IESF World Esports Championship 2024 Preview

The Esports scene continues in this final stretch of the 2024 season when the IESF World Esports Championship 2024 takes place.

This tournament can be called a kind of Esports World Cup, as the participating teams represent their respective countries after fighting tooth and nail in the regional qualifiers over the past few months.

The IESF World Esports Championship 2024 has an accumulated prize pool of $1,000,000, so we can see that it is a serious tournament and, for many, with a lot of excitement. Likewise, it is worth noting that it will take place from November 11 to 16 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

IESF World Esports Championship 2024 – Details

As we mentioned, from November 11-16, 2024, we will enjoy the IESF World Esports Championship 2024, an Esports tournament that includes some video games and all of them have the participation of national teams from different countries around the world.

The Esports that will be played in this tournament are:

According to the distribution of the accumulated prize pool and the participating players, we can say that the most important event will be the CS2 one. And the fact is that we will have the participation of some well-known professional players in the competitive scene, such as Nicolas “Plopski” Gonzalez and Casper “SHiNE” Wennerberg for Sweden, Adam “NEOFRAG” Zouhar for the Czech Republic and Sanzhar “neaLaN” Iskhakov for Kazakhstan.

Similarly, it’s notable the tournament’s prize pool has increased significantly thanks to the IESF’s partnership with the Saudi Esports Federation.

The total prize pool, as we mentioned, of $1,000,000 will be distributed among the top teams in each of the titles. In addition, in PUBG Mobile, each of the 16 participating teams will take a share of the accumulated prize pool. This undoubtedly shows us how committed the organizers are to increasing the popularity of mobile esports.

Players will try to leave their country’s flag flying high.

The players who will participate in this event in Saudi Arabia will not only give them all to win and get the prize money, but they will also fight tooth and nail to leave their country’s name at the top. Moreover, this is the only time of the year that we see national teams of countries facing each other in some of the most popular Esports, so the enjoyment will be total.

Speaking of similarities to traditional sports, this event could easily be an Esports Olympics or something like a Soccer World Cup. However, it should be noted that there are several Esports on the table, so the similarity with the Olympic Games might be much more convenient.

One way or another, we hope that this event of great magnitude will have the expected popularity so that in the not-too-distant future, we can see players of higher levels representing their respective countries. The fact is that this tournament, at least in its CS2 division, is held on the same days as the RMR for the Shanghai Major, so the top players could not participate in defending the flag of their countries.
