Only eight CS:GO teams attending the IEM Rio Major will advance to the Champions Stage, the name of the playoffs of the $1.25 million tournament held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
The playoff action will begin on Nov. 10, one day after the conclusion of the Legends Stage, with two quarterfinals matches. The action in the Legends Stage and Challengers Stage took place at the Riocentro venue, and the tournament will move to a bigger venue in form of the Jeunesse Arena once the single-elimination playoff bracket begins.
In order to qualify for the playoffs, every team needs to win three matches in the Legends Stage and all the advancement matches are best-of-three series. Losing three games, on the other hand, is what eliminates teams from the tournament.
