After Frontline.TDM's removal from the ESL Major Series TDM Groupstage and Reason-Gaming beating METSU in the deciding Group D match-up, the Groupstage officially ended and the best eight move over into the Play-Off stage of the €750 tournament.
Thursday 18th November, the first confrontations should start and there are some interesting match-ups already, especially the 4Kings versus METSU fight. Both teams are often counted as being amongst the TOP 3 and both these teams even were amongst the best three in the last season.
Other notable teams are the two teams that formed out of the LowLandLions TDM team, with Jeffrey "
draven" Debipersad's bloodface meeting the Finnish stronghold of xentorium and Romain "
dem0n" Leclercq's Team Alpha having to combat the star-studded Reason-Gaming line-up.
Should any of the favourites already topple at the hands of newcomers, they will be given another shot in the Lower Bracket and we should have some exciting weeks ahead of us. A white christmas might go hand in hand with a newly crowned ESL Major Series Season 7 TDM winner.
Match-ups:
4Kings ( xx : xx ) METSU
bloodface ( xx : xx ) xentorium 
Fnatic ( xx : xx ) deathreign 
Team Alpha ( xx : xx ) Reason-Gaming
TEK9 will be updating its EMS coverage as soon as the ESL Website finds its way to the realm of the internet again.
