MIBR Will Compete at ELEAGUE Premiere CS:GO Tournament

According to a report by ESPN, it has officially announced that MIBR will in fact be competing in the upcoming $1,000,000 ELEAGUE Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Tournament. 

The report stated that ELEAGUE had announced that the spot in the highly anticipated CS:GO event would still belong to Gabriel "Fallen" Toledo and the rest of his teammates from the former SK Gaming roster even if they had decided to change organizations before the event had begun. The current MIBR roster consists of Fallen, Fernando "fer" Alvarenga, Marcelo "coldzera" David, Ricardo "boltz" Prass and Jacky "Stewie2K" Yip.

Fans of MIBR will be revealed to have heard the news of the newly formed CS:GO team of the organization will in fact keep their spot and chance to compete for a share of the $1,000,000 prize pool that will be up for grabs at the ELEAGUE CS:GO Premiere Tournament.

With the invitation to the event having been extended to fallen and company when the players were apart of the SK Gaming organization, many believed that SK Gaming would hold onto the rights of the spot. This thought was supported even more by the past precedent that ELEAGUE had set back in 2016 when the organization eliminated the group of Brazillian players after they had changed organizations from Luminosity Gaming to SK Gaming during the first season of ELEAGUE.

However, the MIBR CS:GO team will have the chance to capture the first championship under their new brand during the ELEAGUE CS:GO Premiere Tournament that will be taking place July 21-27 at Turner Studios in Atlanta, Georgia. The talented roster will be facing off against the rest of the field that includes FaZe Clan, Astralis, Cloud9, Fnatic, Mousesports, Team Liquid and Natus Vincere.
