No Grubby in the Samsung Euro Championship

Manuel "Grubby" Schenkhuizen will not be able to play at the Samsung Euro Championship this upcoming weekend. The online preliminary clashed with eStars Seoul, thus Grubby chose to instead attend the MSI Beat It tournament in China.

While the Dutch Orc player takes a go against the Asian top tier in China, this weekend's Samsung European Championship will be an open story with Thomas "ThomasG" Glinski, Heinrich "S.o.K.o.L" Rennert and Valentin "Majestic" Kosorovcev as top favorites.

Tomasz "TeRRoR" Pilipiuk, long-time Undead veteran should be considered a dark horse and might be able to rattle the top dogs' cages a bit.

ThomasG will go up against the Hungarian player Gyorgy "Gorky" Zentai. TeRRoR takes on the Czech Human player h34D_hUnT3R.

The other side of the brackets has S.o.K.o.L paired up with Romanian player Bogdan "norvaS" Raducu, and Majestic against Austrian Marco "MaGGo" Gratl.
