IHC qualified after a 2-0 win against the Australians from Grayhound.

The match ended in overtime on Mirage, where IHC managed to win 19-16. Tengis ‘sk0R’ Batjargal and Garidmagnai ‘bLitz’ Byambasuren played a big part in the victory for the Mongolian roster, who were also one of Asia’s qualifiers for the PGL Major in Antwerp earlier this year.
