ImageThe final tournament prior to The International has finally come to an end. The Swedish team Counter Logic Gaming defeated their Chinese opponent Invictus Gaming in the Beyond the Summit World Tour Tournament in the Grand Finals of a month long tournament that featured 16 teams from around the world.

SE Counter Logic Gaming came out on top of the best of three Grand Finals going 2-1 to win the tournament. Every game was filled with non-stop action from game 1 to the final minutes of game 3. CLG was able to secure the 1000$ winner takes all grand prize.

In game one CN Invictus Gaming Y had superior drafting and was able to secure Naga Siren, Shadow Fiend and Natures Prophet. Having a strong hero for all phases of the game, leaving SE Counter Logic Gaming little choice throughout the game. In game two we saw the drafting of Pudge, being played by DK Rasmus 'MiSeRy' Berth Filipsenshortly after gaining a 11-3 score, Invictus Gaming had to call an early 'good game' even though all their tier 3 towers were still up. Invictus Gaming had a great early game start being able to split push and take both tier 1 towers in the top and bottom lane quite early. In the end SE Pers Anders 'Pajkatt' Olsson Lille was able to farm enough on Lycan to where Invictus Gaming couldn't stop him anymore. And coupled with a bad trade off for Roshan, allowing CLG too take a barracks which led to a strong push to end the game, allowing CLG to win, and thus becoming the champions of the Beyond the Summit World Tour Tournament.
