2-12-2012 03:48

Lemondogs have become the seventh team to secure a spot at THOR Open after winning Saturday's qualifier over Hawks.

Almost 60 teams from all over Europe signed up for the eighth and last qualifier for THOR Open with hopes of earning themselves a spot in the Swedish tournament, which will take place next weekend in Stockholm.

The participants' list for the qualifier was practically empty of top teams, but in the decisive match there were two sides who had been on show at DreamHack Winter last week, although Hawks were without Jonas "ScurK" Finnilä.

In the end, Lemondogs came out on top with a 16-12 scoreline on de_train_se after going into half-time up 14-1 following an impressive display on the CT side during the first half.

best teams from denmark (maybe fnatic fits in there too dont know how they are doing) and top 5 in Sweden. Most likely freakshow or hawks takes the last place.

hope so hawks! is definitely way better than freakshow and fnatic they need to participate in leagues already so they can get as much practice as possible :D
