Final list of IEM Atlanta participants confirmed
The list of IEM Atlanta participants has been finalized: the last slot in the North American closed qualifier was claimed by Passion UA led by Johnny "JT" Theodosiou, defeating mouse, SportsBetExpert and Wildcard twice along the way.
Earlier, the Russian teams BetBoom and BET-M made it through the global qualifier: they eliminated SINNERS and fnatic in the semifinals, and then BET-M stopped SINNERS again in the elimination match and became the main surprise of the qualifier.
Despite overlapping with PGL Astana and not having the most star-studded status, IEM Atlanta (11–17 May, Georgia World Congress Center, prize pool $1,000,000) will feature Vitality, FaZe, Natus Vincere, Astralis, FUT, Liquid, B8, paiN, NRG, GamerLegion, M80, Legacy, BC.Game, BetBoom, BET-M and Passion UA.
