Six of the eight teams attending DreamHack Bucharest will receive direct invites, and the first three invitees have been announced: Virtus.pro, Team EnVyUs and FaZe Clan.

The six invites are based on team results and rankings, while the other two teams will make it in from the European qualifiers. The open qualifier takes place on Aug. 20, where the top eight teams will subsequently compete against eight invited teams in the closed qualifier on Aug. 21.

The event takes place Sept. 16-18, where the teams will compete for a $100,000 prize pool.
