Dreamleague 2: Groupstage Complete - Phase 2 LAN beginning

With all the matches over, the second phase for the ASUS ROG DreamLeague 2 will be starting up soon. The top two from each group have been chosen and will be heading off to Sweden to participate in the LAN in just under one week.

The American division of the DreamLeague has finished up and Cloud9 takes first place ahead of Evil Geniuses with a 2-1 win over Sneaky Nyx Assassins. That concludes the groupstage for the tournament and kicks off the second phase. Starting on the 17th of November, the ASUS ROG DreamLeague Season 2 will be going into Phase 2, which means that the top two teams from the four divisions will be heading to Stockholm, Sweden to compete for the top six spots.

Europe East:
Russia Virtus.Pro Polar
Russia Virtus.Pro

Europe West:
Europe Team Tinker
Finland 4 Anchors

Asia Division:
China Invictus Gaming
China LGD Gaming

North America:
International Cloud9
United States Evil Geniuses

Originally Team Empire was going to go in place of Virtus.Pro, but due to siginificant roster changes ended up having to cancel their participation.

Empire was the only team in any of the divisions to not lose a single match, ending 9-0 after all their games were played. Team Tinker came relatively close, with 8-1, but forfeited one of their matches due to fatigue.

In phase two, the teams will play in a round-robin bo2 format to decide who advances to DreamHack Winter 2014. The two best teams from Phase 2 will proceed to the second stage of DHW, whereas places 3-6 will have to battle it out on the first day of the LAN event to decide who continues on and who won't.
