The brazilian ESWC qualifiers are now complete as we wait for the great finals to happen to see more of the new teams and lineups in action.


The ESWC Brazilian qualifiers kick off this weekend and no surprises are in the final qualified teams list. All across the country, different partners ran Pre-Qualifiers to determine the list of teams that will attend the event. The first stage will be held on June 2-3 and the great finals will happen on June 4, at the Universidade Anhembi Morumbi, in Sao Paulo. Until now there is no further information about this final, but the organizers announced that all the details will be revealed in the following hours.

The complete list of Locations and qualified teams follows:

From Sao Paulo, the qualifier took place at Cyber Pinheiros and gave away two spots for the national finals with semXorah.sp and army5 meeting in the finals. (Finals never happened since both teams had already earned their spots).
