10:23 : Group A at Elisa Masters Espoo begins
The $200,000 LAN tournament Elisa Masters Espoo is set to kick off with the first of five days of play, where the six teams who have been seeded into Group A will compete for one semi-final and two quarter-final spots in a round robin format.
ENCE and BIG headline the group as two teams who had just missed out on the playoffs at IEM Rio. The latter arrives at the Finnish event hampered, once again forced to use substitutes as Josef “faveN” Baumann steps back into the German roster to replace Florian “syrsoN” Rische, who will miss the event due to contracting COVID.
ENCE headline Group A
Two more Rio teams play in Group A — Sprout, who eliminated Ninjas in Pyjamas before bowing out of the Major in 12th-14th place, and a GamerLegion squad that nearly made it to the Legends Stage, starting out the Brazilian event 2-0 and a win over Vitality, only to suffer three consecutive losses afterward.
HEET and HAVU round out the group as the lowest-ranked teams. The Frenchmen recently returned to tier-two play with mixed results after missing out on a spot in Rio, while the Finns are attending their first international LAN following the additions of Joonas “doto” Forss, Jarkko “spargo” Rahja, and Jesse “zehN” Linjala three months ago.
