Settlements before the last round of the group stage of ESL One Birmingham 2024 – what are the chances of Spirit and BetBoom Team?

The final round of the group stage will take place on April 24 ESL One Birmingham 2024 in Dota 2. The competition in both groups is extremely tight, and not a single team has yet guaranteed itself access to the upper bracket or said goodbye to its chances for the playoffs. This also applies to teams from the CIS – Team Spirit And BetBoom Team. Their fate in the tournament will also be determined by their last meeting. All schedules for our lineups are in the Cybersport.ru material.

BetBoom Team – even elimination replays are possible

BetBoom Team currently shares the leading position with Team Liquid, but this still does not guarantee anything for the team. Moreover, in the last round she will meet with Michal’s squad Nisha Jankowski.

If BetBoom Team beats Liquid

• All other outcomes are unimportant – BetBoom Team becomes the sole leader of the group and advances to the upper playoff bracket.

If BetBoom Team draws with Liquid

• Relegation is definitely not in danger.
• BetBoom Team will advance to the upper bracket provided that Talon Esports And Team Falcons play 1:1, and G2 Invictus Gaming doesn’t win Shopify Rebellion.
• If one of the requirements above is not met, then we will face replays for the upper bracket for three or four teams, respectively.

If BetBoom Team loses to Liquid

• Chances for the upper bracket through replays will remain. This requires Talon and Falcons to tie and G2 to lose to Shopify.
• If there is a winner in the Talon vs. Falcons match, then BetBoom Team will advance to the lower bracket.
• The team faces elimination from the tournament in the following case: The Talon vs. Falcons match ends 1-1, with G2 defeating Shopify. Then BetBoom Team, Talon and Falcons will take part in elimination replays (one of them will be eliminated, the other two will fall into the lower bracket).
• A combo option is possible with replays for four teams, where there will be a battle for both the upper bracket and relegation at the same time: a draw in the match between Talon and Falcons and a draw between G2 and Shopify – then the four teams will have five points each.
