The teams filling the ESL World Ranking slots at the IEM Katowice 2021 Play-In have been invited after the German tournament organizer updated its world ranking upon the IEM Global Challenge's completion.

BIG, MOUZ, Virtus.pro, Gambit, Cloud9 and Spirit are the last batch of invited teams to the IEM Katowice Play-In, having earned their spot thanks to their final standings in the ESL World Ranking. They join the teams that made their way through the ESL Pro Tour and its feeder tournaments, namely Complexity, fnatic, OG, Liquid, Chaos, TYLOO, BOOM and Renegades, as well as the ESL Mistrzostwa Polski champions, Illuminar.

The last spot will go to the ESL European Championship winners, an eight team tournament on January 18-19 featuring ESL's national league champions: Endpoint, LDLC, Movistar Riders, Maestro, Sangal, Elites, KINGZZZ and the Meisterschaft champions, who will be known in January.

The Play-In, which is scheduled for February 16-17, is part of IEM Katowice 2021, the $1 million tournament that ESL recently announced would be hosted in Europe and is planned as an in-person event as long as there is no "major barrier to the safety of our talent, players and staff," albeit with no audience.

The top eight play-in finishers will then be drawn immediately into the tournament's group stage on February 18-21, where Astralis, Vitality, Natus Vincere, HEROIC, FURIA, G2, FaZe and Evil Geniuses are waiting.

The play-in stage teams are:
