Gambit confirmed at EPICENTER 2017

4-9-2017 21:17

The current Major title holders, Gambit, will be present at EPICENTER 2017. The confirmation comes just a couple of days after Gambit's invitation was 'teased' in a video announcement of the event.

Gambit's gradual improvemants payed off at the PGL Krakow Major, where Dauren "⁠AdreN⁠" Kystaubayev and co. lifted their first Major trophy. It seemed like Danylo "⁠Zeus⁠" Teslenko's departure after the historic victory would be a big hindarence to the squad, but they managed to finish top four at the recently concluded DreamHack Masters Malmö, continuing their good run of events.

Gambit will be competing in St. Petersburg this October

Now, Gambit has been announced as one of the invited teams for EPICENTER 2017, which will feature a $500,000 prize pool and be held in St. Petersburg. The majorly Kazakhstani team will be joining the list as the third team, after SK and Astralis were confirmed last week.

That leaves us with three out of the eight invited teams known. Two more teams will earn their spot at the LAN through a qualification process that includes an online as well as an offline stage.

The team list for EPICENTER 2017 now looks like this:

SK	Astralis
Gambit	Invite
Invite	Invite
Invite	Invite
Qualifier	Qualifier

Along with the logos of the three confirmed teams, FaZe's logo appeared in EPICENTER 2017's video announcement, so it is expected that the European squad will be confirmed for the event soon.

Astralis is good, IMT good but needs to stop choking, SK good but need motivation. What's your point, spastic? That Gambit is bad? Caveman logic.

Gambit > Astralis. If Gambit tier 20 so Astralis let's be tier 30.

Dude, can you read? I mean I know you are from Poland, but please lmao. I was arguing that Gambit won't fall to be a 15-20 tier 2 team. No one cares If Gambit > Astralis, isn't even relevant for the discussion.

Undeserved! IMT should be invited!

2017-09-04 22:21

IMT are pretty bad recently imho :)

2017-09-04 23:05

They made it to the pgl finals. It was undeserved but they still made it. How is that bad?

IMT lost to North... I don't think so.

2017-09-04 23:39

Hmm I'm pretty sure Gambit beat immortals to win hmm what was it oh right a major and if I'm not mistaken I think they made it further than immortals at malmo so tell me how is it undeserved?
