DreamHack Open Summer viewer's guide

With DreamHack Open Summer set to kick off on Saturday, we have put together a comprehensive viewer's guide for the $100,000 event.

DreamHack Open Summer will take place on June 15-17, where 8 teams from the Europe and CIS regions will face off for their share of the prize pool.

The tournament will feature two GSL groups, with best-of-one opening and winners' matches, while the elimination and decider matches will be played in a best-of-three format. The top two sides from each group will then progress to the single-elimination, best-of-three playoffs, which will take place at the Elmia Convention Center, in Jönköping, Sweden.
