The IEM Cologne play-in stage has been full of intense matchups, with Team Liquid, Complexity, and SAW securing their spots in the group stage after thrilling victories.

Liquid demonstrated their resilience and depth by overcoming FURIA 2-1 in a dramatic reverse-sweep, where the new and improved Counter-Strike 2 roster continued their upward spiral.

After dropping their Anubis pick, Liquid found themselves in trouble but bounced back on Nuke.

Key performances from Russel “?Twistzz?” Van Dulken and Roland “?ultimate?” Tomkowiak helped Liquid turn the tide.

The decider on Mirage saw Liquid dominate, with Justin “?jks?” Savage and Keith “?NAF?” Markovic anchoring both ends of the map, allowing Mareks “YEKINDAR” Ga?inskis and ultimate to roam freely.

Liquid’s strong map pool and adaptability carried them to victory, with a final win securing their spot in the top-16.

Complexity also punched their ticket to the group stage with a hard-fought 2-0 victory over Eternal Fire.

After a rough start on Vertigo, Complexity managed a comeback, fueled by a 1vs3 pistol clutch and stellar terrorist-side play from Jonathan “?EliGE?” Jablonowski.

The battle on Dust2 was even more intense, with Complexity and Eternal Fire trading rounds in a messy but entertaining match.

Michael “?Grim?” Wince’s 1vs2 ace clutch was pivotal, and despite some shaky moments, Johnny “?JT?” Theodosiou’s clutch in double overtime secured the win.

SAW became the first team to advance to the group stage from the play-in.

The Portuguese squad triumphed over BIG in a three-map series that culminated in a nail-biting Inferno decider.

After trading each other’s map picks, SAW came back from a deficit on Inferno, with Jo?o “?story?” Vieira’s 1vs2 clutch in the final round sealing the victory.

The win was a significant milestone for veterans Ricardo “?roman?” Oliveira and Christopher “?MUTiRiS?” Fernandes, who credited their younger teammates for the success.

While those three teams have qualified for the main event at IEM Cologne, FlyQuest, 3DMAX and ALTERNATE aTTaX were eliminated from the play-in stage on Thursday after suffering their second loss.

Friday will be the final day of the play-in stage, and the remaining 10 squads will battle it out for the last five places in the main event.

IEM Cologne 2024 kicks off on Wednesday, August 7, with eight matches in the opening round of the play-in stage. See ESB’s free Counter-Strike 2 betting picks for each fixture, with odds from the top esports bookmakers in United States.


Time Team 1 (Odds) Team 2 (Odds) Total Maps (O/U 2.5)
10:30am CEST FlyQuest (+110) BIG (-151.52) Over -120.48 | Under -120.48

FlyQuest and BIG have enough talent on their rosters to qualify for the IEM Cologne 2024 main event. However, it is tough to pick a winner between these two, and betting on the total maps market looks to be the safest play.

Time Team 1 (Odds) Team 2 (Odds) Total Maps (O/U 2.5)
10:30am CEST The Mongolz (-277.78) SAW (+200) Over +100 | Under -138.89

The Mongolz broke into the top 10 on the ESL world rankings for the first time, but they have since dropped to 11th. The Mongolian squad is ranked 18 spots higher than SAW and shouldn’t have much trouble beating the Portuguese roster.

The Mongolz -1.5 maps

Time Team 1 (Odds) Team 2 (Odds) Total Maps (O/U 2.5)
1:30pm CEST Heroic (-277.78) MIBR (+200) Over +100 | Under -138.89

Heroic will have to play at IEM Cologne with Volodymyr “Woro2k” Veletnjuk as a stand-in, which should make this clash against MIBR closer than first expected. Neither team enters this event in great form, so taking the underdog at the match line is the play.

MIBR +1.5 maps

1:30pm CEST 3DMAX (+100) 9z Team (-125) Over -113.64 | Under -109.89

9z Team surprised everyone when they finished in third-fourth place at IEM Dallas 2024, where they defeated the likes of Liquid, Vitality and MOUZ. 3DMAX have had little time to prepare for their IEM Cologne campaign after being added as a replacement for BetBoom Team on Monday. At -125 with top esports bookmakers, 9z represent great value.

Time Team 1 (Odds) Team 2 (Odds) Total Maps (O/U 2.5)
4:30pm CEST Complexity (-1666.67) ALTERNATE aTTaX (+700) Over +225 | Under -303.03

These teams are separated by 84 spots in the ESL world rankings, so it is no surprise that Complexity are -1666.67 favourites. There is no value in head-to-head or match-line betting with esports betting sites, so the round-line market is the value option.

Complexity -11.5 rounds

4:30pm CEST Eternal Fire (-188.68) Falcons (+137) Over -120.48 | Under -120.48

Falcons have yet to win an S-Tier tournament since their inception into Counter-Strike; however, recent results suggest they are improving steadily. Eternal Fire enter this series as favourites, but given the improvement of this Falcons squad, the underdogs can spring a surprise.

7:30pm CEST FURIA (-175.44) Imperial (+125) Over -120.48 | Under -120.48

FURIA are heavy favourites to beat Imperial, as they are 16 spots higher in the ESL world rankings. Following a strong performance at the Esports World Cup, it is hard to bet against this new and improved FURIA outfit.

7:30pm CEST paiN Gaming (+110) Team Liquid (-175.44) Over -120.48 | Under -120.48

Team Liquid have looked better under the leadership of Russel “Twistzz” Van Dulken, defeating Natus Vincere twice en route to qualifying for the BLAST Premier Fall Final. PaiN Gaming have been competing against South American teams in qualifiers and A-Tier events, so it is hard to see them beating Liquid in this series.

Team Liquid -3.5 rounds
