ESL Unveils Bold Changes to 2024 Pro Tour Qualification Structure
ESL has recently disclosed the revised slot distribution and qualification procedures for the upcoming ESL Pro Tour events in 2024. This announcement follows the unveiling of next year's competitive calendar, featuring seven Masters and Championship events alongside four Challenger events.
In a strategic move, ESL has adjusted the slot distribution, notably impacting the North American representation in IEM Katowice and IEM Cologne. The World Ranking NA spots for both events have been reduced from two to one, and the Elisa Masters Espoo qualifier for Katowice has been removed.
To balance these alterations, ESL has introduced two additional Global ESL World Ranking invites for Katowice and an extra invite for Cologne. Moreover, ESL Meisterschaft will no longer grant direct entry to Cologne; instead, a German qualifier will take its place.
IEM China 2024, stepping in for IEM Sydney in the Pro Tour calendar, will now feature an offline qualifier instead of a local hero invite. Additionally, the European qualifier spots for this event have been reduced from two to one, with South America securing a new qualifier slot.
Here's a breakdown of the key changes in the 2024 ESL Pro Tour:
IEM Katowice 2024:
- Removed Affiliate Event slot (Elisa in 2023).
- Reduced ESL World Ranking NA slots from 2 to 1.
- Added 2 additional Global ESL World Ranking invites (8 instead of 6), compensating for the removal of the affiliate event and 1 NA ESL World Ranking slot.
