ECSTATIC received a direct invitation to the closed stage of ESL Challenger Katowice 2023, alongside GODSENT. This unexpected opportunity arose due to Monte and GamerLegion's extended journey at the Paris Major. ECSTATIC made the most of their chance, advancing through the upper bracket to reach the final.

In pursuit of their first-ever CSGO LAN trophy, ECSTATIC will go to ESL Challenger Katowice 2023 as the fifth-best-ranked team. The Danish side's most recent offline qualification was for ESL Challenger Melbourne, where they achieved a respectable 3-4th place finish, falling short to the eventual winners, Movistar Riders.
