Virtus, CM, Reason & Na`Vi to EMS

Virtus.pro, Na`Vi, Clan-Mystik and Reason have managed to qualify for the EMS One Katowice $250,000 tournament.

The upper bracket quarter-finals of EMS One Katowice European Finals took place tonight, offering four of the six spots for the $250,000 tournament scheduled to start in two weeks' time in Poland.

Virtus.pro had the least troubles out of the four match-ups, even though they also trailed early on both maps against the Germans ALTERNATE. Nevertheless, Filip "Neo" Kubski's team came out on top 16-10 on both de_dust2 and de_mirage, to secure their spot at the big event on their home soil.

Neo's Virtus.pro will be in Katowice

Natus Vincere were heavily favored to get one of the spots, and the Swedish side TBA weren't supposed to present a big problem for them. However, after winning 16-11 on de_dust2, the Ukrainian-based side got stunned 5-16 on de_inferno, so it all came down to de_train.

The deciding map ended up going down to the wire, with TBA fighting hard and taking it to overtime, only for Na`Vi to need saving by Ladislav "GuardiaN" Kovacs to take the match into another extra period.

In the end Ioann "Edward" Sukhariev's couple of great rounds gave the Ukrainians the key advantage on the T-side, and they closed out the map 26-23.

GuardiaN, together with Edward, excelled in the overtime on the deciding map
