WinOut Championships groups drawn

The group draw for this weekend's WinOut CS:GO Championships tournament has taken place.

The WinOut CS:GO Championships powered by Azubu.tv will be taking place this weekend at the WinOut Gaming Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

12 teams out of the 16 were directly invited to the event, with others progressing via a series of online qualifiers, a total of 15 teams were therefore determined going into the tournament.

Unfortunately, due to the volatility of the North American scene, at least three teams had to back out of the event: compLexity, Sponsorless (ex-Tempo Storm), and Orgless (ex-LunatiK).
