Eight teams will battle it out this Thursday for the right to call themselves the 2016 DreamHack Valencia Heroes of the Storm champions. In addition to the prestigious title, the winner will also claim the lions share of a $100,000 prize pl and secure its place in the Fall Championship later this year. As the Fall Championship boasts an enormous $1,000,000 prize pl, it goes without saying that each team competing at DreamHack will be going for broke to assure its chances at such a large purse.With such a high-stakes tournament underway, DreamHack made sure to invite the two reigning European champions, mYinsanity and Team Dignitas, to compete in the event. To fill out the other six slots, three qualifiers tk place, with the top two teams in each qualifier earning a coveted spot at the tournament. While some of these teams will be familiar faces, a number of them are making their debut on the big stage.DreamHack Valencia will be divided into two stages. The first stage consists of group play, which splits the eight teams evenly into Group A and Group B. Within those groups, each team will face each other once, and the two teams with the best records will advance to the playoffs. Tiebreakers will be held if necessary. In the playoff portion, the final four teams will face each other head-to-head in a single elimination bracket. Lets take a lk at the groups.Group A consists of mYinsanity, ePunks, Team Liquid, and Virtus.pro. While mYinsanity are the clear favorites to make it out of this group, upsets are a dime a dozen in the professional HotS scene and any of these teams could not only topple it from the top seed, but also knock it out of the tournament early.Group B is comprised of Team Dignitas, Team Crowing Cocks, Fnatic, and teh89. Of this group, Dignitas is certainly the favorite, with Crowing Cocks coming in a distant second. That being said, Fnatic gave Crowing Cocks a run for its money, barely losing 2-1 during the DreamHack Qualifier #1, so this group is far from decided.Heres a closer lk at the eight teams competing at DreamHack Valencia.Crowing CocksRoster: Maksym Mopsio Szczypa (Tank); Kenn Zaelia ?ster Rasmussen (Carry); Evgeniy Lunarn Evdokimov (Support); Lachezar cilium Nikolaev Kochev (Flex); Vladislavs Sphyxi Trofimovs (Flex).Path to DH: Defeated Fnatic 2-1 in the DreamHack Valencia Qualifier #1.Previous finishes: 1st, ZOTAC Heroes of the Storm Monthly Final #14; 2nd, Go4Heroes Europe Cup #77; 3rd, ZOTAC Heroes of the Storm Cup #47.Key points: While this team is just one month old, it has already proven itself in tournament settings against some of the better, more established teams, such as Team Liquid and Fnatic.

That being said, all eyes will be on its newest addition, AlexTheProG, as he is supposed to be the last piece it needs to claim the top European slot from mYinsanity.mYinsanityRoster: Dennis HasuObs Schneider (Flex); Nils Nurok Gebhardt (Flex); Simon Darkmok Tabin (Assassin); Lyubomir Splendour Kozlovski (Support); Markus Blumbi Hanke (Warrior).Path to DH: Invited to tournament due to exceptional past results.Previous finishes: 1st, DreamHack All-Stars - Tours 2016; 2nd, 2016 ESL Heroes of the Storm Championship - Leicester; 7th, 2016 Heroes of the Storm Spring Global Championship; 2nd, 2016 ESL Heroes of the Storm Championship - Katowice.Key points: HasuObs actually started his professional gaming career in StarCraft 2, where he played Protoss in an often innovative fashion. Hell likely take that same type of innovative -- and risky -- behavior onto the Nexus when making hero picks.Vapormax Grigie e Rosse .ca lk back at each of the Top 10 stories of 2013.
