Virtus.pro – The old Gods of the battleground who are dangerously close to taking that number one spot off Astralis after last weekend’s performance.

NiP – The Swedish powerhouse who has had a bit of a struggle after failing to make into the major and placing top-eight at Las Vegas.

SK Gaming – Out with the old, in with the new; and they still look scary. SK is out for blood.
