With legend Patrik “f0rest” Lindberg appearing in fnatic colours for the first time in nearly 12 years and two Danish powerhouses in the form of Heroic and Astralis vying for the trophy, there is plenty to get excited about in Lund.
The event gets underway with two GSL-style groups, with best-of-one opening matches followed by best-of-three for the rest of the tournament. The top two from each group will then advance to the playoffs.
A double elimination playoff bracket awaits for the best performers from the group stage, with the winners of each group heading to the upper bracket whilst the runners-up face off in the lower bracket. The best-of-three grand final takes place on Saturday 11 May at 20:00 , with $150,000 going to the winner.
The opening matches pit Heroic against fnatic and MIBR against BIG in group A, whilst Astralis face EG.PA and Finest take on Imperial in group B.
Coverage of the event will be brought to you by Josip “brcho” Brtan and Arron “King Dempz” Dempsey, on photography and interviews respectively.
