s7 Professional Division Overview - $75,000.00 USD + $42,000.00 USD in travel support

CEVO-P is our most prestigious division and consists of only the very best teams from North America and Europe. Teams earn invites to this division through their performance in the off-season Professional Placement Tournament and past performance in Season 6. The CEVO-P teams will play in a round-robin group play format over the course of the 8 week regular season. Following the regular season, the top 3 teams (per region) + 2 directly invited teams will qualify to compete for our largest cash prize pool ever on LAN at the MLG.tv Arena on July 24-26, 2015.

In addition to the 6 teams that will qualify for the LAN finals through their regular season performance, we're also pleased to announce that both fnatic, most recent Valve CS:GO Major winner, and Team EnVyUs, the MLG X Games Aspen CS:GO Invitational winner, have both been invited directly to the LAN Finals. Beginning in Season 8, the 1st and 2nd place finishers in the previous CEVO season will be invited directly to the following season's LAN Finals.
