So far B and H look the hardest. Conzto are very good and A-Gaming are not to be underrated.

A & E are the hardest with TitaNs and Hybrid tbh...

Group B hasn't got anybody who're really that special. Their skill level is the same as some of other other groups the only difference is that people on gotfrag have heard of them before as they're European. I mean Play.IT have never won anything ever even though they're from Italy... Switzerland are too small to make any impact on the scene and Contzo... Well they're a wait & see now aren't they...
