The Mongolian squad is set to make their third consecutive Major appearance in Paris after representing IHC at PGL Major Antwerp and IEM Rio Major in 2022.
Just before the current Major cycle, Garidmagnai “bLitz” Byambasuren’s team decided to leave their former organization and adopt the renowned TheMongolz moniker.
With a new name and the recent swap of Tengis “sk0R” Batjargal for Chinguun “hasteka” Bayarmaa, TheMongolz entered the qualifier amid uncertainty about their form. However, they triumphed after four days of play, defeating Twisted Minds and Rare Atom twice to secure their spot at the Paris Major, with their only loss coming against Grayhound. Hasteka recorded an average 0.95 rating during the tournament.
