Paris Major Legends Stage round 4 matchups determined

ENCE will take on Ninjas in Pyjamas for their tournament lives on Monday.

The fourth round of matchups at the BLAST.tv Paris Major Legends Stage has been set following the conclusion of round three of the Swiss format, where we saw Vitality and HEROIC book their playoff spots, while 9INE and FURIA exited the tournament with 0-3 records. Monday's games will all happen in a best-of-three format, with every match being played for progression to the playoffs or elimination from the Major.

The action will start with ENCE vs. Ninjas in Pyjamas and FaZe vs. Bad News Eagles in two elimination games at 11:30 , with the latter matchup having quite a bit of history. Bad News Eagles have eliminated the European combine from the IEM Rio Major and beat them at the Paris RMR, where FaZe eventually had to fight through the last chance qualifier.

FaZe will once again meet BNE

fnatic vs. G2 rounds out the elimination games, where the Rasmus "⁠HooXi⁠" Nielsen-led team will hope to continue their resurgence against an out-of-form fnatic.

Monte will meet Natus Vincere in the first qualification match. The clash is a Ukrainian derby as well as a battle between Oleksandr "⁠s1mple⁠" Kostyliev and Volodymyr "⁠Woro2k⁠" Veletniuk, who have been embroiled in some Twitter arguments in recent times.

Rounding out the day will be Liquid's clash with Into the Breach in what should be a good chance for the North Americans to secure a playoff spot after a rough start to the Major, alongside another 2-1 bout between Apeks and GamerLegion.
