The ESL has been running group stage action for the ESL Pro League's 19th season all throughout the past week. The group stage is split into four groups of eight teams, where each group sees four teams advancing to the playoffs in the future, and last week both Groups A and B held their action. This means that we know eight teams that are already confirmed for the playoffs.
From Group A, Astralis, 3DMAX, FaZe Clan, and Virtus.pro all made it through, whereas for Group B, Team Vitality, The MongolZ, BetBoom Team, and G2 Esports survived the gauntlet.
As we need to wait for Groups C and D to conclude before the playoff bracket takes shape, we can't yet inform you about matchups, but we'll know more in seven days, as the group stage will be completed by the end of this week.
