Top teams to watch out for

Entity Gaming is one of the favorites in this India League. The Saumaj-led lineup has won two notable tournaments this month, including the ESL Pro Series and the iQOO Pro Series 2024. Team Soul was the first runner-up in those two contests. However, the coach, Mayavi, revealed that Nakul will not take part in the upcoming event due to his board exams.

GodLike Esports has added Apollo to its squad ahead of the BGMI India League 2024. The main focus will now be to get a respectable spot in the competition, as the club has struggled to regain dominance in this scene for over a year.

Team XSpark has signed Shadow as their new captain, and they are hoping for a much-anticipated trophy in the BGMI India League. Gods Reign had a bad outing in the ESL Pro Series and will be looking to bounce back in this tournament.
