ATK Arena dominates at EGL One – Final standings and highlights video

Over this past weekend, the EGL One CS:GO tournament from EveSports and powered by Intel came to a conclusion. We saw some fantastic casting and great local CS:GO esports action take place, especially on the final day. Here’s what went down during the EGL One tournament and the finals, as well as a highlights video.

A total of 52 teams battled it out for their share of the R50,000 prize pool over two months, starting with qualifiers and culminating in a playoff bracket. In the playoff bracket, tournament favourites ATK Arena took out Energy Esports and Goliath Gaming to claim their spot in the EGL One grand final.
