We were allowed to enter the IEM Katowice tournament area after all to take footage during matches on day one. Thanks to that we were able to capture Luminosity's winning moment after their comeback versus mousesports, which secured them a place in the playoffs.

After ESL have reached out to us to figure out a compromise out of the situation, we were allowed to get into the tournament area to provide you with full coverage, including galleries and videos.

We would like to express our gratitude to ESL for reaching out to us to meet us half-way and being able to resolve the mix-up, and letting us in despite not allowing press into the venue at all, initially.

Luminosity were able to complete a crazy comeback from a 8-14 deficit in their match with MOUZ, a big part of which was Gabriel "⁠FalleN⁠" Toledo's 1-on-2 clutch at the very end of the game.

It also meant that Luminosity reached playoffs, as they grabbed their fourth win in group A. That deserved an explosive reaction from the Brazilians, which you can see below:

All photos from day one are being uploaded at the time of writing this article. We will let you know when they're up with a photo post soon.
