Groups for ASUS ROG drawn

26-7-2014 01:24

The group draw for Assembly's $10,000 ASUS ROG tournament has taken place, with the 16 participants having been placed into four different groups.

From July 31st to August 2nd, the Helsinki Exhibition and Convention Center will stage the latest edition of Assembly, one of the most renowned LAN events in the Nordic region.

With $10,000 at stake in the ASUS ROG tournament, the event is garnering attention from the international community, and it is no surprise that a number of foreign teams will be in attendance.

Will OverDrive assemble a winning team again?

ENCORE, the team created by Joona "⁠natu⁠" Leppänen for this event, should face stiff competition for the $5,000 cheque from PENTA Sports, who were previously known as Berzerk, Publiclir.se, featuring players like Jacob "⁠pyth⁠" Mourujärvi and Erik "⁠zende⁠" Sundeqvist, and Norwegian side Expert-Gaming.

One surprising appearance in the participants' list is that of mix team Nostalgie. Aleksei "⁠OverDrive⁠" Birukov is so far the only player who appears on the team sheet, but the Russian veteran is expected to put together a team consisting of talented players from different countries, like he did for the Prague Challenge last year.

Grouo A	Group B
TOOMUCHVIDEOGAMES	ajuri
Menace	ENCORE
Publiclir.se	naMNam
Joutsenlaulu	myRevenge

Group C	Group D
Expert-Gaming	PENTA Sports
RCTIC eSports	Nostalgie
Games4u.se	MARVEL
Paranoia eSports	Recursive eSports

Stay tuned to HLTV.org for all the latest info about Assembly's ROG tournament.

Good

...so if Dosia & seized end up on the team making it a 3-RU-men roster with a couple of other dudes, then their chances of winning would be smaller??? Nice logic having no logic and knowledge of the good players.... ;))

Assuming you know the Russian scene, no one except OverDrive has the money to travel where he wants, small chances to see +latro and MAYBE +kibaken.

I can't remember to have seen StiGwOw before. Did he change his nickname or is it a newcomer? :P (Didn't follow the CSS scene so much, but he isn't from there?) Edit: GALLAXY, kom på det nå.

2014-07-26 16:02

How difficult is for HLTV.org guys to paste the damn lineups like this? Last time I asked this I got a "it will mess up the layout" answer and couldn't believe what I was reading.

2014-07-26 23:11

Yeah, i wonder why they don't include the line-ups.. Especially for tournaments like these where there are local teams.

2014-07-26 23:14
