Chronology
ESL One Birmingham 2024 was a tournament held in Birmingham, United Kingdom in April 2024. It marked the return of ESL One to Birmingham, who last hosted the event in 2019. The tournament began competitively, with no clear favourite. Team Falcons, however, gained momentum the quickest, and they beat BetBoom Team 3-0 in an ill-tempered Grand Final.
The qualification process of ESL One Birmingham 2024 saw difficulties. Several players from Russia and Belarus were unable to obtain visas to enter the United Kingdom. The team most affected by this was 1win. Despite deadline extensions, ESL eventually removed them from the event, and sought a replacement, eventually settling on OG. This choice was controversial, as this deprived Eastern Europe of a team, but also allowed OG an opportunity to qualify for Riyadh Masters 2024.
The event proved to be highly-successful for ESL. Esports Charts reported that the event broke several viewership records for any ESL One event, and reached mainstream coverage from the BBC and Sky News.
There is just not one weak point in this team. Every single one of them — skiter, Malr1ne, Ammar, Cr1t-, Sneyking — just on top of the world. And we've seen them do it in previous tournaments, coming in and giving a 3-0 smackdown, and doing it here, in front of this fantastic crowd live in Birmingham — this has got to feel fantastic for them.
