First to qualify were Counter Logic Gaming. The team set out against mouseSpaz, securing a two map sweep with a 16:12 score on de_Train, followed by a 16:9 victory on de_Mirage. Next up were Luminosity Gaming, coming out of a victory against NRG Esports. The team managed to snatch a map off CLG, however the end result was a victory for the North American representatives, whereby the first map, de_Overpass was conceded at 6:16, but the team caught up in the latter two with a 16:5 W on de_Mirage and an extremely close 16:14 on de_Train. Finally the US roster faced the Australians of 
Renegades, where an initial 16:13 victory on de_Cobblestone was followed up with an 8:16 loss on de_Mirage, only to culminate with a 16:13 victory for CLG on de_Cache.
Team Singularity, on the other hand, only gave up a single map over their run. Kicking off against ajukreizi, the team made fast work of the Danes with a 16:8 score on de_Mirage and a 16:7 win on de_Overpass. Next up was a more well-known opponent in 
PRIDE, a team that was able to produce a bit more fight against Singularity. The first map, de_Cache saw overtime after the teams managed to secure a 12:3 half each. In overtime the Danes proved to be stronger, going 4:2 against the Poles. Closing out their semi-final match-up, Singularity scored 16:10 on de_Nuke, securing a placement in the grand final of the closed qualifier. In the grand final they would once again face a Danish roster, on this occasion it would be NaToSaphiX's Team123. De_Train was a gruelling experience for both teams, with Singularity coming out on top after a triple overtime at 25:21. Next up was de_Nuke, where Team123 proved to be too large a bit to swallow at 13:16. Concluding the series was de_Inferno, where Singularity smashed the opposition, winning with a 16:8 score.
