ODDIK qualified for ESL Challenger Atlanta 2024.

ODDIK made it to ESL Challenger Atlanta 2024, through the South American qualification and became the 5th team at the tournament. The tournament will be held in the city of Atlanta, October 4-6, where the main prize is a spot at ESL Pro League Season 20.

Background and top score

For ODDIK, this marks the best achievement in the organization's history, and ESL Challenger Atlanta will be their first dash-2 LAN tournament. In addition to them, M80, FlyQuest, BetBoom Team and BIG, who received a direct invitation to the tournament, will participate in the tournament.

Another 3 teams will be revealed through the European, North American and Ocean qualification. In addition to the coveted spot at the ESL Pro League for everyone, the winner will also receive $50,000.

Qualification details

There were 4 teams in qualification, where RED Canids and ODDIK received an invite, while Vikings KR and BESTIA went through open qualification. The tournament was played on a double knockout grid where ODDIK played BESTIA in the first round and beat them 2-0, giving them only 7 rounds for two cards.

In the finals of the top set they faced RED Canids, played by HEN1 and coldzera, but it didn't help them and ODDIK won 2-1 in a tight battle, thus qualifying for the finals. In the final they faced the same HEN1 and coldzera, where this time they defeated them 2-0.

Despite the defeat in the final, the best player of the tournament was Henrique "HEN1" Teles, who finished 9 maps with an average rating of 6.8, which is quite a good result.

Also interesting fact that in the top 5 best players there is no player from ODDIK, which is surprising. The best player of ODDISK, Italo "ksloks" Meinberg, finished the tournament in 6th place among all players of the tournament with a rating of 6.3.

Upcoming tournaments

After qualification, their next tournaments are ESL Challenger League Season 48 South America and another LAN tournament Circuito Estadual FERJEE 2024 Finals in Rio de Janeiro. The tournament has a prize pool of $43,200 and they are the tournament favorites.

The team is also ranked 12th in Valve's regional rankings and will most likely receive invitations to the RMR Closed Qualifiers. Where, if they perform well, they will qualify for the RMR itself.
