Following Team Liquid's announcement that they will not be attending IEM Beijing, ESL has replaced them with ENCE. Liquid decided to cancel due to a packed schedule.

They still have plenty planned ahead though, with ESL Pro League Season 10 Finals, the BLAST Pro Series Global Finals, BLAST Pro Series Copenhagen and the ECS Season 8 Finals.

ENCE takes their place and are also slated to compete at the CS:GO Asia Championship which takes place in Shanghai 10 days after IEM Beijing. The Finnish team was also present at BLAST Pro Series Moscow, ESL One New York, and DreamHack Masters Malmö. 

The IEM Beijing team roster now looks like this:

• Astralis

• FaZe

• Vici Gaming 

• Evil Geniuses

• Team Vitality

• ENCE

• TYLOO

All eight teams will fight for their share of the $250,000 prize pool. IEM Beijing will take place from November 7-10 at the Beijing University Students' Stadium.
