IHC defend Major slot at Asia RMR; Rare Atom eliminated

Grayhound and JiJieHao International will play for the second Asian slot in Rio on Sunday.

IHC have secured the first of two IEM Rio Major Challengers Stage spots on offer in the IEM Road to Rio Asia RMR after beating JiJieHao International in the first round and Grayhound 2-0 in the upper final.

The Mongolian squad will make their second Challengers Stage appearance in a row after having won the Asian RMR ahead of PGL Major Antwerp.

IHC won the Asia RMR for the second consecutive time

Chinese side Rare Atom have bowed out of the competition in last place following a 1-2 loss to JiJieHao International in the lower bracket final. Their exit from the tournament leaves China with no representatives at the Major for the second consecutive time, after TYLOO were unable to qualify for the Antwerp event earlier this year.

One more spot in Rio is left to be determined with Grayhound and JiJieHao International set to face in an all-or-nothing match taking place on Sunday at 05:00 .
