The European qualifier for the World Championships has reached the playoffs, in which 16 national teams will fight for eight spots at the offline finals.

Following the end of the group stage, the top four national sides from each of the four groups have advanced to the single-elimination, best-of-three playoffs, which kick off later on Wednesday. 

Only one bracket round will be played, as the Round of 16 match winners will automatically progress to the World Championships, in Belgrade, where they will face off against the likes of China and the United States for the lion's share of a $100,000 prize pool.
