Because Team Secret can no longer leapfrog it in EUL Stage 3 standings, Natus Vincere has qualified for the Six Invitational 2022.
NAVI notched a first-place finish in EUL Stage 1 due to a tiebreaking victory over BDS Esport. 510 SI Points were distributed, as the May Major that NAVI would've qualified for was cancelled to make way for the postponed Six Invitational 2021.
NAVI was not qualified for SI 2021, and was forced to wait to play in further top-flight competitions until EUL Stage 2 began.
NAVI placed third in Stage 2 of the EUL, and qualified for the Mexico Major. They were eliminated from the Major in the group stage, but still tallied 105 SI Points for attending and 225 points for their performance in the regional league.
Because NAVI are guaranteed to finish EUL Stage 3 higher than Team Secret and Heroic, they're locked into SI 2022.
They join Team Liquid, Team oNe, and BDS. There are still 16 spots up for grabs in the tournament. Four will come from qualifier tournaments, with 12 to be pulled from the SI Points standings.
