The majority-German side are joined by Extra Salt on the team list for the event after they were awarded a forfeit win in the North American grand final of ESEA Premier.

Sprout qualified for ESL Pro League Season 16 Conference after winning ESEA Premier Season 39 Europe on Sunday, securing a one-sided victory over Entropiq in the league's best-of-five grand final to take home $20,000 and earn a shot at qualifying for Pro League via the Conference stage.

In North America, Extra Salt qualified for the Conference after they were awarded a forfeit win in the grand final. ChocoCheck were unable to field a complete lineup for the match, leaving us with an anticlimactic end to Josh "⁠oSee⁠" Ohm's time on the team before he reportedly departs for Liquid in 2022.

Spiidi topped the board in Sprout's Ancient win

Sprout began their playoff campaign with a win over Finest in the upper bracket quarter-final before going on to beat BLINK and GamerLegion en route to the grand final. Entropiq, meanwhile, recovered from an opening round loss to BLINK and survived a lower bracket gauntlet, beating Finest, 1WIN, BLINK in a rematch, and GamerLegion in the consolidation final.

The heroic run proved to not be enough in the end though as Sprout made full use of their one-map default advantage due to coming from the upper bracket to sweep the series 3-0, kicking things off with a dominant performance on Ancient. Timo "⁠Spiidi⁠" Richter and Josef "⁠faveN⁠" Baumann took the reins in a dominant CT side effort, leading 11-4, before closing out the map shortly into the second half for a 16-7 map win.

Entropiq put up a much better display on Vertigo, making up for a slow start (2-5) as they set the pace in the latter portion of the first half to head into the side swap ahead 9-6. Despite a pistol win for the Russian side, the tides of the match turned in Sprout's favor in the second half as they secured a force-buy to gain control, converting seven of the next eight rounds.

A last-ditch effort from Entropiq allowed them to tie up the score at 14-14, but it was Sprout who emerged the victors of the close battle at the end of the map to edge out a victory and sweep the series.
