IEM Katowice betting 2024

The Intel Extreme Masters is one of a few tournaments that has run for over a decade now on the esports professional scene, with their first collaboration with ESL coming in 2006 when they organised an IEM for Counter-Strike 1.6 and Warcraft III.

However, it wasn’t until Valve released Counter-Strike Global Offensive (CS:GO) where IEM really took off. In 2014 (Season 8), IEM held its first-ever IEM Katowice at the Spodek Arena, where Virtus.Pro won the inaugural event over Ninjas in Pyjamas.

Throughout its history, IEM Katowice has been an official CS:GO Major twice, in 2014 and 2019. Even though IEM Katowice isn’t an official CS:GO Major every year, it is still considered one of the most prestigious events on the Counter-Strike calendar.

Below you will find tournament details, team details, event history and past winners and odds from the best esports betting sites.
