ESL Impact League Season 4 Reveals Dates and Qualifiers

ESL has recently shared new information about the upcoming edition of their women's Counter-Strike league, ESL Impact League Season 4. The tournament will kick off with an online phase scheduled from September 13 to October 29, followed by LAN finals at DreamHack Valencia starting on December 8.

A total of 28 teams from different regions will compete for a chance to claim the last ESL Impact trophy of the year and a share of the $150,000 prize pool. Nigma Galaxy emerged victorious in the previous tournament held in Valencia back in July 2022, securing their second LAN title of the year by defeating FURIA fe.

ESL has announced two sets of qualifiers, which will take place from August 18-20 and 25-27. Further details about the regional qualifier structure and the number of teams directly invited to the league are yet to be revealed.

In the previous season, the top three teams from Europe and two teams each from North and South America secured their spots in the offline phase. An additional qualifier determined the eighth team to join the competition at the Dallas event.

Nigma Galaxy, the dominant force in the ESL Impact circuit, have maintained an unbeaten streak, winning the most recent trophy at DreamHack Dallas against NAVI Javelins. Led by Ana "ANa" Dumbravă, the team has claimed five consecutive titles and aims to extend their impressive record in Valencia.
