taking advantage of getting two games on opening weekend, NTMR beat Spacestation Gaming on Sunday to become the first team to improve to 2-0 in the Overwatch Champions Series North America Stage 2.

After sweeping Sakura Esports on Saturday, NTMR needed four maps on Sunday to get by Spacestation after dropping Ilios Control 2-0 to open the match. NTMR rebounded with three straight wins: 3-1 on Circuit Royal Escort, 3-2 on Suravasa Flashpoint and 144.16m to 53.27m on Runasapi Push.

In the day’s other match, Geekay Esports swept Supernova in the first match for each team. Geekay took Ilios Control 2-0 to open the match, then won 1-0 on Circuit Royal Escort and closed it out 131m to 97.82m on Runasapi Push.

The tournament, played online, features eight teams. The regular-season round robin will conclude on June 15, with six qualifying teams heading to the double-elimination regional playoffs.

The top three teams will advance to the Midseason Championship and North America Stage 3. The prize money has yet to be determined.

Play resumes with Week 2 beginning next Saturday.
