After a disappointing quarter-final finish at the Birch Cup in Gdansk, Poland, fnatic took the jump over to Philadelphia for one last shot at laying claim to a Major berth.

En route to their trophy hoist, fnatic took down a slew of fellow European sides, first sending Metizport home before scraping past BIG in the quarter-finals. Once down to the final four, the stakes became clear, as the winner of the event would be guaranteed a place at the Major.

fnatic continued their run with a 2-0 victory over DraculaN Season 2 champs OG, setting up a best-of-five grand final against 9INE. Neither side was able to find success on their map pick, with the two teams trading their selections to force the Train decider. After a tight 6-6 half to kick off the final map, fnatic found an edge on the offense, pulling ahead to a 13-9 to book their Major ticket at 9INE's expense.
