The Betway WCA 2016 EU Main Qualifier has been brought to an end, with Epsilon and iGame.com grabbing the two EU spots for the $200,000 WCA 2016 World Finals.

The European qualifier for WCA 2016 started back in August with a 16-team group stage, and teams such as MOUZ and Dignitas joining the tournament when the best-of-three playoff phase kicked off.

In the end, the semi-finals that decided the two spots for the $200,000 LAN finals in China came down to two matches: Gambit - iGame.com and Space Soldiers - Epsilon.

The first match ended up being a huge upset, as the team in possession of a Legends spot for the upcoming ELEAGUE Major—Gambit—lost to the Finns of iGame.com.

The CIS team's latest pickup and legendary Natus Vincere player Danylo "⁠Zeus⁠" Teslenko was struggling the most, ending the series with a -22 Kill-Death difference over the two maps.

In the second semi-final, Epsilon once again showed up with their stand-in Karl-William "⁠kalle⁠" Haraldsen and had an overall good showing against Space Soldiers—who have recently replaced their IGL Tugay "⁠TuGuX⁠" Keskin with Engin "⁠MAJ3R⁠" Küpeli.

The Swedes walked by Ismailcan "⁠XANTARES⁠" Dörtkardeş and co. on Cache and had a 13-2 CT half on Cobblestone, taking the deciding match of the qualification without breaking a sweat.

In the grand final of the qualifier, Epsilon and iGame.com were playing for the lion's share of the ~$33,000 prize pool.

Over Mirage and Dust2, it was the veteran André "⁠BARBARR⁠" Möller who was the most productive in the fragging department, but every Epsilon member chimed in their comfortable 2-0 over the Finnish side.
