PGL Minor viewer's guide

We put together all information needed for the upcoming PGL Minor Championship, taking place from January 29-31 at PGL's brand new studio in Bucharest, into the following viewer's guide. Groups, system, schedule, casters, prize distribution, you'll find all of the above right here.

The European Minor kicks off tomorrow, on January 29th, and will run until January 31st, which is when we'll learn another name who will advance to the MLG Columbus offline qualifier.

Eight teams have advanced through four qualifiers, with two teams coming out of each one, and were distributed into the following couple of groups:

Group A	Group B
CG	Lemondogs
E-frag.net	DenDD
LDLC White	PixelFire
PENTA Sports	HellRaisers

Initial rounds and elimination matches will be played in best-of-one's, while winners' matches and the deciding match are set to be played in best-of-three's. A full day is reserved for each of the groups.

From there two teams will advance to a best-of-three, single-elimination bracket, which will be played out on the last day of competition.
