There will be plenty of storylines to follow in ELEAGUE's upcoming event.
Tarik "tarik" Celik and Jacky "Stewie2K" Yip of MIBR will have the chance to go up against their former team of Cloud9 in Group A.
FaZe Clan will be looking to make noise in the event, as it will see the return of Olof "olofmiester" Kajbjer Gustafsson to its starting roster after a significant leave of absence from the team.
Na'Vi will be looking to turn their impressive momentum from winning ESL One Cologne 2018 into a championship run at the 2018 CS:GO Premiere Tournament.
With eight of the most talented and popular teams in the professional world of Valve's laegendary first person shooter competing, the tournament is set to be an entertaining show of highly skilled gameplay.
