The draw for the SLTV Star Series Grand Finals group stage has been complete, with the top two teams from the initial ladder phase - Moscow Five and Empire - earning the right to select their opponents.

Technical issues prevented us from providing an English-language broadcast of the draw live from the Cyber Sports Arena in Kiev, Ukraine, but joinDOTA was on hand nonetheless to witness which teams the two Russian powerhouses selected as their group opponents. In the end, the groups will look like this:
