EPICENTER Moscow Groups Revealed

The groups for next week’s EPICENTER Moscow tournament have been revealed, with the eight teams finding themselves in two groups that, if this were a Major, would be labeled as groups of death. EPICENTER Moscow will offer a $500k prizepool, with a weighty $250k of that going to the victor. 

EPICENTER serves as a proving ground for a number of teams in attendance, and will serve as a test for Ninja in Pyjama’s Maikel “Maikelele” Bill as he attends the first of three tournaments as NiP’s fifth. Not only this, but HellRaiser’s have a large hole to fill that was left behind by Tomáš “oskar” Šťastný, and they will want to show they are still a complete and strong team in Moscow, especially surrounded by such tough opponents. Here are how the groups will look come October 17:

Group A

• G2 Esports
• Ninjas in Pyjamas
• Natus Vincere
• Team Dignitas

Group B

• Virtus.pro
• HellRaisers
• SK Gaming
• Fnatic

EPICENTER Moscow promises to be a warzone, with eight of the hottest teams in the world facing each other for the lion’s share of the prize pool. Follow all the action from October 17-23, and stay tuned to GAMURS.com for full coverage of the event.
