The first day featured the group stage seeing sixteen teams being cut down to eight as they proceed to the playoffs. The biggest upset of the day sure was when Paragon of Virtue sent home mTw. The Danes did even not make it through the group stage, as they also lost to GamePlay (former roccat). Aside from mTw not advancing, all the favorites advanced.

An inform GamePlay will be taking on MYM in the first round, possibly the most eagerly awaited tie of the round,well worth watching. The Swedes from fnatic will take on Evil Geniuses, the two last met at the KODE5 Global Finals where the Americans came out on top. Made in Brazil will have a shot at the team who knocked out mTw as they face Paragon of Virtue. Will the Americans stand a chance, or was the show versus mTw just a one-time performance? The American hope consisting of x3o will take on SK Gaming in the last match of the four upperbracket round 1 matches.
