ESEC 2014 groups drawn
The group draw for Electronic Sports European Championship 2014 has just finished with national representants learning their fate.
Twenty-four national teams have learned their fate after a total of thirty-two nations fought their way through qualifiers to be able to play in the main tournament. As Spain was unable to schedule their match with Macedonia in the second qualifying round, Macedonia got the spot by default.
The system remains the same as last year, which means that four from the best-of-one group stage advance to the best-of-three playoffs.
Last year only the grand final was played on LAN, this time the organizers decided to include the semi-finals as well, which means we will see four teams - with paid expenses like last year - in Belgrade, belExpo center.
Groups were drawn as follows:
| Group A |
