The stakes of the SEA qualifier for the ESL One Frankfurt will be much higher than for their European counterparts, with only 12 teams in with the chance to qualify, and a single-elimination bracket to work their way through.
The eight invited teams were split based on their performances at recent events, with Level One invites such as Can't Say Wips* and Arcanys* joining the four open-qualifier teams in round one. Level Two invites on the other hand, join in round two, meaning the likes of EHOME Malaysia* and Invasion eSports* would only have to win three matches to qualify for the ESL One Frankfurt 2015 in June.
The event which is to be hosted in the Commerzbank-Arena already has a base prize pool of $250,000, making it a highly lucrative prospect for the SEA team able to make it to the main event. Matches start on Thursday 26th March. (full schedule below)
