dignitas are the first European team to have secured a spot at the CEVO Gfinity Season 9 Finals after beating FlipSid3 Tactics 2-1 (16-8 on Mirage, 13-16 on Overpass and 16-8 on Inferno)
While in North America the CEVO Season is already in its second 16-team bracket, in Europe the first bracket tournament came to an end only last night, with dignitas claiming bragging rights - certainly a timely boost ahead of DreamHack Masters Malmö.
The Danish team, who are looking to make amends after a series of mixed results, reached the grand final without dropping a single map, moving past fm-eSports, DenDD and HellRaisers in convincing fashion.

From the other half of the bracket came FlipSid3 Tactics, who were equally as impressive as they also posted 2-0 victories over Preparaton, ENCE and SK Gaming to advance to the grand final unscathed.
Despite a phenomenal display from Georgi "WorldEdit" Yaskin, who had the highest number of kills in the entire series, the Ukrainian team were simply outclassed as their 16-13 win on Overpass was sandwiched by dignitas' 16-8 wins on Mirage and Inferno.
