As one of the largest StarCraft 2 populations, Sweden will have sixteen players in Annexet Glove in Stockholm. They will fight through a double elimination bracket to divide $15,000 and win three seeds into the European continental finals.
Norway, Finland and Denmark will each have four players on spot, playing the final four matches of the tournament. The prize pool for each is $5,000 and the national champion will be the only one that will earn a spot in the EU continentals.
As is the natural course of events when players from four nations come together at one place, the player pool for the Nordic finals is heavily stacked, featuring many of best players west of Korea.
