MIBR will not play in the playoffs of ESL Challenger League Season 41: North America

The Brazilian team MIBR will not take part in the playoffs of the ESL Challenger League Season 41: North America. As a result, the place of the team in the quarterfinals will be taken by Mythic, which came fifth in Group B at the end of the group stage of the championship. It is reported that MIBR has decided to withdraw from the championship due to logistical problems, as it will be forced to compete in the championship in Europe.

The Brazilian team successfully performed at the group stage of the championship, where they won five victories and suffered only two defeats. However, MIBR will not be able to return to North America at the scheduled time, as the team will have to play at the ESL Pro League Conference Season 16, which will be held from June 16 to 20 in Sweden.

In addition, at the beginning of next month, the team will travel to Spain to take part in the ESL Challenger at DreamHack Valencia 2022, where they received a direct invitation from the championship organizers.

As a result, the Brazilian team will be replaced by Mythic, which finished fifth in Group B.

The playoffs of ESL Challenger League Season 41: North America will start on June 23rd and will last until June 26th. Despite the format of the championship, participants need to be in North America, since that is where the servers are located.

ESL Challenger League Season 41: North America runs from April 26 to June 26 online. Sixteen teams from North and South America are fighting for a prize pool of $50,000, as well as a ticket to the ESL Pro League Conference Season 17, which will go to the winner.
