Team Spirit has regained its early 2024 form at IEM Dallas 2024. The team has had a couple of underwhelming results recently, with the PGL Major and BetBoom Dacha being notable instances. However, Spirit has been playing excellently at Dallas so far. The most important takeaway from its group stage run is superstar rifler donk not needing to carry all the time.

magixx and sh1ro are the top two players in this event in terms of rating. The Russian side looks like a well-oiled machine now and even the formidable FaZe Clan proved no match for the current 6th-ranked team in the world. It will be interesting to see whether Spirit can win another IEM event in 2024.

Team Vitality, on the other hand, came into this tournament after a 0-3 loss against MOUZ in the ESL Pro League Season 19 grand finals. As expected with Vitality, it has primarily relied on ZywOo and Spinx to have a big impact in its important matchups and this duo has delivered pretty well.

However, the rest of the team has been quite inconsistent and must step it up against a terrifying roster like Spirit where each player can take over the server. Vitality is one of the strongest teams in the pro scene right now and an exciting series is all but guaranteed.
