ESL pro League Season 6 finals to feature new format

ESL Pro League Season 6 format will undergo a major change, the tournament organisers have revealed to HLTV.org. The teams will be given one team that they can choose to avoid. This one team will then be placed in the opposite group. Instead of using the regular season placings to determine the groups for the finals, ESL will give the competitors the opportunity to pick one team they want to avoid, who will be placed in the opposite group. This opportunity will be provided to the winners of the previous season. For Season 6 thes winners of Season 5 from the respective divisions will be given the chance. they are Fnatic and Optic Gaming for the EU and NA division respectively. The full format and the way it works is explained in more detail at HLTV. You can check out their post here.
