The ASUS ROG Dreamleague is the highest paying tournament of November – and these teams made it to the finals at Dreamhack Winter in Jonköping, Sweden.

[evil geniuses]

The current leader of the World Ranking is the huge favourite of the Dreamleague. The american team was sixth at the first season in June. But they already lost to [cloud 9] in the preliminaries of this season – twice.

[cloud 9]

[cloud 9] could possibly achieve the greatest success of their career as a team in Jonköping. They beat [evil geniuses] twice in the preliminaries and were ahead of them in season 1 too when [cloud 9] lost the grand final to [alliance] – their biggest success yet.

[virtus.pro]

The current champion of MSI Beat IT surely isn’t to be underestimated. [virtus.pro] is in great shape, though they were only seventh in the first season of ASUS ROG Dreamleague. They barely made it to the finals though – a tie against [cloud 9] guaranteed the last spot in their last match of the preliminaries. One round earlier they were eliminated already, but [team empire] withdrew from the tournament.

[team tinker]

[team tinker] has won three out of the six tournaments they attended since the team was created in August. But they were smaller ones. ASUS ROG Dreamleague is their first global tournament so fans shouldn’t expect too much. In the preliminaries however [team tinker] was the best team apart from [evil geniuses] and [cloud 9].

[virtus.pro polar]

The former [nvmi] is already as successful as the main team of [virtus.pro]. In the preliminaries [virtus.pro polar] had the exact same score as their main team. They secured their spot by a tie against [team tinker]. One round earlier they had knocked out [virtus.pro].

[4 anchors + sea captain]

Probably the biggest surprise in the tournament. [4 anchors + sea captain] beat the [secret team] twice in the qualifiers, knocked out [alliance] and [fnatic.eu] in the group stage and lost only to [cloud 9] in the league stage. So let’s see how far they can go at the finals.
