The winner of the closed qualifier will become the fourth team confirmed in the tournament where they will be joining Movistar Riders, sAw, and XSET, while the last four teams will be invited by the event organizer.
K23, x6tence, Sangal, and Lyngby Vikings came through the open qualifier and will now compete in today’s closed qualifier for DreamHack Open December, alongside four invited teams in the next stage which is a single-elimination bracket where all matches are bo3.
Espada has done enough to get some attention on the scene, where they have been a stable presence in the top 30 in the last five months and they have received one out of the four invites to compete in the closed bracket with North, kaban, and Apeks.
Opening match-ups for the qualifier:
Apeks vs. Sangal
K13 vs. kaban
North vs. x6tence
Espada vs. Lyngby Vikings
