Worlds 2025 has arguably one of the star-studded play-ins fans have seen in a while. Faker’s T1 faces the veteran squad of IG in a do-or-die matchup to secure their place at the tournament or face a premature end to their campaign. 

Play-ins Knockouts

Swiss Stage

Once we have the final team from the Play-in Knockouts, they will come to the Beijing Smart Esports Center, which is hosting the World Championship for the first time. The Swiss Stage includes 16 teams. While winning will improve teams’ knockout chances, losing will make it tougher with each match. These matches are best of one until the teams play a decider for qualification or elimination, which will be best of three.

After every round, a draw will take place to determine each team’s next opponent, keeping things interesting for fans and players alike.
