Which teams can get the remaining 2 invites for Riyadh Masters 2025?

Tournament operator ESL has updated the ESL Pro Tour leaderboard after the end of ESL One Raleigh 2025. The position of the teams in the top ten has not changed, but the results of the upcoming DreamLeague Season 26 may significantly affect the position of the teams.

PARIVISION, Team Spirit, Team Falcons, BetBoom Team, Tundra Esports and Team Liquid have already guaranteed themselves a slot at the Riyadh Masters 2025. Now the main contenders for the remaining 2 invites are Virtus.pro, which got 2450 EPT points by signing four Chimera Esports players, and AVULUS, which has 2393 points. However, VP, unlike AVULUS, will not play at DreamLeague and will only get an invite if the teams below it on the EPT leaderboard do not overtake it in points.

In addition to Virtus.pro and AVULUS, there are 10 other teams competing for the EWC invite: Nigma Galaxy, Shopify Rebellion, Talon Esports, BOOM Esports, Perrito Panzon, Aurora Gaming, Mosquito Clan, Team Tidebound, Xtreme Gaming and Yakult Brothers.

Riyadh Masters 2025 will take place from 07.07.2025 to 20.07.2025. 16 teams will raffle off a prize pool of $3,000,000. As a reminder, Gaimin Gladiators received a direct invitation to the tournament as the reigning champion.

As CyberScore reported earlier, the winner of the Chinese LAN tournament will receive an invite to the EWC.
