PaiN Gaming and Imperial Esports are the two teams that finished in first and second place, respectively, at the ESL Challenger Melbourne 2022, which took place this past weekend.

ForZe, Sprout, Eternal Fire, and Entropiq are the four European teams that have said ��yes�� to invitations to compete in the closed qualifier for their region. As a result of the fact that all four of them are now ranked within the top 30 on HLTV, the competition to secure the sole available seat in the ESL Challenger Rotterdam 2022 will be intense.

ATK and ex-Gaimin Gladiators have both been given invites to compete in the closed qualifier that will take place in North America. These two teams will fill the two available slots in their region. In the qualifier round, they will go up against Team oNe eSports, who have already advanced past the first open qualifier round, while the second open qualifier round has not yet been held.
