[image loading]

In what is another clear sign of Red Bull's support for eSports, the company has revealed the creation of a new tournament called Red Bull Training Grounds. 8 players from around the world are invited to Red Bull's NA headquarters in Santa Monica, California to compete for $5000 in prize money:

ROOT.(Z)Kane
ROOT.(P)PuCK
ROOT.(Z)ViBe
EG.(T)DeMusliM
(T)SeleCT
StarTale.(T)Sound
StarTale.(Z)Golden
(P)Grubby

In addition, the website promises that they will show viewers a behind-the-scenes look at the professionals' strategies (what this entails is somewhat ambiguous but positive in nature). More updates will be posted on their official Twitter link as well as their associate editor's.

some interesting choices. Deservedly so, but I wonder what their thought process was when they chose kane/puck over something a little more hype like HuK/IdrA or something. looks cool, hope they keep the support up.

Perfect player pool. Two decent Koreans (not counting select who lives in the US) and a great European (not counting Demu for the same reason) and slew of great NA players.

Thanks RedBull!

I would have liked to see Bomber over sound/golden, oh well. Seems like a pretty decent lineup for NA fans overall.

I guess energy drinks and esport community gel well together? Nice to see this sort of localized invite tournaments.

Who do you guys think will cast this? Will it be Day9/Husky since they are nearby and they both worked on AHGL before?
