ESL One - Natus Vincere and Alliance head to New York

ESL One New York is close by and two more teams have qualified for the big LAN event. Natus Vincere and Alliance have qualified for the event and will join the prestigious line-up of teams. The last spot will be played out between compLexity Gaming and Sneaky Nyx Assassins. 

-UPDATE- 

In response to Virtus.pro's statement, Dennis 'Holymaster' Schumacher who is in charge of administration for the ESL One qualifiers, has released a statement stating that Virtus.pro themselves have caused delays and have thus made alternative schedules impossible.

The New York super week is approaching and part of it will be the ESL One tournament in the theater at Madison Square Garden. Today, two more teams qualified for the event, as Natus Vincere beat xGame.kz 2-0. Alliance was supposed to face off against Virtus.pro, but the Russians are currently attending the i-League LAN event and decided not to play from China, considering the bad ping Power Rangers faced in their match from China against xGame.kz. In an official statement on their vk page, Virtus.pro expressed that their are not happy with the way administration handled the scheduling for the team.

Natus Vincere's victory over xGame.kz was sadly also tainted by yet another DDoS attack, resulting in a one game defwin for the Ukrainians. 

The action is set to continue and finish off tomorrow as compLexity Gaming takes on Sneaky Nyx Assassin's in the last bo3 of the ESL One qualifier. The winning team will join Evil Geniuses and Na'Vi.US as the third North-American team to travel to New York. Four spots have been given out to European teams with Cloud9 and Team Secret qualifying through the winner's bracket after winning against Alliance and Na'Vi respectively. The last region in the qualifiers was China, which saw Vici Gaming emerge victorious without dropping a single map.
