T1, Gen.G, G2 and Top Esports had already qualified for several days. Casually the noose is tightening and there are only 14 slots left to fill. In Europe, the situation is even more tense with only one remaining ticket... which will be played between Fnatic and Misfits Gaming (Vetheo).
No rookie among the qualifiers for the moment
For the moment, 10 teams are guaranteed to be at the Worlds. And among them, there is no rookie but only competitors more or less accustomed to playing big international tournaments. Some may frown on Isurus ... But this Latin American team played the worlds in 2019 (eliminated in Play-In) and also tasted several times at MSI.
On the other hand, the balance of power has changed significantly compared to last year. Isurus, G2, JD Gaming and Top Esports were therefore not at the rendezvous of Worlds 2021. But this time, these structures took a good lead!
