Groups for MLG X Games Aspen running from January 23-25 have just been drawn on MLG's eSports Report stream.

Only minutes ago MLG drew the groups for the $50,000 MLG X-Games Aspen tournament, which features four teams fom Europe, joined by Brazilian KaBuM and three North American teams.

We will see the former teams from iBUYPOWER and mouseSpaz fighting an uphill battle, as two world's best teams LDLC and fnatic have been drawn to them in the clearly harder group B.

Group A on the other hand will see NiP alongside dignitas and Cloud9, both of which they have a good record against, while the last spot is filled by KaBuM, featuring Brazil's star Gabriel "⁠FalleN⁠" Toledo.

The groups will be played in a round-robin format with two teams advancing to the single elimination best-of-three playoffs. The exact schedule for the tournament will be released tomorrow.
