After being defeated by Tidebound in the first round, Betboom returned strongly with two overwhelming victories against Navi Jr and Edge, then defeated Aurora after three games to win the right to playoff.
The remaining two teams of Eastern Europe, Aurora and Navi Jr, had to play all five rounds to get the chance of the tournament.
Aurora started strongly with two 2-1 victories over Navi Jr and Tundra before losing to rivals in the same region, Spirit and Betboom in the third and fourth rounds. But after overcome the difficult series in the first four rounds, Aurora met the opponent easier to breathe rather than Heroic from South America in the year and quickly won to enter the Playoff.
Meanwhile, Navi Jr had a spectacular comeback after a pathetic start to participate in eight teams to continue. This team lost the first two matches against Aurora and Betboom and faced the risk of being eliminated early. However, Navi Jr promptly regained his form and won three consecutive overwhelming victories against Talon, Nigma Galaxy, and Falcons.

Tundra wiped out heroic in the first round, lost to Aurora after three games in the second round, won 2-1 against Shopify Rebellion in the fourth round, then beat Falcons with a score of 2-1 in the fourth round.
Finally, Tidebound is the only team not in Western Europe or Eastern Europe in the PGL Wallachia Season 4 playoff round. The Chinese representative's group stage journey is an emotional coaster when they surprised by the victory over Betboom in the first round, wiped by Spirit in the second round, then won against Nigma Galaxy in the third round, then received defeat against Spirit in the fourth round. Tidebound then faced Xtreme's compatriot team in the year and proved that they were a better Chinese team with a 2-0 victory to win the playoff.
