SK complete StarSeries i-League Season 5 list

16-5-2018 13:05

The Ukranian organizers have revealed that SK will fill the last remaining spot at StarSeries i-League Season 5.

SK add yet another event to a busy summer schedule with the team already attending ESL Pro League Finals, Adrenaline Cyber League and ESL One Belo Horizonte in May and June.

The Kiev event, which has a $300,000 prize pool, has been ridden with declines from other invited team such as G2, FaZe and fnatic, with North, Virtus.pro and Gambit replacing them.

coldzera and his men are going to Kiev later this month

The Brazilian-American side is currently in Dallas for the ESL Pro League Season 7 Finals, their first LAN event with coldzera as their in-game leader. They are looking to better themselves after a disappointing year so far, reaching the quarterfinals at IEM Katowice and going out in the group stages of both IEM Sydney and DreamHack Masters Marseille.

With SK's invite, the full team list for Starseries i-League Season 5 is as follows:

Liquid	MOUZ
NRG	HellRaisers
AVANGAR	GODSENT
Natus Vincere	AGO
Ninjas in Pyjamas	Renegades
VG.Flash	TYLOO
North	Virtus.pro
Gambit	SK

wow so many good teams Have a nice day! -VeryNiceGuy

2018-05-16 19:36

prety sure c9 refused invitation

2018-05-16 13:11

They did, they want some breathing room to prac with fns

2018-05-16 13:32

Yeah, watching c9 getting raped by faze again and again is fun

Did you watch the major?

2018-05-16 16:54

No, I just watched them against Heroic, lool

2018-05-16 23:29

I’m not saying C9 is good but they always play well vs faze

2018-05-17 00:23

And I hope they bring good casters too, EPL finals have good teams and is a stacked tournament but casting teams SUCK :/

The better casters will be out for the playoffs

2018-05-16 16:55

tier 2-3 event

2018-05-16 16:41

2018-05-16 16:49

Cool meme man only navi sk mouse and liquid are good

2018-05-16 14:38

No AST no FaZe no FNC. Fixed 4 s1mple vincere, clearly

2018-05-16 14:53

Literally not a single top team there...

2018-05-16 15:12

Na`Vi?Mouz?

2018-05-16 15:14

9 replies

None of them should currently be top3. It should be astralis, faze and fnatic. Sure navi has simple, and they if he carries, they can win games. Mouz has just looked off the last two events.

fnatic XD

2018-05-16 16:22

Well fnatic won some tounaments, and did it against top teams. :)

2018-05-16 16:30

Still lost to Na‘Vi unlucko malucko

2018-05-16 18:39

Sure, the losses have gone both ways.

2018-05-16 18:46

fnatic top3 LUL

2018-05-16 16:23

Argentina on a esport site...

Retard answer , we are talking about fnatic top3 , although you’re danish you know nothing about cs :/

2018-05-16 21:41

2018-05-21 12:16

ez edit: fuck so close

Proffeseur IE? twitter.com/SK_deadcsgo/status/995750540..

2018-05-16 13:21

Cool

SS -_-

No faze, no G2, no Fnatic and no Astralis...3 top5 teams not attending is hard...

They all declined invites

All of them declined the invitation . do you see how many events are in june - may ? their busy its schedule and they need to focus on most important ones

Astralis as well? Didn’t read that... And still it’s sad for the event and the fans there

Yeah they aren’t obligated to come to every event. Teams like Fnatic are probably preparing for their next LAN, G2 are probably sorting out problems with thier roster. Faze may be taking a break after epl finals. May-june are extremely packed full of good CS even not top tier CS like Dreamhack open tours, Adrenaline cyber league and star series obviously. There are also qualifiers for cologne and the faceit major happenening soon

2018-05-16 15:55

G2 top5???? They are shit rn

2018-05-17 02:32

Didn’t say that G2 is top 5 xD I meant Fnatic, FaZe and astralis

2018-05-17 08:04

easy for ma boi STEW

Tier 3 invite ...

Where r this tier 1 teams ?

tier 3

Sad there are no faze, g2, fnatic and c9 And f3 ofc :(

2018-05-16 13:08

F3 should get to majors first, and even then they will get invites to closed tournamet stage.

2018-05-16 13:28

Faze? Fnatic? G2? SS? C9? Wtf is this list tier 3 event

7 replies

SS? Srsly? More wasted than Gambit or North

2018-05-16 13:12

I can understand ss not invited but theyre better team than this t4 t5 teams arent they? And other teams? Faze is top1 but not invited ffs

lol gambot >>> onlinesoldiers

2018-05-16 13:36

Thing is that Gambit is more interesting for Kiev audience. But I agree that SS deserve to be invited for example instead of VP.

2018-05-16 17:28

"...with declines from other invited team such as G2, FaZe and fnatic"

2018-05-16 19:58

have you read the article? faze, g2 and fnatic will not attend because of busy schedule

Who would want G2 in mid 2018 you dumb ass

2018-05-16 13:33

nice nice

2018-05-16 13:09

a couple of years ago this line up would have been very impressive :) will still be a fun tournament though.... looking forward to it!

nice

2018-05-16 13:13

Wasted spot

Rofl event confirmed)

2018-05-16 13:17

Finally good lan without idiots faze

At least some new teams have chances to win.

Faze won 2 tournaments in the last 6 months. And you are acting out here as if they are winning every event... Grow up

2018-05-16 18:15

Ayyyy you finally happy Toilet.Pro gets invited but still have to talk shit about faze lol

2018-05-16 16:44

Haha, SK joining every tournament without the top contenders ... Desperate need to build up their confidence? lol

thats what you gotta do if you can´t even win na only lans anymore ahhahah fucking trash team

2018-05-16 13:30

They didn’t qualify to ECS so they have a free time to visit one more tournament . Why not?

2018-05-16 13:55

VP is playing Kappa

2018-05-16 14:17

t4 lan now, yesterday was tier 3 but with this addition it’s tier 4

where's g2?

lol why did they refuse

Ez 300000$ for NaVi

300k$ is for whole tournament

2018-05-16 16:46

mouz vs tier2-4 lol

NaVi? NIP?

2018-05-16 13:37

simple tier1 navi tier3 nip tier 2.5

2018-05-16 14:12

No C9, no FaZe, no Fnatic, no SS (onliners), no G2... Well with less top teams, maybe this isn't a wasted spot. If SK is elimited even with no top teams = disband please.

Nice mentality... You know that only ONE team will win, right? So should all the other teams disband after one more bad result?

2018-05-16 15:17

Nip Navi or mouz will win

hahaha

lmao they may be the 3rd or 4th best team in this tourney t2 tourney for tier 2 team

tier 2 EVENTS

2018-05-16 13:31

Where is space soldiers?

Yep, they out of an online champ? O.o

Since SK is eliminated from all Tier 1-2 championships in the group stage, it's up to them to try their luck in the Tier 3-4-5 championships. Hopefully they will not waste this spot as in others champs, right?

2018-05-16 13:34

Nice tier2.5 tournament, lol

2018-05-16 13:35

+1, it seems like only NaVi and mouz are capable of winning this tournament

2018-05-16 13:41

NiP and SK could upset some games as well but they are huge underdogs

2018-05-16 13:43

probably semi-finals

you really believe that SK will make playoffs? They will probably lose to teams such as Flash or AVANGAR

2018-05-16 13:44

out of these teams, they better will

2018-05-16 13:45

seriously if SK continue being in such a shit form like now and they will go out in groups at Starseries S5 SK has to kick Stewie and boltz

2018-05-16 13:47

btw where is space soldiers

2018-05-16 13:38

NaVi vs Mouz final Ez prediction

2018-05-16 13:39

T3 event at max

2018-05-16 13:42

Assuming Astralis has declined as well, this is the right choice.

Why the fuck did fnatic and faze not accept the invite, now its a tier 3 tournament with shit teams

you dont seem that happy, Mr. HAPPYESTGUY

2018-05-16 14:32

Sad day for HAPPYESTGUY

2018-05-16 14:50

What has happened since it is a sad day for mr. HAPPYESTGUY?

2018-05-16 22:02

B R O K E N T A G

2018-05-16 14:48

You know French CS is in limbo when there isn't at least one french team invited in this kind of event... Please ShoxieJESUS, save french CSGO !

2018-05-16 14:54

This event is giving the lesser teams a chance to prove themselves

2018-05-16 15:15

Yes, it's a chance for SK! Ok, I'm just kidding. :) I actually like SK and believe in their new setup.

2018-05-16 18:12

Ago vs VP? :D

2018-05-16 15:54

Hmm why no FaZe, Fnatic and Astralis?

Tight schedule I guess

2018-05-16 17:04

They already gathered a lot of money from the beginning of the year, hence decided to make a short break.

2018-05-16 17:31

makes sense, still dissapointing to see 2 of my fav teams missing this tournament. Gonna root for Na'Vi and S1mple then.

2018-05-16 17:59

The line up is still very impressive, can't wait for the event.

2018-05-16 17:29

No Faze No Astralis = Tier 2 tournament

2018-05-16 17:44
