Endpoint are out of contention for playoffs, as they will not be able to earn enough points to qualify for the Major due to their 20% points reduction for using a stand-in, having required at least a top-eight finish to have a chance.

Konami’s eFootball 2022 was released on Sept. 30, but its launch wasn’t exactly the best. The free-to-play successor to Pro Evolution Soccer received its preliminary version on Steam.

In fact, many problems are affecting eFootball and Konami officially apologized earlier today. Konami acknowledged the problems pointed out by players. “We have received

NAVI defeat Vitality to secure IEM Cologne playoff spot; BIG see off Liquid

Natus Vincere have assured themselves of a playoff spot at IEM Cologne after defeating Vitality in three maps in Group B's upper bracket semi-finals.

This was yet another chapter in the continued battle between Aleksandr "⁠s1mple⁠" Kostyliev vs. Mathieu "⁠ZywOo⁠" Herbaut, but Saturday's result was a product of NAVI's collective performance, rather than individual brilliance from their Ukrainian star, who at times
