CEVO Gfinity Professional Season 9 Finals

Tempo Storm to CEVO Gfinity S9 finals

19-4-2016 19:09

Tempo Storm have been officially invited to attend the $125,000 CEVO Gfinity Season 9 finals taking place in London from April 28 to May 1.

The CEVO Gfinity Season 9 finals were originally meant to only see CEVO Season 8 champions Virtus.pro as the only invited team, however it appears that massive delays in scheduling the planned four North American and three European qualifying brackets have forced the organisers to issue invites to fill out a few of the slots.

With the $125,000 event kicking off in nine days' time, CEVO have now invited a team from the North American side, Tempo Storm of Brazil. The world's fourteenth best team tried their chances in the second North American online bracket but fell short to CLG in the semifinals.

Tempo Storm will be bootcamping in Stockholm before the CEVO Gfinity finals in London

With two North American brackets and a European bracket still in play, it is unlikely that another team will be invited directly to the event unless the brackets (the North American ones are both around the semifinals level whereas the European one is currently in the quarter-finals zone) somehow fizzle out.

The current team list for the $125,000 event from April 28 to May 1 is therefore:

Virtus.pro	Natus Vincere	OpTic	Dignitas
Tempo Storm	NA Bracket #2	NA Bracket #3	EU Bracket #2

*Click on the bracket links to see the possible teams in contention to qualify for the finals.

The CEVO Gfinity Season 9 finals will be the next premier CS:GO event, running from April 28 to May 1 at the Gfinity Arena in London and with $125,000 on the line.

Confirmed to London. Thanks @cevo and @Gfinity for the opportunity. pic.twitter.com/96DPbC1Ijz

2016-04-19 23:13

why LG in bracket and tempo invited lol clg could beat lg because of how bad lg is online and lg wouldn't be in the tournament lol

2016-04-19 19:14

2016-04-19 21:17

2016-04-19 21:24

At least they get invited for this after not being invited to ECS

2016-04-19 19:12

CEVO are fast becoming a joke, invite VP and TS because they can't qualify legitimately loool

Vp did win last time

2016-04-19 19:19

ok fair enough but inviting TS is stupid

2016-04-19 19:21

True

2016-04-19 19:31

yeah like they didnt qualified to malmo Kappa

But TS is a top4 NA with LG, Liquid and CLG. They deserve. I think...

2016-04-19 19:51

Yea but they didn't invite any of those teams, and only one of those three is going to be able to qualify.

2016-04-19 21:25

They probably did invite them by they declined

2016-04-19 21:33

nope all of those teams took part in the qualifier for this tournament so that wouldnt make sense

2016-04-19 21:41

Well then I don't know, lg won't play this tournament since they forfeited their match against selfless in the second bracket. Probably clg will win that bracket and c9 the third one

2016-04-19 21:43

at least they picked a good team, and their games are always interesting

they are not good

2016-04-19 19:40

and what would you know

LOL guess lots of teams turned them down

Did Liquid declined an invitation? Also, CLG and LG on the same bracket, and arguably both are better than TS. Should probably just invite LG.

still didnt understand, why no LG, liquid, clg or cloud 9?

2016-04-20 16:24

ez VP

if someone is wondering why they got invited, it's because they didn't get invited for ECS so they are inviting them for this one. Just to make peace.

Rofl exactly what i was thinking

2016-04-19 19:28

Different orgs though.

2016-04-19 19:33

yeah my bad, invite CLG or Liquid would make more sense then, unless they declined.

2016-04-19 19:39

Different orgs, what makes it a perfect marketing for themselves.. They're fixing the recent injustice invites

2016-04-19 21:21

Yeah but that is different than correcting their own mistake.

2016-04-19 21:57

Niceeeeee!

Why do NA get 3 quali spots? bit shitty tbh

2016-04-19 19:36

8 replies

Because everyone else is eu, even though NA is just as big as the eu continent

2016-04-19 19:42

Tempo Storm isn't EU though.

2016-04-19 21:30

4 NA 4 EU. whats so hard to undestand

2016-04-19 22:23

NA don't deserve 4 spots.

2016-04-19 23:05

bcuz last major we had 2 American teams and 2 EU on semis.. what makes fair enough Americans with half of the spots

2016-04-19 21:23

American =/= NA 2 EU 1 NA 1 SA Silly hue :)

2016-04-19 21:31

Why do you even care? Half over Britain don't even want to be a member of EU and you literally have no pro teams in the EU scene so stfu

2016-04-20 00:11

This is bad bait.

2016-04-20 00:24

fatass bolltz ksy

BULLSHIT

2016-04-19 19:44

2016-04-19 19:53

organizers need to stop inviting so many onliner teams...

2016-04-19 20:01

Where is mouz? They reached the final in the last CEVO Season 8, aren't they supposed to be automatically invited like VP?

2016-04-19 20:02

they changed the rules for s8 so only the winner was invited back

2016-04-19 20:16

They should invite Tyloo, China will dominate the scene soon.

2016-04-19 21:20

That would be really interesting by the way.

2016-04-19 21:59

You obviously dont get how the chinese market works.... The players are made to look like T1 players. But actually break after a few matches.

2016-04-20 00:38
