Welcome back Starcraft II fans to the sixth instalment of the Team Dignitas SCAN Invitational! You know the drill, eight players come together on one evening to play a single elimination tournament with the incentive being a £725 prize pool provided by SCAN Computers. The action will take place live on the 1st September at 15:00 CET!
This time, unfortunately, your usual host Shaun 'Apollo' Clark will not be able to guide you through the evening but fear not, the casters replacing him will be more than capable to provide you with an entertaining show. Over the next few days, we will announce the invited players in pairs of two followed by the map pool and bracket on Friday, the day before the tournament.
Why?
1st: £350
2nd: £175
3rd/4th: £100
