Third Week- Astralis, Counter Logic Gaming, NRG, and SK Gamin

 

Each group will compete over the space of a week and play matches on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, which will be streamed online, and on Friday’s on the American TBS television channel. After the first two days of playing against each other twice, the teams will be seeded based on their number of wins. On Thursday, the first seeded and fourth seeded teams will play each other and the second and third seeded teams will compete. The winner of those matches will move on to their group finals Friday on TBS at 10pm EST.
