The International Group Stage ConcludesThe International Group Stage has come to a close, and sixteen teams have battled their way into the Main Event.
Congratulations to Evil Geniuses, Tundra Esports, Team Liquid, Team Secret, PSG. LGD, Thunder Awaken, OG, Team Aster for earning Upper Bracket placements in the Main Event.
Following close behind are Hokori, Fnatic, Royal Never Give Up, defending champions Team Spirit, Gaimin Gladiators, Beastcoast, Entity, and BOOM Esports — who all face the daunting challenges of the Lower Bracket, but still contend for the Aegis all the same.
We would also like to thank Talon Esports, Soniqs, TSM, and BetBoom Team for their valiant efforts throughout year and during Group Stage play.
Each proved to be worthy adversaries, battling to the very last to earn advancement, but in the end only one team will hoist the Aegis, and these elite contenders are the first squads to miss the cut.
