Running from June 25-29, the tournament will act as the European qualifier for IEM Chicago, where $250,000 will be on the line. Eight teams - seven invited and one qualified - have been split into two double-elimination groups, featuring a best-of-three format after the opening round of fixtures.

The top two sides from both groups will move on to the single-elimination, best-of-three playoffs.
