In the heart of summer, July 5-17, The Cathedral of Counter-Strike will once again host the culmination of all excellence the game has to offer. 24 teams will fight for not only the prize money, another win in the Intel Grand Slam, but above all one of the most prestigious titles around. As an EPT Championship it grants a plethora of points for ESL Pro Tour and being hosted in LANXESS Arena it creates an atmosphere like no other.
