After coming out of the Group Stage on a 2-1 record, Metizport Epicbet did not lose a single match en route to securing the spot in Warsaw. 2-0 victories versus Walczaki, Sashi and lastly 9INE has now added a very prestigious tournament to the team’s competitive schedule, starting in just two weeks in the Polish capital.
The tournament, with $100,000 in prize money and several high-level teams like Luminosity, 3DMAX, Ninjas in Pyjamas, Team Liquid, and EYEBALLERS, will offer a superb opportunity for the squad to test their level versus higher teams and continue improving as a group, and there will be a lot of points for the global ranking to be obtained.
Even now, the team has risen to 60th on the global ranking thanks to the chain of victories, sitting on nearly a 70% win rate in matches the past three months. Head Coach Vincent “vinS” Jozefiak was happy about the win, highlighting that while some matches were real nailbiters, it still did the job. “Qualifiers are designed to win, not to play beautiful cs. We didnt play perfectly, but we are getting there.“
With the qualification to the Warsaw LAN, Metizport Epicbet will be attending two offline tournaments this month on top of each other. Most likely, directly after Logitech G Connect 2026, they will continue the run in Prague at €11,000 Tipsport Open Cup #2, in which we will be seeded directly in the Playoffs.
