Galorys beats DvS 2-1 in COD Mobile Masters

Galorys beat DvS 2-1 on July 8 in Call of Duty: Mobile Major Summer 2026 Stage 1, a result that locked DvS into the Masters group’s bottom four and pushed the team into the next round of placement matches, according to CoDMobileSports and Liquipedia tournament listings. CoDMobileSports posted the result on X on Wednesday, saying the loss guaranteed DvS a bottom-four finish in Masters. Liquipedia’s Stage 1 page shows Galorys in Group A at 4-3 and DvS, listed as Diavolos, at 1-5 after play through July 9. The tournament is part of Tencent Games and TiMi Esports’ Call of Duty: Mobile Major Summer 2026. ### Which tournament match was this? Call of Duty Mobile Major Summer 2026 began on June 25 and runs through Aug. 22, according to Liquipedia’s event page. The tournament features 15 teams and a prize pool of 1.8 million yuan, with Stage 1 splitting teams into two groups in a single round robin. Stage 1 Group A includes Galorys and DvS, which Liquipedia lists as Diavolos. (liquipedia.net) Liquipedia’s standings page shows Galorys at 4-3 with 10 points and Diavolos at 1-5 with 3 points after matches played through July 9. ### Why did a 2-1 score still matter so much? Stage 1 uses a Round 3 format in which all three maps are played regardless of whether a team has already taken the series, Liquipedia says. (liquipedia.net) That means a 2-1 result affects both match record and map differential in the standings. CoDMobileSports said on X that Galorys’ 2-1 win guaranteed DvS a bottom-four finish in Masters. (liquipedia.net) Liquipedia’s standings support that position, with Diavolos already on 1-5 and at the foot of Group A before the last listed July 10 and July 11 fixtures are completed. ### What does a bottom-four Masters finish trigger? (liquipedia.net) Stage 1 rules send the top four teams in the Masters group directly back into Stage 2 Masters, according to Liquipedia. The 5th- through 8th-place teams in Masters instead move into the Seat Decider, where they face top Challenger teams for places in the next Masters stage. (liquipedia.net) Seat Decider Round 1 pairs the 7th- and 8th-place Masters teams against the 1st- and 2nd-place Challenger teams on July 12. Round 2 then matches the 5th- and 6th-place Masters teams against the Round 1 winners later the same day. ### What exactly is next for DvS? July 12 is the next confirmed date on the Seat Decider schedule. (liquipedia.net) Liquipedia lists Round 1 at 15:00 CST and 17:00 CST, followed by Round 2 at 19:00 CST and 21:00 CST. The Seat Decider format gives the Masters-side team a map advantage in the 7th-place and 8th-place Round 1 matches, according to Liquipedia. (liquipedia.net) Winners move on to Round 2, while losers drop down to Challenger. ### Where do Galorys and DvS stand now? Galorys, a Brazilian esports organization, is listed by Liquipedia at 4-3 in Group A after the DvS result. (liquipedia.net) That record left the team inside the top four on the standings snapshot available Thursday. DvS, listed as Diavolos on Liquipedia, sat 8th in Group A at 1-5 with a 3-15 map record on the same page. (liquipedia.net) CoDMobileSports said that standing meant a bottom-four Masters finish and a decider match this week rather than a direct place in Stage 2 Masters. July 12 is the next milestone for DvS, with Seat Decider matches scheduled from 15:00 CST. (liquipedia.net) Galorys still has its Stage 1 placement to finalize, while DvS will need to play through the decider bracket to determine its next stage. (liquipedia.net)
