The matchups of the fourth round at the IEM Rio Major Legends Stage have been set following the conclusion of round three, which saw Cloud9 and FURIA advance to the Jeunesse Arena and FaZe and Ninjas in Pyjamas exit the competition after being stunned by underdog teams.
The most high-profile match of the day will be an end-of-day qualification bout between Liquid and Heroic, currently the #3 and #7 teams in the world.
The North American side will enter series play for the first time after previously sending Natus Vincere to the elimination matches, while Casper “cadiaN” Møller‘s men will have a second shot at securing a place in the playoffs after a disappointing first attempt against Cloud9.
Heroic will face Liquid in their second chance at qualification for playoffs
Before that, two more playoffs spots will be determined in matches between MOUZ and Outsiders as well as BIG and fnatic.
Meanwhile in the 1-2 pool, after sending FaZe home, Bad News Eagles will take on another massive favorite in Natus Vincere in the opening round. Vitality will then lock horns with ENCE, before the day concludes with a match for survival between Spirit and Sprout.
