ESWC 2012 viewer's guide

1-11-2012 22:43

ESWC 2012 is already underway with French qualifiers, while the international competition will start on Friday. We will now present you with the complete viewer's guide for the international CS:GO tournaments, both male and female.

Electronic Sports World Cup has always been one of the most prestigious events in the scene, usually taking place in Paris, France, and it is no different this year. Although CS:GO is a new game and is not one of the main titles at the event, all the teams in attendance will in fact be fighting for the first World Championship in their new careers.

$20,000 will be up for grabs in the male tournament, with $10,000 going to the winner, while the female tournament will hand out a total of $10,000 with $5,000 going to the first placed ladies.

Ninjas in Pyjamas are currently regarded as the best team in the world and all eyes will be on them, but with this being a new game and since most of the teams will be meeting each other for the first time, anything can be expected.

So, in order to help you not miss out on any of the awesome action that is ahead of us, we will present you with a viewer's guide. However, at this moment the exact order of match-ups in the group stage is not decided, so we will fill in the time slots when this information becomes available.
