ECS S3 Finals team list determined

8-6-2017 03:39

Four teams from both Europe and North America have assured their place at the Esports Championship Series Season 3 Finals in London, United Kingdom.

Although FaZe and G2 are yet to play two matches in the European league, both are confirmed for the LAN finals. While Finn "⁠karrigan⁠" Andersen's team have already guaranteed the first place with only three losses, the Frenchmen can still aim for second in the group above Astralis and fnatic, the other two confirmed European squads.

Astralis won last year's edition with a 2-0 victory over OpTic

Despite that there are still some matches finishing tonight, four North American teams have already grabbed their place at the ECS S3 Finals, leaving behind the likes of Immortals and CLG. Cloud9 and SK have tied in points (39), but the former have placed first as a result of a higher round difference. With 36 and 33 points, respectively, Liquid and OpTic are the other two confirmed teams.

These are the eight finalists of ECS Season 3:

FaZe	G2	Astralis	fnatic
Cloud9	SK	Liquid	OpTic

The ECS S3 Finals will take place at the SEE Arena, London, from June 23-25, with $660,000 up for grabs.

NiP is like Arsenal. U want them to win, they're the good guys, but in the end they always lose coz they don't want to get rid of their worst players, almost like Arsene Wenger lmao

2017-06-08 19:31

Gonna be nice to watch

2017-06-08 03:47

The NA teams are boring as fuck to watch, but 3/4 of the best European teams + SK makes this a really solid event.

2017-06-08 03:52

- 2 NA slots and +2 EU slots and then we have a tournament. SK + Liquid FaZe + Astralis + G2 + FNC + North + NA'VI 10 times better tournament than 2 na teams.

2017-06-08 10:12

ez for SK

2017-06-08 03:53

If FACEIT continues their pattern, the initial matchups should be: Group A FaZe v. OpTic SK v. G2 Group B Astralis v. Liquid Cloud9 v. Fnatic

2017-06-08 03:54

I think they will. Rip Optic btw

2017-06-08 03:59

Well, if G2 gets placed into 3rd, they will be in the same group as SK, OpTic and Astralis.
