I'll be watching highlights from the tournament, but I don't plan to follow the matches closely. I'll name Xtreme Gaming and Team Liquid as favorites.

Watson commented on the forced substitution at Team Falcons in Birmingham:
I think [replacing Malr1ne with SumaiL at ESL One Birmingham 2024] will affect Team Falcons. Malr1ne moves around the map nicely, he has a lot of nasty heroes, and he can flex them with ATF. I don't think SumaiL plays like a "nerd" on Razor or Timbersaw. Oh, and I haven't seen SumaiL in a long time, either in matchmaking or in official matches. I don't know how he's playing now.

Earlier, Nigma Galaxy reported on their social media accounts about the replacements in Team Falcons at ESL One Birmingham. It is reported that SumaiL will play for the Falcons instead of Malr1ne.
