IEM Dallas will be the first tier-one tournament in the US in 2025 as it is scheduled for May 19th-25th, two weeks before the BLAST.tv Austin Major kicks off.

The tournament will feature two home teams in the form of Liquid and NRG and other two individual NA representatives in the form of Mario "malbsMd" Samayoa (G2) and Jonathan "EliGE" Jablonowski (FaZe).

Last year's IEM Dallas was exciting for NA fans as they witnessed Jake "Stewie2K" Yip win the trophy as a stand-in for G2 in one of the best Cinderella runs CS2 esports ever delivered.

This is the finalized team list for IEM Dallas 2025:

G2
Vitality
FaZe
Eternal Fire
United States NRG (NA qualifier)
Brazil Legacy (SA qualifier)
Lynn Vision (Asia qualifier)
HEROIC (Europe qualifier)
