Last season we had PGS and H2k (now Gravitas) in th Grand Final at CeBIT. ESL announced earlier this year that they would once again be hosting the Extreme Masters.

Dreamhack will also feature some group stage matches, which ones will be announced later. You can already now drop by our coverage section, which as always will stay you updated with the latest scores, demos and results.

Group A: wow... some pretty nice teams at group A It should go to PGS and fnatic way (We will see in what form will PGS be) And watch out for Virtus.pro and the frenchies... Group B: Interesting... but i think NoA and mouz should take this. Don't be surprised if MYM progreses. Group C: This is in my opinion the most un-even group SK and roccat should win this easily... Group D: I haven't watch emL for quite some time now, but if they play as good as they play ed in previous lans they will advance as the no.1 team. The fight for 2 place will go tu CMAX.gg and aTTaX gl hf.
