HLTV.org live from New York

From the 30th of September to October 2nd, eight teams will duke it out in the Barclays Center in the New York borough of Brooklyn for a $250,000 prize pool and a chance to win gold in ESL's first large-scale tournament since the Cologne Major.

The tournament will be using the Swiss system in the group stage, meaning that teams with the same win-loss record play each other: three wins to advance; vice versa, three losses and a team is eliminated. You can find remaining info in our viewer's guide here.

HLTV.org are now on site and ready to begin bringing you coverage of the event, including photos, interviews, and any other worthwhile information.

If you want some light reading in between the games on the first day, you can check out our official preview which was written by our very own Milan 'Striker' Švejda.
