One tournament that all the greats have to win, it’s a special event that the competitive calendar wouldn’t feel complete without. 

IEM Cologne 2021 was the first LAN event after the COVID pandemic forced everyone online, and the return of offline and stage formats has helped make this year’s edition one of the most anticipated in some time. Ahead of the event kicking off, check out Gamelevate for everything you need to know about IEM Cologne 2022.

Intel Extreme Masters Season XVII – Cologne 2022 kicks off on July 5th 2022 with its opening round of play-in fixtures. 

IEM Cologne begins with sixteen teams based on world ranking and regional qualifiers competing in a double-elimination bracket for a ticket to the main tournament. The opening round of fixtures are all best-of-one, with all other matches slated as best-of-threes. The top eight teams left standing from the play-in will then be seeded into the main competition. 

From there, the main tournament begins with two groups of eight competing in a double-elimination bracket in a LAN studio environment. The eight teams that qualify from both groups will then take to the stage in the playoffs. 

The playoffs are a single-elimination bracket, concluding with the grand final on July 17th, which will be a best-of-five.
