apEX is the first player on our list of players to watch out for here at IEM Chicago 2019. He has improved quite a lot this year and showed glimpses of what made him known as one of the best entry fraggers in CS:GO. So watch out for him!

nitr0 might be the guy calling the strategies on his team, but that doesn’t stop him from fragging and dominating his opponents with his individual skills. He is a big factor in his team’s success, and we expect him to have some great performances at this tournament.

ENCE has shown they belong at the top, which is why our last 2 players selected are allu and Aerial. Both of these guys can shut down their opposition when they gain momentum. We expect them to be full of confidence and defeat their opponents here at IEM Chicago 2019.

Last we have a longshot with kennyS, which could be a rising star!
