The two finalists of the ELEAGUE 2018 Major, FaZe and Cloud9, have been confirmed as participants at the first premier CS:GO event to be held in France, DreamHack Masters Marseille. The tournament will feature a $250,000 prize pool, 16 teams, and will be held on April 18-22.
FaZe and Cloud9 have already played three BO3s this year
Following the Major, FaZe continued to pick up solid placings, but failed to grab a trophy at either StarSeries i-League Season 4 or IEM Katowice 2018, losing to Natus Vincere and fnatic, respectively. On the other side, Cloud9 have been on a downward trend, as their Major victory has been followed by a second place at cs_summit 2, a group stage exit in Kiev and a top six in Katowice.
Six teams for the upcoming DreamHack Masters event are now known:
Astralis | SK |
MOUZ | G2 |
FaZe | Cloud9 |
