After 2 weeks of nations coming together and fighting to the death until the timer runs out or win conditions have been met 14 of these countries have made their way out of the group stages in to the Round of 16.

With Israel and Czech Republic each winning a map when they met resulting in a tied score for the highest seed in group D and when Ukraine met Romania in group G also drew their game these countries still have to play a tiebreaker to figure out which team places where in their respective groups and go through to the next round if a tiebreaker game has not been played already.

Tiebreakers will be played as a Best of 3 in the upcoming week and the Round of 16 will start on August 5th, or earlier even if these matches get played sooner!

Following the playoffs during the Round of 16 teams will be paired against teams in their nearby group, having 1st place team from Group A playing against 2nd place team from Group B, with the same trend going on for each paired group.

Group A vs. Group B
England (A1) vs. Netherlands (B2)
Germany (B1) vs. Spain (A2)

Group C vs. Group D
Wales (C1) vs. Israel ¹ (D2)
Czech Republic ¹ (D1) vs. Italy (C2)

Group E vs. Group F
Denmark (E1) vs. Poland (F2)
Finland (F1) vs. Scotland (E2)

Group G vs. Group H
France (G1) vs. Russia (H2)
Sweden (H1) vs. Ukraine ² (G2)

¹ Czech Republic – Israel Tiebreaker
² Romania – Ukraine Tiebreaker

SVIFT coming in after losing the upper bracket final from Se7en, but being the first team to take a map off of the invincible giant. the bin on the other hand faced off against their counterpart the bin BLACK and managed to get out a convincing win. Will this match be a repeat of their game in the first round on playoffs or has the bin gained additional motivation after their victory?
