Eternal Fire’s success in securing a place at IEM Rio was the result of their remarkable performance in the Europe closed qualifier. They displayed impressive skill and determination, achieving convincing 2-0 victories over B8, Cloud9, and Falcons. This exceptional performance allowed them to progress through the upper bracket without facing a single defeat.
In the upcoming consolidation final, Marco ‘Snappi’ Pfeiffer’s team has one final opportunity to secure their ticket to Brazil. The winner of the lower bracket match between Heroic and Fnatic will determine their opponent.
In Serbia, at BetBoom Dacha Belgrade, both Eternal Fire and Falcons participated in the qualifier. They excelled in the LAN event’s Play-in stage and navigated their way through the upper bracket of the Rio qualifier.
During the qualifiers, Eternal Fire dominated their matches, easily defeating B8 and Cloud9. In contrast, Falcons faced tough challenges from OG and 3DMAX, engaging in closely contested matches that went down to the wire with a few nail-biting maps.
