Orgless and Yeah have earned the last two slots in the North American closed qualifier for the Americas Minor after topping the final open bracket.

Pujan "⁠FNS⁠" Mehta's Orgless squad prevailed in their fourth attempt to qualify, fighting their way past New England Whalers and Faint to set up a clash against Big Frames for a spot in the closed stage. There, the trio of Yassine "⁠Subroza⁠" Taoufik, Jaccob "⁠yay⁠" Whiteaker, and Gage "⁠Infinite⁠" Green combined to help their side to wins on Nuke and Inferno to take the series 2-0.

Orgless secured qualification in their fourth open qualifier attempt

Meanwhile, the Brazilian side of Yeah attained permission to compete in the final qualifier after they were ruled out of the third open bracket because they had not requested to play in the region in advance.

Yeah opened the series with a 16-13 win on Inferno, but found themselves on the losing side of a thirty-round affair on their own pick of Train before they were able to take the decider, Dust2, 16-5.
