Today's issue of "The Catchup" is here! Grab some popcorn and read up on the most interesting things from yesterday's headlines.
Following Tempo Storm’s team disbandment, eLevate has continued the North American shuffle by releasing their roster as well. Damian "Daps' Steel, Keith "NAF" Markovic and Will "RUSH" Wierzba will continue playing together under new name, while David "XP3" Garrido and Adam "aKis" Kisserberth are free agents and will look for new opportunities.
There wasn’t a lot of action during the previous day. In fact we saw only two matches being played, where the more important one was between Dignitas and Dobry&Gaming in the PGL qualifier finals. The best-of-five series saw all five maps being played in a match which was full of back and forth pushes for both teams. The Danish side managed to prevail and the last spot at the PGL Season 1 went to them.
During previous days, teams got to share photos from their bootcamps. However, today we saw them having a different focus as Natus Vincere players prepared... for a photo session.

French player Nathan "NBK" Schmitt followed Na’Vi’s example and he went for a photo session of his own. Team EnVyUs' player took a picture in front of the billboard with his face and ESL One Cologne banner on it.
