The teams are the victors of each of their region's qualifying rounds, with past and future champions among them. 60 players will converge in Poland, but only five will walk away with the title of champion. Last year's winning team Natus Vincere is of course present once again, and they will look to defend their crown from a cadre of tenacious and able opponents.
"This year's finalists are the most talented and skilled ones from around the globe," said Mo Fadl, Global eSports Director. "They've helped forged the scene in 2014 and raised the bar for professional eSports to a never before seen height within the Wargaming.net League. I couldn't predict at all who would come out as the world champion, but one thing is clear, every single one of these players have definitely earned a rightful place in the League's official website."

Make no mistake, even digital war is a marathon that is to be endured.
