First two groups at the Global Challenge in Dubai have ended with the main favorites advancing to the playoffs.

Global Challenge in Dubai kicked off with groups C and D, seeing mousesports, mibr, mTw, GamePlay and more, play for spots in the playoffs. It all began with mTw beating mibr on stage. All of a sudden mTw played a tie with the Brits from dignitas and the group should be decided when mibr had a shot against the dignitas. The Brazilians could secure the second place in the group and advance along with mTw.



Extreme Masters II champions from mousesports should find themselves in a tough group, which turned out not so tough after all. The Germans crushed the Finnish team GamePlay with 21:9 dust2, and with wins against DTS.chatrix and myth, the Germans could advance along with the Fin’s.
