ESL reveals final invites for Cologne tournaments

A total of $500,000 will be on the line in this tournament series, which will be held online because of the global health situation.

ESL has announced the final team list for the ESL One Cologne tournaments that will be held online in four regions after the German event was scrapped because of the coronavirus pandemic. The biggest surprise comes in the form of an European invite handed to MIBR, who HLTV.org knows will be bootcamping in the Old Continent in August.

The online tournament will take place between August 18 and 30, with $500,000 on offer across four regions — Europe, North America, Asia and Oceania. The decision to change the prestigious tournament to an online setting was made last week following an "extensive research and understanding of global travel regulations and individual national guidelines due to ongoing COVID-19 measures."

MIBR will compete in the European division

MIBR, who ended the tournament season with a 7th-8th place finish in cs_summit 6, join a stacked team list that includes seven of the current top 10 sides in the world. The Brazilians' move to Europe freed up a North American spot for Chaos — a curious turn of events, given the tumultuous relationship between the two teams in recent weeks and the cheating accusations towards Nathan "⁠leaf⁠" Orf.

On the tournament's official website, ESL explained that MIBR "had made arrangements" to be able to compete in ESL One Cologne's Play-In stage, the offline qualifier that was scheduled to take place just before the German event. These arrangements included Fernando "⁠fer⁠" Alvarenga and Vito "⁠kNgV-⁠" Giuseppe travelling back to Brazil during the player break. With the United States having imposed travel restrictions on foreign nationals who have been to Brazil in the last 14 days, the two players are unable to reunite with the rest of the team in Los Angeles.

"With the adjustment to an online format and understanding that travelling back into the US is extremely difficult during these times, we've worked closely with MIBR to grant their request to continue with their original planning and have assigned them to the European Division as one of the originally invited top 24 teams," ESL said.

Below you can find the complete team list for the four tournaments:

Europe ($325,000 prize pool):

North America ($135,000 prize pool):

Asia ($20,000 prize pool):

Oceania ($20,000 prize pool):

They need someone to take last place, if a good team gets last place it will have a negative impact on the confidence, which will not be good so they invite mibr to take last spot.

Some teams that have reached Rank 1 have performed poorly right after they peaked for a few weeks. Fnatic and NaVi are just a couple of teams that can be named. Not to mention, BIG has lost to low Tier 1 and a handful of Tier 2 teams in the past year. Now, BIG is not guaranteed to finish last - I only mentioned them as a potential team for finishing last. I'm free to think what I want and I have provided my reasoning.

See my response in #360. I'm not saying BIG are guaranteed to finish last, I'm just saying that they may potentially finish last. I've provided my reasoning for why I said that. I'm not a fan of BIG, but I don't hate them either. I've always had relatively high expectations for them, but they've been a let down more often than not.

I understand dude but in saying that literally every team going has a chance to finish last. Personally I reckon mibr will come in last spot

I guess you could say that. I tried to be as specific as I could, but we'll see. I'm not hoping BIG will get last, but I don't have high hopes for them. If MIBR do get last place, I would be speechless. Have they ever finished last place at a big event?

Mibr should have got the NA spot though in any case and Godsent/Ence were never supposed to qualify to the original event from EU team quota.

this is huge for mibr, i dont expect them to do good in cologne though. However, im hopeful that theyre gonna have a very good bootcamp and gain some good form! I hope to see them play in home sweet home when that returns, seeing as theyre probably gonna have to stay in eu for a while.

The fact MIBR is invited just shows you money trumps everything in this business. God knows MIBR is terrible right now but doesn't matter if they cough up some money. ESL is here to make money folks. Let be real. They couldn't care less about who are invited as long as they can get some money out of it. Business 101. Remember when ESL signed Facebook live exclusive streaming platform deal? Here it is again.

and depends on which country they go to. As a tourist even as a worker from such countries in Germany you have to do COVID test and probably (always depends) 14 days quarantine.

Brazil don't have a shit healthcare system, get your facts together. We didn't have dead bodies moved by trucks or doctors having to choose between patients. Although our government is the worst, our healthcare system is great. Actually, there aren't as many cases per people in Brazil as there is in some european countries, so they don't have a bigger chance of getting infected. That's why they still can fly to europe

dont look at stats my friend. Germany has really low deaths for covid thats because they dont record it as a covid death unless its the main cause. Where the UK for example records all deaths from anyone who has been infected by covid, thus the high numbers there. By stats america have one of the lowest deaths per million population in the world, but obviously have the most amount of deaths. Stats are subjective and can be construde to look how you want them too.

That's some epic BS right there. Stick to your own god damn region until this thing is over. What about Renegades then? Godsent or another EU team should have gotten that invite. Maybe it's due to the number of viewers, since MIBR is a bigger name than Godsent and will bring a lot of BR viewers. Who knows, but either way it's messed up.
