DreamHack Cluj-Napoca teams set

27-9-2015 01:09

After five days of competition at DreamHack Open Stockholm, eight teams are through to the next CS:GO major in Cluj-Napoca: some of them newcomers, some of them returners.

It took five days of action across two different venues to determine the final composition of the 16 contenders at DreamHack Open Cluj-Napoca, CS:GO's next major which will take place from October 28-November 1 at the Polyvalent Hall in Romania's second largest city.

In the end, the eight teams to qualify, four via winners' matches and four via consolidation matches, were: Cloud9, CLG, mousesports, Titan, dignitas, FlipSid3, Team Liquid, and Vexed Gaming.

FlipSid3 and mouz have both secured consecutive major attendances

The 16 official teams for DreamHack Cluj-Napoca are therefore:

fnatic	EnVyUs	Virtus.pro	TSM
Luminosity	Null element Na`Vi	NiP	G2
Cloud9	CLG	mousesports	Titan
dignitas	FlipSid3	Team Liquid	Vexed

Six out of the eight qualifiers will have successfully defended their attendance at the previous major of ESL One Cologne, whereas dignitas and Team Liquid will be newcomers (having defeated both Australian teams to attend Cologne, Immunity and Renegades respectively).

More information about DreamHack Open Cluj-Napoca is forthcoming but those interested in buying tickets for the event can already so here.

That will probably not happen. If they did what ESl did, they'll put 1 top4 placer from Cologne, one 5-8th, and two qualified teams into one group. (i.e. one team from that first row, one from second row and two from last two rows.)

2015-09-27 01:51

Guy above me has no clue what he's talking about haha Basically all 5 of them used the A1-S and since it's update one have adapted to it fully and so either use an uncomfortable A1 or an A4 which they haven't practicd either. Also, their team spirit seems to be at a real low as well as Yam and Havox in a slump

2015-09-27 04:41

6 replies

Pretty much this but I'd put less emphasis on the A1/A4 difference and just say they are in a massive slump. They had a terrible DreamHack London performance and that was before the A1/A4 change.

2015-09-27 05:27

no, they're just all bad players. always were (except jks).

I agree that HR would probably do better in the major but if they can't beat Vexed in BO3, they don't deserve to go through.

2015-09-27 02:15

But HR seem to have much "higher highs and lower lows" so to say. All of the teams you named should at least to be able to make other teams work for their wins and make the games competitive, while HR could just totally bomb out.

Only problem if its still bo1 format and coming from qualifiers they are gonna have either nv/vp/tsm/fnatic in their group. They could end up in a similar situation to Cologne were they lose to VP and than have an elimination match bo1, thats always scary even if you're the better team. Btw, agree with you on Liquid, would be awesome if they actually could contest for the top 1 NA team title. That would be good for the NA scene and the CSGO scene in as a whole.

It'll officially end all disputes related to navi being in the top3 teams, coz if they dont reach semi-finals two majors in a row, they're done for. 5. Titan vs Nv ( and now i think titan can actually put up a fight) 6. Nv vs Tsm, will be a wondrous bo3 to spectate <3 7. Maybe NA will finally break their major curse. 8. Dem sexual stickers \m/

titan beeing a tier3 team... sure silver logic actually i don`t know if the groups are random, or just right... because the first 2 teams will make it out of groups fnatic and luminosity envy and navi vp and nip tsm and g2 then: fnatic vs navi = fnatic win envy vs luminosity = envy win vp vs g2 = vp win tsm vs nip = tsm win and then will have fnatic vs envy = fnatic win vp vs tsm = vp maybe ? if tsm is having a bad day final: fnatic vs vp or tsm see ya all in Cluj, i`ll be there cheering and shouting :D
