Just one week after PGL Major Antwerp came to a close, the international CS:GO calendar resumes with IEM Dallas. The week-long tournament will take place at the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center, with 16 teams vying for the lion’s share of a $250,000 prize pool.
Visa issues and the global health crisis have seen IEM Dallas lose some of its must-see appeal, with NAVI, Entropiq and Heroic all forced to withdraw from the event. Others, like NIP and ENCE, will have to field stand-ins.

It was FaZe’s title to lose — and Cloud9 really showed up to them. After winning the last three international events, including the Major, FaZe Clan couldn’t continue their rampage towards the Intel Grand Slam.
Below you can find everything that you need to know about IEM Dallas.
IEM Dallas will see the 16 participants split into two double-elimination groups. The opening round will be played in a best-of-one format before the tournament enters the best-of-three stages.
The group winners will directly advance to the semi-finals, while the runners-up and the third-placed sides will move on to the quarterfinals. The tournament will culminate in a best-of-five grand final on Sunday, June 5.
