* ESL has announced that it will host a $250,000 CS:GO tournament in Dubai next month. The ESL ESEA Pro League Invitational will take place from September 10-12 at the Dubai International Marina Club as part of GAMES 15, an annual expo dedicated to the video gaming industry. Six teams from all over the world will compete for a share of a $250,000 prize pool - the same figure that was on offer at the offline finals of the ESL ESEA Pro League.
The list of participants for the event has not yet been revealed, but, according to Aftonbladet, Ninjas in Pyjamas are one of the six invited teams.
Taking viewers through all the action will be ESL's own commentary crew, which will include Joe Miller, Lauren "Pansy" Scott and Leigh "Deman" Smith. UPDATE: ESL have revealed all six participants, who will travel to Dubai in September:
As you can see, TSM have been left out, as according to ESL's new world ranking, the Danish side is placed sixth and thus have not received an invite. |
