With the conclusion of the Group Stage of the IEM Fall RMR event, the teams from the CIS region that will be making it to the PGL Stockholm Major are confirmed. Group winners NaVi and Gambit were already confirmed to be playing at the Major, but after the Groups, they ensure they will be going to the Stockholm Major as Legends.
From Group A, Team Spirit too had qualified and after winning the tie-breaker, Entropiq too confirmed their Contender spot at the Major.
In Group B, Virtus. pro fought tooth and nail with K23 and emerged victorious at the end of things at the end of the 3-way tiebreaker. They finished in the top 2 in Group B, above INDE IRAE and placing above K23 meant they will be going to the Major ahead of them. They were in hot water before the event but a good performance here sees them through to the Major.
Whether they will take the Challenger Spot or the Contender one, remains to be seen as Team Spirit are also in contention for the spots and whoever places higher at the end of IEM Fall will confirm a Challenger spot.
The Group Stage hence decides all the slots from the CIS region for the Major in Stockholm. Renegades too had confirmed their qualification earlier yesterday, making it a total of 6 teams confirmed for the Major.
- Natus Vincere – Legends
- Gambit – Legends
- Virtus.pro – Challenger/Contenders
- Team Spirit – Challenger/Contenders
- Entropiq – Contenders
- Renegades – Contenders
