FACEIT to host DH Winter qualifiers

From November 27-29, DreamHack will be hosting its second major CS:GO tournament, featuring 16 teams from all over the world and a whopping $250,000 prize purse.

Once again, FACEIT has teamed up with DreamHack to host the online qualifiers for the Swedish event, with five places up for grabs in the European tournament and one in the North American section.

This weekend, FACEIT will host two qualifiers that are open to up to 256 teams. The top four teams from both cups will move on to the regional finals on October 21, in which they will be joined by eight invited sides.

The top four teams from this closed qualifier will automatically earn a spot at Dreamhack Winter, while the sides who place 5th-8th will face off in a last-chance tournament for the last place in Jönköping.
