It really would not be an eSports tournament if everything started on time. The first day of DreamHack Valencia has been plagued by several delays, with the first match due to start no sooner than 19:00 .

As soon as the first teams arrived at the tournament stage, issues began to surface: the computers had on board graphic cards, which the players complained about as they offer low performances when it comes to 3D applications.

It was expected that everything would be solved when the organisers installed graphic cards on the computers, but then x6tence and bemyfRAG complained that the monitors they were using were much worse than those assigned to NiP and 34united, which left them at a disadvantage.

Teams are still waiting to play their first matches

As a result, both Spanish teams unplugged their devices, which means that the order of the matches has been switched and NiP will face 34united in the next few minutes.

Then, x6tence should take on bemyfRAG, after which the remainder of Group A should be played out as initially scheduled.

*UPDATE* The massive delay continues in Valencia, as the Spanish teams have raised questions about the configs used by NiP's players. The admins are still discussing what to do, as they are not familiar with the commands used in CS:GO, and there is still no estimation about when the matches will kick off.

20:53 *UPDATE 2* All issues were finally resolved, matches are about to go live.
