MSI is well-underway, with a remaining 10 teams still in the tournament at the time of this writing. Only Estral Esports and GAM Esports have been eliminated in the first round of the Loser’s Bracket.

T1 and Top Esports are the first to qualify, having made flawless victories through their respective groups to qualify.

Which Teams have QUALIFIED for MSI 2024 Bracket Stage?

First off, we have the top seeds from each of the four major regions. Additionally, two teams from each group from the Play-In Stage will also advance, for a total of 8 teams to compete in the Bracket Stage.

  • Gen.G [LCK Spring 1st seed]
  • Bilibili Gaming (BLG) [LPL Spring 1st seed]
  • G2 Esports [LEC Spring 1st seed]
  • Team Liquid [LCS Spring 1st seed]
  • T1
  • Top Esports
  • PSG Talon
  • Fnatic

FORMAT for MSI 2024 Bracket Stage

MSI Bracket Stage will include the top 8 teams at the event. It will be run as a double-elimination bracket, with all games being in Bo5 format.

1st seeds from each of the four major regions completely skip the Play-In Stage, affording them more preparation time.

The winner of MSI 2024 will automatically qualify for Worlds 2024. This also counts as an additional slot for their region, as it will not count towards the existing count. However, the winner will also have to qualify for their regions’ domestic Summer Split Playoffs.

The runner-up region at MSI 2024 Bracket Stage will earn an additional qualifying slot for their region for Worlds 2024.
