TYLOO earn spot at IEM Chengdu over TheMongolz

Only one place at the event remains up for grabs following TYLOO's qualification.

TYLOO will have another opportunity to compete at a top LAN on home soil

TYLOO have laid claim to a place at IEM Chengdu after besting all three of their opponents in the Asia closed qualifier for the event.

The squad's victory coincides with their ongoing participation in eXTREMESLAND 2023 in Shanghai, with TYLOO snagging a playoff spot in the LAN event before turning their attention to concluding their online qualifier run.

This was not TYLOO's first attempt vying for a place at IEM Chengdu, as the team previously faltered in the event's China closed qualifier in November 2023 after a harrowing loss to compatriots Lynn Vision.

TYLOO kicked things off in the four-team qualifier with a narrow win over Wings Up, coming back from a map deficit in the series with duplicate 13-9 scorelines after dropping the first map in overtime. This victory segued into their first matchup with The MongolZ, where Garidmagnai "⁠bLitz⁠" Byambasuren's men shipped TYLOO off to the lower bracket with a straightforward 2-0 victory.

TYLOO went on to secure their shot for revenge against The MongolZ after setting aside their penultimate opponent, The Huns, in the lower bracket with a 2-0 win. Their rematch against the Mongolian side ultimately proved to be far more favorable than their initial meeting, as TYLOO claimed a 2-0 win with ease to snatch the sole place at IEM Chengdu up for grabs.
