After FaZe and Spirit secured a spot in the IEM Katowice playoffs this Sunday, it was ENCE and MOUZ's turn to celebrate a spot at Spodek Arena, venue for the Polish fans from Friday until Sunday. The traditional tournament runs until Sunday and will distribute US$1 million. There are still two spots left in the playoffs in Katowice, which will be decided this Tuesday.
The big story of the day was ENCE winning a spot in the playoffs. The team has four Poles in the line-up and it is the first time in eight years that a polish team has been able to play at the arena. The team led by Danish Lukas "gla1ve" defeated Nikola "NiKo"'s G2 by 2-0, at Mirage (13-8) and Anubis (13-7).
Another highlight this Monday was the elimination of Vitality, top1 team in the world. Mathieu "ZywOo"'s 60 eliminations were not enough to stop René "TeSeS" on Mirage, Anubis and Vertigo and Heroic managed to breathe at the tournament .
