DreamHack Skellefteå has seen the end of day one, we bring you a small update and a preview of what will go on, on day two.The first day at DreamHack Skellefteå saw the WCG drop-in qualifier, WCG group stage and the DreamHack 100.000 SEK group stage. Day two will feature the playoffs in both tournaments. Delays are expected at almost any event, DreamHack too without any exceptions. Due to WCG and DreamHacks own tournament taking place on the same tournament PC’s, the matches being played in one tournament would automatically delay the next matches in the other tournament. With delays the tournaments did find their end of day one, but much later than expected.
Day two will feature the playoff stage for both WCG Sweden and the DreamHack tournament. Just four teams remains in the race to qualify for WCG. The two top contenders, fnatic and SK Gaming, went through the group stage flawless. Joining them in the bracket will be Begrip and Blank.
