 Welcome to Map of the Month #8, the second month of Season 2!
 
 In addition to eight professional players, Map of the Month brings five brand new community maps. This month, the players will fight in a single-elimination Best of Five format.  MotM regulars sixjaxDDE and Whiplash are joined by relative newcomers like sixjaxViBe and DdoRo.  The fantastic players guarantee entertaining games - and to top it all off, the ESL crew will be casting!
 
 For more information about MotM, see our organization thread!
