List of Participating Teams and Prizepool for the ESL One New York Tournament

ESL officially announced the list of participants and distribution of prizes for the ESL One New York tournament taking place at the Barclays Center on October 1-2. There were 8 teams competing, and the prizeppol from this CSGO tournament was $250,000.

This tournament uses the Swiss system match format, where 8 teams face each other. If there is a team that has won 3 times, it will advance to the single-elimination, best-of-three playoffs. The team that suffers three defeats will immediately be eliminated.

What will be interesting in the match will be the meeting between Virtus.pro against fnatic, and Aleksandr “s1mple” Kostyliev’s who is now defending Natus Vincere will play against the Liquid team he has previously strengthened. We are still waiting for the team that passes the qualifying round for the North America region, which will face SK Gaming, which is CSGO’s number one team.
