The third day of competition at the EMEA Masters saw action from Groups A, B, E, and H, and already delivered the first four playoff qualifiers: Karmine Corp Blue, BoostGate Esports, BK ROG Esports, and GIANTX Pride. On the other end, four teams were eliminated from the tournament—Colossal Gaming, Crvena zvezda Esports, For The Win Esports, and NightBirds. The LFL secures both of its top seeds for the playoffs, while SuperLiga sends its second seed and the TCL locks in its first.

On Thursday, KCB (#2 LFL) made quick work of Fog Esports (#2 Arabian League), while BK ROG (#1 LFL) had a tougher time against Berlin International Gaming (#2 PRM) but ultimately closed out the series 2-1. GX Pride (#2 SuperLiga) cruised past Partizan Sangal (#2 EBL) in under an hour of total game time, and Gamespace Mediterranean College Esports (#2 HLL) eliminated Crvena zvezda (#1 EBL) in a bloody 2-0 series featuring over 80 kills.

Gentle Mates (#3 LFL) fell to BoostGate (#1 TCL) in a long best-of-three that went the distance, while ULF Esports (#3 TCL) won the do-or-die match against Colossal (#1 LIT). Los Heretics (#3 SuperLiga) bounced back from their Day 1 loss to eliminate FTW (#2 LPLOL), and StormMedia FMS (#2 RL) knocked out Nightbirds (#1 HM) after a full three-game series.
