Montreal will play host to the second Extreme Masters Global Challenge event this year. It will be the fourth major World of Warcraft event in the span of three weeks in what is quickly becoming a test of endurance for the top teams. Fnatic Orz, Nihilum Plasma, Gravitas, and x6tence are all in attendance, and are top contenders for the title. However, with the tournament being the first to run the new 3.0 patch, we could see a new team take the first place prize, as players have had little practice with it.

The top performer from each group will move on automatically, while the second place finisher will play the third of the opposing group. The event will then conclude with a four team double-elimination playoff.
