Sponsored by Intel, this year's Dustin March Madness will involve Team Orbit and Team Property fighting for $10,000, and the right to be called the third best Swedish team in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive.
For those who do not know, Dustin March Madness is a two team LAN tournament that has been held in Sweden for the last fifteen years, at the Ericsson Globe during the Dustin Expo, a trade fair for IT and consumer electronics. In 2014, spectators filled the arena to watch the game between Team Liquid and Team Acer go against one another in StarCraft II. In the upcoming Dustin March Madness, the expo recognized Counter-Strike: Global Offensive as a mainstream game.

This year, Swedish teams Orbit and Property have been chosen to compete one another at the expo in hopes of being a really exciting match-up, as the two teams currently claw at each other to be recognized as threats to Swedish teams Fnatic and NiP. Not one team is said to be better than the other as the teams finished third in the group stages of Gfinity Spring Masters.
The champion of the two will receive $7,000 and bragging rights, while the opposition goes home with $3,000 and more incentive to train vigorously. The match will be a best-of-three and no maps have been announced as of yet.
