Natus Vincere have been invited to attend the ESWC finals next month, HLTV.org has learned.

Earlier on Sunday, the ESWC revealed that a slot in the CS:GO tournament had been reserved for Ukraine, and with the list of invitations having already been announced, many thought that it meant a Ukrainian qualifier was in the making.

However, HLTV.org has now learned that the Ukrainian spot will directly go to Natus Vincere, while the qualifier held by StarSeries will be reserved for Ukrainian and Russian teams only.

lol, on paper, but the tournament is held in PGW if I'm not mistaken, which is a gaming "festival". Bunch of casuals running around for free stuff, with lots of music around, I pity the players.

2014-09-22 00:46

It will be different this year

2014-09-22 11:16

@HLTV.org, pls make the name of the teams invited that appear in the list bold so it's easier to distinguish them from the list of qualifiers :)

They will probably say that they had a team in ESWC and that they won over america 16-0

2014-09-22 01:50

over Russia* :D

2014-09-22 06:46

Oh I was referencing the north Korea world cup video they showed to their citizens. It showed them beating US by a lot and winning the world cup. Its on YouTube. Also what if north Korea turned out to be a big reality show the entire time and no one realized it?

2014-09-22 06:53

How about inviting a south korean team... Korea usually refers to south rather then north korea

2014-09-22 12:09

I wonder when that show is coming out. Would totally watch.

2014-09-22 12:40

omg wtf any source???

2014-09-22 01:13

good, they are easily the best team from Ukraine, no point for useless matches

2014-09-22 01:25

They are good. But it feels like they're very inconsistent. I like consistent teams. I mean. Get Hellraisers on there. They're really consistent. They lose every game! ezskinsezlife. Na'vi makes my head hurt.

2014-09-22 10:57

Hope see Og in that list! :D

2014-09-22 01:37

dis gon b good

2014-09-22 01:45

Bahrain, Portugal, Algeria, Japan...

2014-09-22 02:04

Who you want instead ?I think it's good to have a lot of new teams from around the world with that many eu teams.

2014-09-22 10:27

Some of America's teams has more level that these countries in my opinion For example? South America: Peru = Revenge. Brazil = programing.TD & GA Argentina HAD isurus, FuriousGaming, RtN, but now there aren't tournaments here, so the teams really don't care. No sponsors, No cs. Also Venezuela.

2014-09-23 16:54

You don't even know the teams which just got invited and you want some other trash instead ?Algeria and Portugal probably have better teams than Peru and Argentina, and Fallen's team is invited for the Brazil slot.
