Here is a rundown of the teams taking part, the group games they will be facing and potentially their most important match of the group stage, semi final matchup and the Grand final.
























Team Dignitas of course will be most peoples favorites for first place in their group, but it will not be an easy ride with the newly formed Queens team looking to make a point a day before EC starts. Recently dropping out of Eurocup Dignitas were a surprise sign-up but a very welcomed one, and as always they will be gunning for 1st place overall but will have the previously mentioned Queens as well as WinfaKt and Next Evolution standing in their way.



A team who will no doubt want to prove what they are capable of, being drawn up against ET supremos Dignitas gives them the perfect opportunity - will they be able take down ET's highest achieving team? With a lot of talent in the team and seemingly a good amount of balance between aim and brain, the question is how much have they managed to play together to build up their team play.



An OVERLOAd side with changes, seems some familiar faces in their lineup in Ati_, Kamz and suVi. The team will aim to take down the newly formed Queens team to have a hope of making the playoffs, which is not an impossibility but will require doing everything right.



The UV team could be a Dark horse of Group A, with no one giving them a chance to make it out of the groups. Their biggest game will undoubtedly be against OVERLOAd but they will need to beat either Dignitas or Queens to have a chance of qualifying for the playoffs. The pings of the NA players do the team no favors but they make it up with some nice team play and aim.





WinFakt have a real chance of taking gold in this competition with their lineup of quality players, but have both N-Evo and Power Gaming standing in their way in the group stage, both teams where it would be foolish to underrate them. Their biggest game will be against N-Evo, a team who have gone through some changes in personnel but will still no doubt be a force to be reckoned with.



A team of well known skilled players, N-Evo will be difficult for any team who faces them. Although I think their biggest game in the group stage will be against WinFakt - progression out of the group stage will only be possible if they beat other teams and forgetting about Power Gaming could backfire on them. I feel if they lose that game, their chances will be hurt more than if they lost against WinFakt.



Power Gaming will not be easy for any of their group stage opponents, impressing in their qualification for EuroCup their aim will be to get out of the group stage here with minimal fuss - I feel their best chance would be against N-Evo although WinFakt shouldn't take this opponent lightly as they have a lot of experience playing together which has formed quite a high understanding between the team.



The former NORDIC-eSport lineup, quite like UV-Gaming, will be a dark horse in Group B - not many would give them a chance to come out of the groups so they have no pressure - a group of talented players non the less who will give all opponents a run for their money, their best chance of a victory would be against Power Gaming, although it would not be an easy game.
