ASUS ROG final teams & qualifier *

9-1-2015 20:08

Final three teams invited to ASUS ROG Winter 2015 are Virtus.pro, mousesports and 3DMAX. The online qualifier will be held on ESEA on January 10-11.

After inviting NiP, HellRaisers and Titan in the first wave of invitations to the $25,000 tournament on January 30-31, the organizers of ASUS ROG have added three more teams.

Joining the trio from our December world ranking are Virtus.pro, mousesports and Aleksi "⁠allu⁠" Jalli's 3DMAX, who will be debuting with their new roster on their home soil.

NiP	HellRaisers	Titan
3DMAX	mousesports	Virtus.pro

Two additional spots at ASUS ROG Winter will be given out via the online qualifier, which will be taking place over the coming weekend, on January 10-11 on ESEA.

The qualifier has been moved from ESEA to FACEIT, and you can sign up for it until it fills up here. The schedule has also been released:

Saturday, January 10
15:00	Round of 64	BO1
16:00	Round of 32	BO1
17:00	Round of 16	BO1
18:00	Round 8	BO3

Sunday, January 11
14:00	Upper bracket semi-final	BO1
15:00	Upper bracket final	BO3
15:00	Lower bracket final	BO1
18:00	Consolidation final	BO3

Winners of the upper bracket final and the consolidation final will qualify for the main event. Times are only estimates, as each match is expected to start as soon as possible.

ASUS ROG Winter 2015 will offer $25,000 in prizes and be held on January 30-31 in Helsinki, Finland. The grand final will be shown live on Finnish national TV channel YLE.

I got what you said. But when? Back in December?

2015-01-09 20:47

not realizing the qualifier was announced ten days ago and complaining about it publicly shows how stupid you are

I am a bit surprised that person who is responsible for the ASUS ROG tournament is saying such a bold words. I am sorry, but this is ridiculous that I missed something what happened ~240hours back. What is more, this article was focused on invited teams, not on the dates of upcoming qualifiers. You lack of professionalism. //You should read some books/articles about 'Communication processes', of course if you know how to read.

2015-01-09 21:58

the bold words are what are gonna keep asus rog on schedule. i don't blame you for missing it, i blame you for whining about something not being published without looking into to seeing whether it was published or not. the information was also on asus rog's official website. edit: hilarious you're suggesting i should read when you're the one complaining about information that was out for over a week.

Never thought you're so narrow minded teenager. Firstly, you called me stupid, now you call me idiot. I really like your aggressive communication style, its nice to see that you're trying to protect yourself, little wolf. :D:D The article you wrote 10 days ago, was concentrated firstly on invited teams, then on prize pool, casters and for the last it was about qualifier. At least you wrote now acceptable heading - "ASUS ROG final teams & qualifier". You could write just "ASUS ROG final teams".

2015-01-09 22:33

you got rekt m8, just stop, it's awkward

2015-01-09 23:47

rekkkkkt, stop trying

2015-01-10 12:56

2015-01-10 12:18

3dmax and mousesport LOW teams

Every tournament needs some "not-so-good" teams.

2015-01-09 20:48

yeah i know they need some support from all

2015-01-09 21:23

3DMAX ez win, ez skinz, ez lyfe

Go Titan! I hope RpK will be in a good form.

almost n1.

2015-01-09 20:25

No Fnatic with cheats yay

2015-01-09 20:31

They are at the other tournament at the same time @ Denver, CO, USA.

Did 3DMAX and mousesports get invited over Na'Vi and Dignitas, or did they just not want to attend? Good for me as a fan though, atleast one Finnish team there. Hopefully we see MMM there too.

All events try to get the best teams,its upto the teams to decide.

2015-01-09 20:37

lurppis was the one who invited them so I was just wondering ^^

2015-01-09 20:38

3dmax deserves a slot,dunno about mousesports. I think with allu,they can upset a few teams,maybe not the top3,but the rest.

2015-01-09 20:39

Well it's same time as MLG so Dig wasn't able to come same comes with LDLC and Fnatic.Idk if Na'Vi even attend to qualis. I think atleast teams like Menace,MMM and RCTIC gonna go to qual and from other countries teams like Orbit,LGB,CPHW and probably Overdrives payteam :D

I knew fnatic will attend some smaller lan at USA after MLG, didn't know about LDLC or Dig or Na'Vi though. Also, hopefully Overdrive picks up some pro's again, it's always fun to watch them :D Also, not sure if Menace is a team anymore, or if they are just tryPANTS now, ex-Menace player sAw joined MMM (suNny, aslak, naSu, sAw, xartE(?) )

2015-01-09 20:52

Well Na'vi isn't going to MLG :D you understood wrong my Finnish bro

2015-01-09 21:16

NIP is playin in MLG and ASUS rog.

2015-01-10 04:57

They obviously invited 3DMAX because they are a finnish team and this is a finnish tournament. There are many teams that would have deserved the spot more if it wasn't because of that. Understandable that they invite the best finnish team though, and with allu they can do good.

2015-01-09 21:24

VirtusPro/NIP to win event,unless titan surprises.

2015-01-09 20:36

Expected choices.Well pasha said earlier that they were invited and 3DMAX ofc 'cause hometournament and Mouz need LAN tournaments and they started to bootcamp also

2015-01-09 20:45

so what teams willbe in qualifyer 10,11th?? penta?

2015-01-09 21:04

allu will wrenck the mouz :)

2015-01-09 21:11

No not face it, god damn it. Also I bought ESEA premium for this, shiiiiiit.

2015-01-09 21:15

It's not like you are Russian so $7 aint much for you

2015-01-09 21:42

lollll switched to faceit so fnatic don't have to play on ESEA client gg

fnatic wont attend

2015-01-09 23:01

2015-01-09 21:17

@lurppis GPlay seems to be attending the qualifiers on the faceit page yet they have a player (dream3r) who has been VAC-banned a while ago. Just giving a heads up. reddit.com/r/GlobalOffensive/comments/2r..
