IEM Chengdu 2024 will be the first tournament after this year’s most significant battle at PGL Major Copenhagen 2024. It will feature sixteen teams fighting for a prize pool of $250,000 and a slot at another tournament called IEM Cologne 2024. Half of the teams participating here also participated in the PGL Major; the rest are yet to prove themselves. Team FaZe is here, and since the only team they lost in the Grand Final of PGL Major was Natus Vincere, and they’re not here, is it FaZe to take a more minor but still a trophy here? We will see it very soon. The tournament will be held from April 8 to April 14.
