Kinguin, Imperial confirmed at DreamHack Montreal

11-8-2018 21:20

Kinguin and Imperial have been invited to compete at DreamHack Montreal, the event's organisers have revealed.

With this announcement, the team list for the Canadian event now features seven teams, which means that there is just one invite left to be announced.

Kinguin follow in the footsteps of fellow Polish side AGO, who were announced by DreamHack on Friday. Wiktor "⁠TaZ⁠" Wojtas's side recently attended the Europe Minor, where they went out in the group stage following defeats to Sprout and Red Reserve.

Kinguin will attend the DreamHack event in Canada next month

This will be Imperial's first LAN event since revamping their roster with the additions of Ali "⁠hAdji⁠" Haïnouss and Eimantas "⁠pounh⁠" Lazickas. The DreamHack Open Summer champions took part in the recent European closed qualifier for StarSeries i-League Season 6, losing to Fragsters 1-2 in the final.

DreamHack Open Montreal will take place from September 7-8 at the Olympic Stadium, with a $100,000 prize pool on the line. The team list for the event currently looks as follows:

Invite #8

0 NA teams?

2018-08-11 21:40

Not everyone speaks your "tresh" (just joking don't become mad) idiom completely correct, please respect.

2018-08-12 21:10

ENCE makes it not trash

2018-08-11 21:37

2018-08-11 22:11

they will want the free money

its invite. not qual.

so? I'd assume DreamHack would want them over EUnited as NRG is a bigger brand. It's probably up to the team

ok not gonna talk with u anymore:-Ddd

2018-08-11 21:29

hahahaha

Luminosity?

2018-08-11 21:56

6 replies

Luminosity are Brazilian so SA not NA

2018-08-12 03:01

They are playing and living in USA, so it's NA

2018-08-12 03:23

2018-08-12 10:09

But they’re a 5 man Brazilian roster, when Optic lived in America with their full Danish roster they weren’t an NA team, they were a Danish team

2018-08-12 11:25

because it was temporary dude

2018-08-12 19:35

Fine, Bravado are a South African team, not an NA team

2018-08-12 20:06

Ez final between ENCE and Kinguin Ez Pz

2018-08-12 03:19

Because all top 30 NA teams besides NRG either are in the major or were invited

2018-08-12 05:56

I guess, but teams like EUnited, Ghost or Swole Patrol looked pretty likely based on the fact that it’s an NA event

2018-08-12 11:26

N OMEGALUL RTH AMERICA

2018-08-12 07:51

they should invite swole patrol

2018-08-12 20:31

NICE GOOD LUCK!

+HELLRAISERS

Hellraisers will be at the major at that time

2018-08-11 21:25

Ez4ence

wtf the majority of the teams coming are from europe i NA event oO only luminosity from another continent, and not NA aswell!

Guess good for them to travel to another continent Also all will have equal jetlag problems

yes that's good for them, but if no NA teams in a NA event there will be less ppl to come watch in the arena

2018-08-11 21:30

that's necessary if you want a good quality tournament

2018-08-11 22:01

Just look at what went thru NA Minor. There isn't anyone to invite, except NRG.

2018-08-12 00:24

They'll invite canadian Ghost

2018-08-12 00:47

2018-08-11 22:24

North is at major qualifier

2018-08-11 22:28

oh, right. that means that it's definately not gonna be either Rogue or coL though.

2018-08-11 22:55

Correct. I hope to see NRG but could be ghost or maybe an aussie team
