On the European side, Ninjas and Pyjamas and Rogue have already qualified for the semifinals, while Team Dignitas will be facing FaZe Clan and Misfits will be facing Luminosity Gaming for the remaining two spots.

The previous major Overwatch tournament -- ESL's Overwatch Atlantic Showdown -- saw Rogue defeat Reunited. Rogue still stands as a strong contender but will have tough time defeating the favorite Ninjas in Pyjamas.
