G-1 Phase 3 groupings and schedule announced

 

 

 

Fans will have a jam-packed schedule in the upcoming weeks as G-1 has announced the groupings and schedule for Phase 3. Teams that have qualified will be playing against the 4 invited teams namely, NeoES.Orange, DK, iG, LGD.China.

 

Following their upset win over MuFC, LaNM and gang have been drawn in the same group as the two LGD teams as well as NeoES.Orange. This group is a must watch for all DOTA 2 fans for all 4 teams are known for superb chemistry and team play. Can Rattlesnake prove that they are not just another mid-tier Chinese team?

 

In the other group, we have Zenith, DK, Invictus Gaming and the surprise team from Australia, Chains Stack. One thing to note is the fact that Chains Stack defeated For.Love, a Chinese team that had KingJ and Zippo in their line-up. Taking that into account, the team has it in them to step up and give the top-tier Chinese teams such as DK and iG a stiff challenge.

 

All 8 teams have proven themselves and are aiming to advance to the LAN Finals that will be held in China. 4 teams from Phase 3 will join 2 teams from the EU/NA qualifiers to complete the 6 teams wht will compete in the LAN Finals.
