Game: Counter-Strike: Global Offensive

13 teams have confirmed that they are able to attend the €3,500 SteelSeries GO tournament at Stockholm E-Sport Arena.

While the majority of the listed teams hail from Sweden, three teams from foreign soil are also in the pool: NWA from France, whyME from Hungary and Memories from Belgium.

Although 13 teams have said they are able to attend, the tournament will only feature eight teams, which means the organizers will remove five of the teams.

With two groups of four teams, the tournament's group stage will start out in a best-of-one fashion, while the playoffs will see the competitors play it out in a best-of-three manner.

Preliminary list of teams:

NiP  Kalla Drinkar
Visby Team AIM_MAP
BuggIT SAFEHOUSE
Ljushuvud Gamespace.nu
Mpire163 E-Srael
whyME NWA
Memories  

SteelSeries GO will take place at Stockholm E-Sport Arena, an extension of Inferno Online's facilities, between August 25-26, and you can see the teams' rosters over at fragbite.se.

After looking the lineups through, it should be quite easy for NiP.
2012-08-20 14:22:05
You're looking at their skill in 1.6 and source, cs go is a quite diferent game and who knows what gonna happen :D

Yeah obviously, but you still have to be able to play CS or CSS in order to play CS:GO. Its not for fun that VeryGames and NiP probably will dominate the first couple of months.
2012-08-20 14:49:38
and after that NiP probably will dominate for a long time :D
2012-08-20 16:07:41
verygames > nip

cs 1.6 > csp > csgo
2012-08-20 16:18:05
NiP>>>all

CS 1.6 > CS:GO >>> csp...
2012-08-20 16:35:34
VG will be better than NiP if they play hard like they have done in the css scene
2012-08-20 19:17:56
dude do you really think that VG players are more skilled than get_right f0rest xizt??? really??? lol. I laugh at the people claiming source players will dominate.. FFS, just give this guys 1 month the game and they will ASS RAPE the source players :)
2012-08-20 20:33:17
They're not better natural aimers no (although they are still very good). VG will be better for the same reason they've been better than everyone so far, their ridiculously well thought out drilled strats and disciplined play style.

2012-08-21 20:41:16
Where did I say source players would dominate. I said VG would be better than NiP that's all. VG #1, NiP #2

2012-08-21 20:40:36
you say that based at one match in CS:GO BETA couple of months ago ? lal
2012-08-20 16:35:38
thinking that they(verygames) kept playing day and night cs:go to get better , and the 1.6 players still pracced for some 1.6 tournaments they lost some time to pracc...so yes , and even if they both practiced same amount of time , verygames is theoretically better.
2012-08-20 17:23:35
lol NiP play only CS:GO
2012-08-20 17:24:29
sure , and untill one month ago they didn't practice so much , cause f0rest/xizt/gtr still been playing cs1.6 praccs. and verygames kept practicing , and even if both practiced same time , verygames still better. deal with it
2012-08-20 17:32:41
VeryGames swapped out apEX from their lineup (replacing him with SmithZz), after that they haven't played CS:GO much at all, because they're preparing for i46, which is the last big CS:S event left.

NiP vs. BuggIT in the finals, NiP will win.
2012-08-20 18:12:17
smithz is much better than apex but if they pick up shoxie they will dominate for sure ;) cus shoxie is epic aimer and brainer :D
2012-08-20 20:40:09
Highly doubt you've played versus apEX in CS:GO, because he's insane, he was by far VeryGames standout player in GO..
2012-08-20 22:44:43
nathan was... ex6tenz is the best game leader in css and i know how good was smithz in VG...much better than the apex was...yeah its a new game but i think smithz will be awesome
2012-08-21 13:40:04
I've played vs. them loads of times already in CS:GO, there's no denying that apEX was the better player at this point in time in CS:GO.. could it change over time? Of course, but it doesn't change the fact that he was their best player at the time.
2012-08-21 19:34:57
Lets find out when it matters, and you might speak about this concern. So long !

Never heard about ~90% of these players.
2012-08-20 14:46:40
Its a complete new scene and its a Swedish event with 8 teams.


What did you expect?
2012-08-20 15:30:41
dunno, maybe some 1.6 semi-pro names, or ppls like hyvlarn, i know many players from Sweden, but this event is really boring.
2012-08-20 15:40:29

Did you ever consider that there might have been more CS:GO news than 1.6 news lately?
2012-08-20 17:29:46
maybe because there are not a lot of informations about 1.6 to news atm?
they'll not write bullshits to make u happy
2012-08-20 17:47:09
because 85% of the people passed to cs:go? and the rest like you still stuck on cs 1.6 ? mad people & haters still stuck there. hating the cs:go news, cs:go players, and talking shit everyday about a game you didn't play. you are sick and pathetic please do not comment anymore on this webpage.
2012-08-20 17:47:09
i hope they will all get bone cancer and die. and all cs:go fans aswell
2012-08-20 17:16:38
dunno why css players are called kids
