Cloud9 have secured a spot in the IEM Katowice<\/a> group stage after a hard-fought 2-1 victory over ENCE in the play-in phase on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

The game was a much-anticipated rematch of the IEM Dallas 2022 Grand Final, which was won by Cloud9 in a nail-biting contest. This time, both teams came to the stage with altered rosters. <\/p>\n

ENCE fielded Olek “hades” Miskiewicz and Alvaro “SunPayus” Garcia on the AWP, with Janusz “Snax” Pogorzelski filling in for the missing Lotan “Spinx” Giladi. Cloud9 entered the game with a refreshed lineup featuring Timur “buster” Tulepov in his first official match with the team.<\/p>\n
