Mettlestate Galaxy CS:GO Championship 2017

Mettlestate announce ~$76K tourney

2-3-2017 16:58

The South African organization Mettlestate has just announced a one million Rand, which is around $76,000, the largest single biggest prize of its kind in the country.

Partnering with Twitch, Mettlestate will try to close the gap between the local and global scenes with a 24 team tournament, twelve of which will be invited and twelve of which can register on the organization's website, here, on a first come, first serve basis.

As an introduction to the season, two of the biggest names in South Africa, Bravado and Energy, played a show match which ended with the latter team winning two of the three maps played, and taking the ~$3,800 winner takes all prize.

The online league will end with a LAN final which will take place in Johannesburg, at the Mettlestate studios, where the top eight teams will face-off on May 4-7. The format, teams invited, and prize distribution will be announced at a further date.

The invited teams are:

Damage Control	xTc
Veneration	Mythic
puLse	White Rabbit
FlipSid3 Africa	Bravado
Aperture	Energy
Ventus	exdee

TOP 1 team south africa = tier 5 europe

2017-03-02 17:52

I'd say closer to tier 3, but it's hard with the limited amount of teams we get to play, would love to be able to play against t3 eu teams on a daily basis. #dreams

2017-03-02 17:57

so you think you could beat heroic or mouz :O

2017-03-02 18:37

definitely not, but I think if we had 2-4 months of playing t3 eu teams we could possibly stand a chance.

2017-03-02 18:57

Dude,heroic and mouz are t2,t3 are like SS

2017-03-02 19:01
