Epsilon qualify for DH Open Summer

Epsilon have secured a spot at DreamHack ZOWIE Open Summer, held in Jönköping from June 18-21, by winning the first closed qualifier.

The first closed qualifier for DreamHack's traditional Summer event, this year featuring eight teams and giving out $100,000 in prizemoney, was played out yesterday.

Eight teams, including teams such as Epsilon, ENCE, Gambit, PENTA and more, received direct invites for the closed qualifier, with the remainder determined via a best-of-one open qualifier which took place on Saturday.
