SE SK Gaming will be facing off against Poland's finest team, PL Frag eXecutors , in a Best-of-3 showmatch in Warsaw, Poland, on Monday July the 18th. The event will be held in a sportsbar in Warsaw (Lazienkowska 3) which contains 16 40" LCD displays and a 12 metre squared screen, the biggest in Warsaw. A video of the bar can be viewed here.

The bar is an integrated part of Legia Warsaw's new football stadium. Doors will open around 4:30pm CEST, following the official press conference. Apparently entry is free but places may be limited so arrive early to avoid disappointment. Games will broadcast in Polish on headshot TV.



SK Gaming will be on location at the showmatch to provide coverage updates and interviews.

SK met FX just a week ago at the ICSC8 LAN finals in Kiev, Ukraine. SK won both group stage fixtures and a clean two maps to none in the semi-finals of the event, en route to winning the title. Still, FX remains ahead over the year as they defeated SK in the group stage of the IEM V European Championship, the semi-finals of the IEM V World Championship and the final of Xperia PLAY.

This event also marks another meeting of the classic individual matchup of the modern CS era: SE f0rest vs. PL neo. Arguably the two best CS players of all time will try to each lead their team to victory in Warsaw.
