Chinggis Warriors at the PGL Singapore Major 2026
Chinggis Warriors won two Mongolian events in October with tikuak back on the team, but they start Singapore as the second-lowest seed in Stage 1.
Chinggis Warriors are a Mongolian team and one of the Asian invites to the PGL Singapore Major 2026. They are #55 in Valve's Regional Standings of November 2 with 1272 points, which makes them the 15th of 16 seeds in Stage 1. Their invite is confirmed: no team declined before PGL's November 6 deadline. They played the Austin Major in 2025, and they reached Singapore after a busy October in Asia.
Roster and invite

| Coach | Redka |
| Region | Asia |

The lineup changed twice this fall. On September 27, 2026, tikuak rejoined Chinggis Warriors. He had moved to The MongolZ in July, and they benched him in mid-September. He had already played for Chinggis Warriors from November 2025 to May 2026. At that point HLTV and esports.ru listed the five as hasteka, sk0R, ROUX, yAmi and tikuak. By MESA Pro Series Fall (October 8-11) cool4st and fury5k had taken over from hasteka and yAmi; Ensigame dates their arrival to October 1. HLTV's November 2 invite list, as carried by EsportNow (updated November 6), has sk0R, ROUX, cool4st, fury5k and tikuak, with Redka as coach. PGL has not published official Major rosters yet, and for fury5k and tikuak it would be a first Major.
Model odds
Chinggis Warriors are seed 15 of 16 in Stage 1 (November 24-27). Chances from our model:
| Outcome | Chance |
|---|---|
| 3-0 in Stage 1 | 2.8% |
| Advance from Stage 1 (3-0, 3-1 or 3-2) | 20% |
| 0-3 in Stage 1 | 29% |
| Reach the playoffs (top 8) | <1% |
| Win the Major | <1% |
The model plays the event 20,000 times with Valve's Swiss pairing rules; each map win chance comes only from VRS points (Valve's expected-score formula, softened), so it knows nothing about form, maps or roster news. It is not a betting tip. Calculated November 8, 2026. Play it out yourself in the Major simulator.
Form going into Singapore
- October 2026, MESA Pro Series Halloween Cup: They beat the ONE 2-0 and 5star 2-1. After losing 1-2 to The Audacity, they beat them 2-1 in a rematch on October 29.
- October 2026, MaceMedia VOID Autumn Cup (China, LAN): Runners-up. They beat WXM 2-1, NEXVOID 2-1 and Rare Atom 2-0. Lynn Vision beat them 2-1 in the upper-bracket final, after Chinggis took Nuke 13-11, and won the best-of-five grand final 3-0.
- October 2026, ESL Challenger League Season 52 Asia-Pacific Cup 3: They lost 1-2 to Lynn Vision in the upper bracket on October 8, won three lower-bracket series, and were eliminated 0-2 by Alter Ego in the lower-bracket semifinal.
- October 2026, MESA Pro Series Fall 2026: Champions. They lost their first series 1-2 to 5star, then won four straight, the last a 2-1 over 5star in the grand final.
- October 2026, ESN Fall Showdown 2026 (Mongolia): Champions. They beat The Huns 2-0 in the final (13-7 Dust2, 13-11 Inferno), and the result moved them up to 7th in Asia's VRS. HLTV's report lists hasteka and yAmi, so this title may have come before cool4st and fury5k took over.
Strengths
- They win at home. Chinggis Warriors won two Mongolian titles in early October, beating The Huns and 5star in the finals.
- They can push Lynn Vision. They won Nuke 13-11 against them in the VOID Autumn Cup upper-bracket final, and both of their earlier October series against Lynn Vision went to three maps. Lynn Vision are the other low seed from Asia in Stage 1.
- They play a lot. They played more than 20 series across five events in October alone, so they arrive with plenty of match practice.
Weaknesses
- Their opponents. Every series we found from October was against Asian teams. None of those teams is in the Singapore field except Lynn Vision.
- They lose the big matches. They lost all three October series against Lynn Vision, including a 0-3 in the VOID Autumn Cup grand final, and Alter Ego knocked them out of ECL Cup 3 2-0.
- Little time together. tikuak only returned on September 27 and cool4st and fury5k arrived in early October, so the invited five have played together for about five weeks.
Pick'Em verdict
Chinggis Warriors are a good Stage 1 0-3 candidate. Our VRS-only model gives them about 30% to go 0-3 and about 20% to advance, and the model Pick'Em uses them as one of its two 0-3 picks, along with Lynn Vision. Their October form does not change that much. The titles came against regional opposition, and the strongest Asian team they faced, Lynn Vision, beat them three times. A 0-3 pick is never safe in Bo1 openers. If you want to avoid that risk, leave them out instead of using an advance slot on them. You can run the Stage 1 bracket yourself in the Major simulator, and the Singapore Major hub has the full schedule.
