After a long wait, here we finally are about to start ESL Main Season 1. After a long and somewhat unexpected relegation tournament, quite a bunch of teams have joined the 10 originally invited teams, into ESL Main (the league’s top flight currently). With teams such as Devastation, Hausen, Formula 1, Motus, and Revolution Sports, this season promises to be truly competitive.

As we are quickly approaching the start of the season, there have been a few matches scheduled that are already catching my eye. These matches, in my view, will make great and exciting matches to watch live.

Match of the Week

Formula1 vs. Devastation USA
Both of these teams are original teams in ESL Main meaning they have been invited to participate, rather than qualifying through relegation. These teams do not lack accomplishments, and the major factor in this match will come down to being prepared, and not necessarily skill. This will be anyone’s match and the team that comes in more prepared should take this one – definitely looks to be an exciting match between two skilled teams.

Here is what Eric "amico" Massimino had to say about the up coming match.

"When it comes down to the nitty gritty, were not going to take anyone in the league more serious then another. I don't know a whole lot about devastation, how much they practice or whether or not they are going to be a tough match but we'll play this just like any other match. We'll do whatever it takes to beat them then move onto the next match. Hopefully it will be an exciting start to this season."
