IEM Cologne stands as one of the most anticipated tournaments in the Counter-Strike calendar, where the best teams compete for one of the most prestigious trophies in the scene. This year promises to be no exception, with the top 15-ranked teams battling for the title in Germany.

Teams and Competition Format

IEM Cologne 2024 will feature a robust competition structure across three stages: the Play-in, Group Stage, and Playoffs.
