The initial matches and the schedule of the CIS Minor Closed Qualifier, which will run on June 8-10, have been revealed by StarLadder.

Just like the South America Closed Qualifier, which will soon be concluded, the CIS Minor Closed Qualifier will use a double-elimination BO3 format to decide the teams that will travel to Berlin and compete for a spot at the Major.

The CIS Minor Closed Qualifier will run on June 8-10, with eight of the 16 teams securing a spot at the CIS Minor in Berlin. The following teams are in competition:

The first four teams will earn their spot through the upper bracket after winning two BO3s, while the rest will battle for theirs through the lower bracket.
