The European Console League is just a few days away from opening the doors to their first event. Kicking off on Friday July 30 and running through to August 1, £25,000 has been allocated across five games including Call of Duty 4 where SK Gaming will be competing.

The new-look SK Gaming side has been awarded the number one seed for the competition ahead of rivals fnatic and the recently-recruited Power Gaming team.

Although the last Call of Duty 4 event, EGL, took place last November, the placements still carried an influence when it came to seeding teams. To compensate for the long amount of time since the LAN event the tournament organizers also took opinion-based votes from team leaders which carried equal weighting on the seeding outcome.

The seeds are as follows:

1) SK Gaming
2) fnatic
3) Power Gaming
4) Reign
5) Royalty Gaming
6) Rumsey's Angels
7) Imperial eSports
8) Team.IX
9) teamGamerHut
10) 4Dead
11) The Naughty Bandits
12) Corona (Frazo Facebook)
13) mythiX eSport
14) Team Vanity
15) Team eMpathy
16) Secret
17) Generation!
