BetBoom Team and Aurora Gaming qualify for ESL One Birmingham 2026
The closed qualifiers for ESL One Birmingham 2026 in Western Europe have come to an end, with BetBoom Team and Aurora Gaming emerging as the winners and securing slots at the tournament.
In the upper bracket final, BB Team faced Inner Circle and proved stronger, defeating their opponent 2:0. After losing Inner Circle dropped to the lower bracket, earning another chance to qualify.
In the match for the second slot, their opponent was Aurora Gaming, who had replaced two players ahead of the qualifiers. The team managed to find synergy and won the series 2:0, advancing to the championship.
Earlier, the same team defeated Aurora in the upper bracket semifinal of these qualifiers, closing the series in two maps.
It is worth noting that Inner Circle are playing with a new player: a few days ago, the team parted ways with support Rodrigo Lelis Santos, and his place was taken by Mongolian player Tugstur Se Dashveg.
