With the continued evolution of the competitive landscape and teams vying for points counting towards their Valve Regional Standings, which now subsequently will fully decide their fate for the next Counter-Strike Major invites, we’re today adding third-place decider matches to previously announced tournaments.
ESL Pro League Season 22, IEM Chengdu 2025 and IEM Kraków 2026 have all been previously announced for the required Additional Information. Today, we’re bringing an update to these tournaments; they will now feature a best-of-three third-place decider match. This means that starting from ESL Pro League Season 22 and onwards, all of our Tier 1 and Wildcard tournaments will feature a third-place decider match prior to the Grand Final on Sunday.
As a result, fans watching from home or attending in person can look forward to two tournament matches taking place on Sunday. This also means we’re removing the showmatch from the mentioned tournaments.
