RaidCall EMS One CS:GO Spring Finalists Meet In Cologne April 13th

ESL’s new premier gaming competition RaidCall EMS One in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive to have live event finals on April 13th – 35,000 US Dollars prize purse distributed between best eight teams in Europe

Cologne, April 5th 2013 – The best eight European teams in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive will travel to Cologne (Germany) to define the winner of the RaidCall EMS One Spring 2013 season – 35,000 US Dollars will be on the line. The finalists will come prepared and very willing to dethrone Ninjas in Pyjamas as the best team in the world, and yet the Swedish favorites feel confident to add this prestigious title to their impressive achievement portfolio. The event will commence on April 13th in ESL TV’s own TV Studio in Cologne (Germany) at 11:00 CET and will be streamed live to the community via Twitch.tv, the global leading streaming platform for video gamers.

These best eight teams have had a hard time qualifying for the live event finals. Overall, more than 400 teams fought to qualify for this brand new premier gaming competition. The RaidCall EMS One had four weekly online cups where teams had to gather enough points to move on to the second phase, the group stage. Sixteen of Europe’s best successfully made it into the group stage and were divided by four. In a classic Round Robin format, the teams of five played each other, and the best two qualified for the live event finals in Cologne (Germany). And now, one of them will be crowned the European Champion.

Tickets are currently being sold to attend the event as part of the live audience who will be able to see the best Counter-Strike: Global Offensive teams in Europe play against one another: emsone-spring2013csgo.eventbrite.com
