A few changes has been made prior to the start of the second groupstage. Firstly, the all-important stand-in rule has been modified to better suit the tournament.

4.4 Standins
Besides the official members, a team may use up to two standins for a specific match. This standin or these standins must not be part of another team inside the tournament. If a team makes use of this rule too often, the administration might interfere.


Apart from that, the tournament will also be using the new version rather than the tournament version for the remainder of the tournament. No item restrictions will be enforced in this tournament to put teams' adaptability to the test.

This adaptability will be even more apparent with au [B]Natural 9[/B] and dk [B]SK-Gaming[/B] as they are all set for their first game of the second groupstage. The game will start at 18:30 CET on Sunday followed by the final tiebreaker game between eu [B]SGC[/B] and de [B]J4T[/B] at 20:00 CET. Livestream will be available here at the scheduled time.

As for all other games, the teams have not scheduled their match and will be given the duration of the groupstage, three weeks, to do finish all five games. Do remember to check out our matchticker section from time to time for the latest scheduling information of The Defense.
