Out of the twenty-four competing teams, only six of the toughest competitors remain. The six teams upsetted their competitors, avoided upsets and fought intense battles to secure their position in the playoffs.

The six qualified IEM Katowice 2024 Playoffs Teams are:

Quarterfinal Teams:

ENCE

The hometown heroes led by Gla1ve and the Legendary Polish Coach KUBEN, have qualified for IEM Katowice 2024 through the Play-In and Group stage after upsetting multiple teams including Astralis, Team Vitality, G2 Esports etc.

The experimental new squad, Team Falcons led by five-time major-winning coach Zonic has qualified for the playoffs after taking down Natus Vincere. They also took down Complexity on their way to the playoffs.

FaZe Clan

FaZe Clan has been recuperating since Twistzz’s departure. They comfortably secured their way until Group stage Finals where they struggled to keep up with the rejuvenated Team Spirit, ending as the 2nd seed of Group A.

G2 Esports 

G2 Esports has been struggling since the last two years. Despite featuring some of the best players worldwide, they haven’t been a consistently strong team. IEM Katowice did not start well for them.

Fortunately, m0nesy, NiKo and huNter coming alive helped them clutch the last seed of Group B.

Semifinal Teams:

Team Spirit

Team Spirit have dominated IEM Katowice 2024. They started with a 13-0 win over Apeks, 2-0 win over MongolZ to qualify for the Group stage and took down NaVi, Complexity and FaZe Clan to secure the first seed and Semifinals of IEM Katowice.

MOUZ

MOUZ has been on the rise recently and IEM Katowice 2024 is no different. They took down Cloud9, GamerLegion and ENCE to secure the Spodek Arena Day 2.
