TheMongolz invited to Elisa Masters Espoo

20-8-2024 13:02

The World No. 11 are making the trip to Finland straight after IEM Rio in October.

The MongolZ broke into the top ten of the world rankings in July

The MongolZ are the latest addition to the Elisa Masters Espoo 2024 team list, joining 9z and ENCE to become the third top 30 team to receive an invite.

B8 and home team JANO will also attend, after winning Elisa Invitational Spring and Elisa eSM, respectively, leaving just three slots to be filled.

9z invited to Elisa Masters Espoo

Garidmagnai "⁠bLitz⁠" Byambasuren and company ended last season in the top ten of the world rankings after winning YaLLa Compass 2024, but have not quite managed to build on that success after the break.

They were upset by 3DMAX in the Skyesports Championship final, and — despite overcoming Eternal Fire and Spirit — would have been disappointed by a 9-12th placed exit from IEM Cologne after losses to paiN and SAW.

The MongolZ have ESL Pro League Season 20 and IEM Rio in their calendars before Elisa Masters, with Rio's grand final taking place just three days before action is set to kick off in Espoo on October 16.

The team list for the Finnish event is now:

The MongolZ

ENCE

JANO

Well since they made such a deep run it'll be interesting to see if they keep up the pace or fall off the face of the earth like after Cph major.

nono

flair+take meds

so every event needs to have every top15 team and 1,000,000€ prize pool?

2024-08-20 13:21

no but at least they could've invited some decent teams from top20

there is still 2 invitations left i think they will get a top10 team there

2024-08-20 13:28

And that qualifier has 4 invites to playoffs, so we might get another good team this way

2024-08-20 13:41

They have invited every top20 team, the thing is that those teams just don't see the prize pool to be high enough to waste for the prep etc... and Elisa masters isnt making any money so they really cant pump up the prize pool to 500k can they?

2024-08-20 16:46

classic mongolian delusion. they might get close but choke it like always

2024-08-20 17:59

Even saw can deep run. Why mongolz cant?? If moment is right they can beat any t1 team. Its not delusion. Bcs they choke a lot. We just knew that they can do more than this.

2024-08-20 18:28

SAW can because snap tap and theyre not sponsored by 1xbet to throw games

2024-08-20 18:59

Is that your assumption or u heard that from others. If you r not from 1xbet u r the 1 who is delulu.

2024-08-20 19:22

Just not worth to attend with teams of this quality, unlucky molgolz clears tho

2024-08-20 13:39

I mean, this is a decent chance for teams outside of the top 10 to farm some Valve rating. Regards

WELCOME TO FINGOLIA BABY

2024-08-20 19:36

will you be there? xD

2024-08-21 18:28

I hope to see SAW invited too

2024-08-20 21:41

This should be a really fun event for people who aren't fixated on categorizing events on some random tier level. Outside JANO (who will be a fun team to watch since they are not only all Finnish but have Allu) all the announced teams so far not only have potential but are playing in a perfect setting for their current form. -Mongolz and 9z aren't use to be one of the betting favorites for a tournament. Also cool to see 3 teenagers (1 being 17) on Mongolz. Seem like they have some good heads on their shoulders. -ENCE might get a little home crowd advantage with Podi being on their team.. they desperately need a tournament to look back on positively right now that is on a lan setting. -B8 just trying to keep improving and its always fun to watch young guns like npl and headtrick. Hope to see 1 more top 10 team invited (SAW or Astralis) and also a team like Eternal Fire or FlyQuest.
