Old Guys Club and Test Takers are the last two teams confirmed in the Americas Minor closed qualifier after placing top two in the fourth open qualifier.

The final open qualifier saw 99 participants battle their way through the single-elimination bracket, where four teams met in the best-of-three deciders for a chance to join likes of NRG, Ghost and eUnited.

Old Guys Club were the first to make it through with Sean "⁠seang@res⁠" Gares leading his squad of retired legendary pros, easing past Hysteria 16-5 before defeating LiViD in two maps, with Jordan "⁠n0thing⁠" Gilbert posting a 1.44 rating in the series.

The 16 team closed qualifier is set to kick off December 12-14, where six spots at the Americas Minor in Katowice, Poland will be up for grabs.
