This match is scheduled for <strong>12:30 CET <\/strong>this <strong>Tuesday<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3>Liquid vs Complexity<\/h3>\n<div class=\"_44tKOV3EvA2Ivv21VkJmnQ==\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/blix.gg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/557a51eb0c95974c.png\"> <span><\/span><\/div>\n<p class=\"lNHCeuVfx3n+4j-MEOe3bg==\"><em>Liquid vs. Complexity &#8211; IEM Cologne 2024<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Two North American teams are in a lower bracket <strong>semi-final<\/strong> game here. Both teams have lost one game in this tournament so far, and now it&#8217;\u0099s their chance to show who the better team from NA is. This match is scheduled for<strong> 12:30 CET <\/strong>this <strong>Tuesday<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3>Natus Vincere vs SAW<\/h3>\n<div class=\"_44tKOV3EvA2Ivv21VkJmnQ==\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/blix.gg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/4203435c237e3506.png\"> <span><\/span><\/div>\n<p class=\"lNHCeuVfx3n+4j-MEOe3bg==\"><em>Natus Vincere vs. SAW &#8211; IEM Cologne 2024<\/em><\/p>\n<p>It doesn&#8217;\u0099t matter who wins here; both teams already deserved their spot at the <strong>playoff stage<\/strong>. Loser teams will go to the <strong>quarterfinal, <\/strong>and the winning team will go straight to the <strong>semi-final<\/strong>. These two teams never met each other. <strong>SAW <\/strong>is a young team that is hot at this point, and they have a six-match win streak. Their win against <strong>G2 <\/strong>with a <strong>score of 2-0 <\/strong>shows that they can also beat top teams. <strong>On<\/strong> the other side, Natus Vincere seems to be close to the shape they&#8217;\u0099ve been before, back when they won <strong>PGL Major<\/strong>. It will be an excellent match to watch, and let&#8217;\u0099s see if the young, hot team <strong>SAW <\/strong>can surprise us with one more win over one of the best teams in the world. This match is scheduled for <strong>14:45 CET<\/strong> this <strong>Tuesday<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3>G2 vs paiN<\/h3>\n<div class=\"_44tKOV3EvA2Ivv21VkJmnQ==\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/blix.gg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/4179739167984d58.png\"> <span><\/span><\/div>\n<p class=\"lNHCeuVfx3n+4j-MEOe3bg==\"><em>G2 vs. paiN &#8211; IEM Cologne 2024<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Elimination match and last chance for both teams. <strong>G2 <\/strong>clearly a favorite here and much more experienced team but <strong>paiN <\/strong>was doing great for some time and they might surprise everyone. Both teams will give their all to keep themselves in tournament so this match is going to be fire to watch. This match is scheduled for <strong>14:45 CET<\/strong> this <strong>Tuesday<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3>MOUZ vs Vitality<\/h3>\n<div class=\"_44tKOV3EvA2Ivv21VkJmnQ==\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/blix.gg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/8c8058daa9486324.png\"> <span><\/span><\/div>\n<p class=\"lNHCeuVfx3n+4j-MEOe3bg==\"><em>MOUZ vs. Vitality &#8211; IEM Cologne 2024<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Both teams already got their playoff stage spot.

These two teams met at the <strong>Grand Final <\/strong>of <strong>ESL Pro League Season 19<\/strong> and it was <strong>MOUZ <\/strong>to win with a <strong>3-0 score<\/strong> in a confident way.
