Cloud9 invited to the Arctic Invitational

North American team Cloud9 has been invited to the Arctic Invitational, a €100,000 ($115,000) CS:GO tournament on Finland. They replace NRG after that team chose to skip the event because of scheduling issues. This makes them the third invited team, with the fourth and final team to be determined by the Finnish qualifier. 

Cloud9's new roster which had its debut at BLAST Pro Series Los Angeles will be attending this LAN. Losing that tournament in the semi-finals to Team Liquid, the roster shows a lot of promise. 

They join CR4ZY and FURIA Esports at the invitational which takes place on September 14 at the Hartwall Arena, Helsinki. The tournament structure consists of a single-elimination, best-of-three bracket, with first place receiving €60,000 ($66,700).
