Dkt is expected to win his group, with a lot of professional players ranking him above Vo0 and Chance. However, after his first game against Vo0 he will have a hard time as he has to beat Chance in order to advance.

Going up against Sander 'Vo0' Kaasjager it was going to be a close match but still most expected Brian 'dkt' Flander to win. Losing the match 2-0 in maps he put himself in a position of having to win the rest of his matches in order to not be knocked-out early. When Chance 'Chance' Lacina then went on to beat Thomas 'griffin' Wall, mostly due to griffin playing badly his situation got even worse as he can't hope for griffin to upset in any match. However Chance not seeming to be in great shape opens up for Dkt to take the second place.

"Dkt quickly got a frag but then the game slowed down. For seven minutes the players were almost walking around each other, dealing out some damage and trading control back and forth. However, with less than three minutes left Vo0 had control and realized that he had to go on the offensive. Being a lot more aggressive than any of the two had been during the rest of the match he was quickly rewarded with a frag and then continued to steadily get them, giving him the win 6-2."

"Another slow map but with the difference that Vo0 almost always had control. While he did let Dkt get some items, he never let him get a big advantage. Again the frags slowly got in Vo0's favor letting him win 6-1."
