ImageThe main round of ESL's Extreme Masters II for WC3 is over and we know the names of six players that have qualified to the playoffs at CeBIT and eight further names that will play additional matches to qualify.

The Extreme Masters II playoffs on March 6-9 in Hanover will feature ten players. Two of them have qualified through the EM Los Angeles invitational tournament. Four are the tournament main round's group winners. The list of players will be complete after the special playoff matches between players that finished second and third in their groups.

The only question mark left is whether Andrew "fire_de" Regendantz can climb over Yoan "ToD" Merlo to take second place in Group C at the expense of the Frenchman. He will do so if he defeats Grubby tonight.

Group winners:
Samuli "elfittaja" Sihvonen
Juha-Matti "Satiini" Bäckström
Manuel "Grubby" Schenkhuizen
Dmitriy "Happy" Kostin

EM Los Angeles:
June "Lyn" Park
JaeWook "Lucifer" Noh

Group runners up:
Dennis "HasuObs" Schneider
Rene "Ciara" Krag
Yoan "ToD" Merlo or Andrew "fire_de" Regendantz
Mykhaylo "HoT" Novopashyn

Third in their group:
Yaraslau "NightWolf" Kavetski
Lars Gerrit "Protois" Reichelt
Andrew "fire_de" Regendantz or Yoan "ToD" Merlo
Przemek "Paladyn" WadoĊ„

The most notable names that are missing at this stage because they were knocked out of the tournament are the WCG medalist Mihail "XyliGan" Rybakov, Kim "SaSe" Hammar and Daniel "miou" Holthuis.

The ten players will be divided into two groups of five whose best players will go on to a four-man knock-out stage.
