Meanwhile, Russian PRESTIJ, whose players split into es4x and PRESTIJ and therefore needed a second spot, managed to top the other side of the bracket, and also qualify for ASUS Final Battle of the Year, whose team list now looks as follows:

Natus Vincere	ESC Gaming	KerchNET
es4x	Place2Play.ru	Virtus.pro
PRESTIJ	ESTJ	Pyörälä
