ByLAN 2013 with €5,300 for CS:GO

4-9-2013 15:29

The ByLAN organisers have announced all the info regarding the Norwegian qualifier for the ESWC finals.

One of the highlights of the autumn season will be ByLAN, perhaps the most famous event in Norway, and this year there is one extra reason for every esports enthusiast not to miss it: this is where the Norwegian ESWC qualifier will take place.

The CS:GO tournament will feature just four teams: the winners of the two online pre-qualifiers that will each feature 64 teams, and the top two sides from the BYOC tournament at ByLAN, which is open to 32 sides.

The Norwegian ESWC qualifier will take place between October 5th to 6th, and besides the spot at the world finals in France, there is also a hefty prize purse, as you can see below:

ByLAN 2013 prize distribution:

1. €3,120 + ESWC spot
2. €1,560
3. €625

To find out all the info about ByLAN, which will take place in Bergen from October 4th to 7th, head over to the event's official website.

Would be nice to see non-Norwegian team taking first place D:

impossible

the team that gets the norwegian spot needs to have at least 3 norwegians in it. They could win the money though, sure.

Totally misleading writing "1st place 3,120 euro + ESWC spot" considering they're separate tournaments. Sure it will be possible to win both, but you can win the biggest cash prize and place 4th in the ESWC-qualifier.

No. It is one single tournament.

2013-09-04 18:03

how do you suppose that works with 2 online qualifers and top2 from LAN qualiafies aswell?

2013-09-04 18:13

The LAN qualifiers (BYOC) dont have any prize itself, top2 from that qualifier will get a spot in the finals (together with the two teams that qualify online).

2013-09-04 21:21

because "best team Norway" atm isnt a big deal. They don't do much, any of them. If they participate in international scene, they lose :/

2013-09-05 01:15

its a joke, they arent the best team in norway at all

"perhaps the most famous event in Norway" I guess he is implying most famous CSGO event... It's not like Norway has the biggest LAN event (under 1 roof) in the world

2013-09-05 00:59

TG is renowned for being absolute dogshit for eSports though. Not a single serious gamer gives a rats ass about it. Bylan is the biggest gaming-lan in norway.
