The first country qualifer for the Gigabyte Nvidia DOTA 2 Summer Cup is just minutes away and we can already foresee that this will be an intense and action packed kick off of the competition. 16 battle ready teams will be competing for a spot at the main event where two teams from each qualifier will be advancing and will face the other winners of the qualifiers on the 28th and 29th of September. 

 

PARTICIPANTS

First Departure	Just For Fun	Lightworks	wtx2
Daedric	Chens Stack	Insidous Idol	aberden
XPLICIT	Unconquered Recreation	Ryoshi	Wings for Freedom
Release the Kraken	MeowMeowGang	Impervious	Of Course :X

 

With some of the familiar names present in this qualifer, it definitely added more heat to the competition and challenge to those who are trying to make a name for themselves, indeed it will not be an easy road ahead of them. We already know First Departure and Impervious who are currently competing in the RGN DOTA 2 League - Elite and obviously doesn't need that much introduction. While for XPLICIT and Insidous Idol, they are among  the teams who are usual competitors of online tournaments. They may not have won, but they definitely made the other teams run for their money and showed great potential. Will this finally be their time shine? Or will they be outshadowed once again by their fellow competitors? Let's all find out tomorrow as we kick off the Singapore qualifiers with these 16 battle-ready teams.
