After two rounds of qualifications which brought another twelve teams to the next stage, the 24 participants of European Championship 2013 have now been drawn into four groups.
Last week saw qualification round two end with twelve winners, including Spain, Norway, Turkey, Netherlands, Serbia and more entering the group stage as non-seeded teams.
They joined the originally seeded twelve containing the likes of Sweden, France Denmark and other countries whose players and teams left a significant mark in the first year of CS:GO.
The organizers drew three teams from both the seeded and non-seeded pools into four groups of six:
Group A | Group B | Group C | Group D |
![]() | ![]() | ![]() | ![]() |
![]() | ![]() | ![]() | ![]() |
![]() | ![]() | ![]() | ![]() |
![]() | ![]() | ![]() | ![]() |
![]() | ![]() | ![]() | ![]() |
![]() | ![]() | ![]() | ![]() |
Matches in the group stage will be played in best-of-one mode until the end of October, after which the top four sides will move on to the playoffs which will use single elimination best-of-three mode. The preliminary schedule based on which the teams should play their matches can be found here.
Same as the previous two times, E-Frag.net recorded and posted the video of the draw for full transparency.
