eUnited replace 5POWER at MSI MGA; schedule and matchups revealed

The second placed team in the North American qualifiers have been handed a last minute invite.

Dust2.us can reveal that eUnited will be replacing Chinese team 5POWER for the upcoming MSI MGA secondary tournament at ESL One New York. The cause for the switch is due to the Chinese players of the Asian side participating in the WESG 2018 China qualifier.

eUnited were the second placed team in the North America qualifier for MSI MGA, where they fell 2-1 to compLexity in the final. This will be eUnited's first LAN event after their 7th-8th finish at the invite-only DreamHack Open Montreal, which took place during the New Challengers Stage of the FACEIT London Major. The two events should serve as a good warmup for the young team, as they look forward to IEM Chicago.

This leaves the teamlist for the MSI MGA Finals as:

AVANGAR compLexity
United States eUnited Movistar Riders

We have also been provided the schedule for MSI MGA, which will be a best-of-one double elimination format throughout the entire competition. The schedule for MSI MGA, with times in EDT, is as follows:

Saturday, September 29th
11:00 AM compLexity vs Movistar Riders BO1
12:10 PM AVANGAR vs United States eUnited BO1
1:20 PM Upper Bracket Final BO1
2:30 PM Lower Bracket Round 1 BO1
3:40 PM Lower Bracket Final BO1
 
Sunday, September 30th
11:00 AM Grand Final BO1

The MSI MGA Finals are set to take place during ESL One New York on September 29th-30th, with the Grand Final taking place before the ESL One New York Grand Final.

This is actually an interesting tournament, Avangar is on the up, it'll be nice to see what mixwell can do with his spanish squad, and it's always fun to see NA teams play against international opponents.
