Champions League down to eight

The Global Offensive Champions League has completed its group stage after almost a month of matches being played.

With the group stage of the Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Champions League now over, only eight teams are left standing from the four groups that were played out over the past month. Now these eight teams will have their chance at a slice of the $30,000 prize pool as they enter the league's direct elimination bracket. Only the top four placing teams will get anything at all, so the pressure is on to survive into the semifinals.
