Challengers[edit]

1 Post-"French Shuffle", Titan receives Team LDLC.com's spot from ESL One Cologne by signing Switzerland Maniac, France KQLY, and France apEX in France NBK-, France SmithZz and Belgium ScreaM's places. France NBK- and France SmithZz move over to Mercenary.
2 Post-"French Shuffle", The players of Epsilon eSports also leave the organization and continue as BST. France kioShiMa and France shox also both move over to Mercenary and are replaced by former Team LDLC.com player France Uzzziii, and former Titan player Belgium ScreaM.
3 BST are signed by Epsilon eSports. [2][3]
4 Epsilon eSports replace France fxy0 for France sixeR. The fate of their legend's status is currently unknown due to only having two players from the previous major's Epsilon lineup. [4]
5 Team Dignitas replace Denmark aizy for returning player Denmark cajunb. [5]
6 Sweden Fifflaren retires and Ninjas in Pyjamas the next day sign Sweden Maikelele (formerly known as eksem). [6][7]
7 After qualifying for the major, Team iBUYPOWER release United States DaZeD and Canada steel and eventually sign United States desi and United States nitr0. United States Irukandji also joins on board as a coach. [8][9]
8 Titan is disqualified due to France KQLY receiving a VAC ban, also leaving only two players from the old Team LDLC.com team. The spot is to be filled at a qualifier hosted at Inferno Online Stockholm. [10]
9 Epsilon eSports is also later disqualified due to France Sf receiving a VAC ban. The spot is to be filled at a qualifier hosted at Inferno Online Stockholm. [10]
10 HellRaisers confirm that Ukraine B1ad3 will be coaching their team. [11]

Overpass
Map 3, Overpass, originally ended 13-16 with Fnatic winning the map and the series. However, Team LDLC.com filled a complaint against "pixel-walking", suggesting that Fnatic had performed a boost that was against the rules. DreamHack originally decided that the second half of the map would be replayed for the reason that the position of the boosted player allowed the player to see through transparent textures. Fnatic then filed a complaint against a boost that LDLC performed, which also allowed them to see through transparent textures. Additionally, DreamHack announced that they discovered that both positions allowed for an "immortal bug". [12] Fnatic ended up forfeiting.[13]
