IEM Dallas 2024 Grand Finale was an historic day as we saw Stewie2k coming back to Counter-Strike after five years and winning an event with G2 in front of his home crowd. For Niko, it was the first trophy win of the year 2024 and G2 also took their revenge against Vitality who beat them by 2-0 earlier in the tournament.
