RGN Pro Series EU reaches playoffs

The group stage for the RGN Pro Series in Europe has ended, with eight teams advancing to the playoffs bracket.

After several weeks of play, the RGN Pro Series has seen its group stage terminate and eight eventual teams advance to the playoffs of the $10,000 series. A few notable lineups failed to advance, such as SK, Team Acer, PENTA and both LDLC outfits.

Group C in particular was closely fought, and a series of tiebreakers had to be played before the eventual advancing teams emerged: dignitas and Epsilon.
