Belgian based gaming organisation
Gamevibes and Belgian gaming team
LowLandLions announce the qualifications for the Belgian
ESWC delegation.
The two games that will be played happen to be the two games that kicked off professional gaming for most people:
Counter-strike 1.6 and
Quake3. 24 teams and 32 players will have the chance to qualify for the prestigious LAN finals at the
Antwerp E-sports Festival on the 25th of July . The Antwerp eSports Festival, the setting for the Belgian qualifier, is the new 50,000 € tournament organized by Gamevibes in the Hilton in Antwerp.
The online qualifiers will be played on the 21st and 28th of June. The best four counter-strike 1.6 teams and the best four Quake3 players will then battle it out at the AEF in hopes of defending the Belgian colours in San Jose, California. This is where the ESWC grand finals will be played this year, a major change from previous years as the finals were always in France.
Registering for the qualifiers has never been easier. All you need is a Gamevibes ID which grants you access to the AEF and TEK9 website and ultimately ESWC glory! Head on down to

The ESWC, one of the most well-known brands in electronic sports and has an impressive track record. This year will be the 6th event and it will have 800 video game champions from all over the world competing for the title of world champion in their respective game. The finals will be held in three different locations in San Jose from the 25th until the 27th of August. Thousands of visitors will witness the thrill of seeing the best players in the world compete against each other. Organizing spectacular finals is one of the ESWC’s strong points and it will be no different this year.

About LowLandLions:
The LowLandLions is an organization of professional gaming athletes, which originates from the Benelux. Our goal is to nurture aspiring potential and grow the next generation of e-Sports athletes. Over the last couple of years the ‘Lowlands’ has spawned a great deal of talent. Unfortunately very few had the opportunity to develop into professional athletes due to insufficient support. The LowLandLions gives both new and established talent the chance to compete at the highest level under the wings of a well structured organization. Based on a select number of criteria, the LowLandLions will continuously scout and recruit young potential, and is therefore a representation of the best the Benelux has to offer. Our goal is to become an ambassador for e-Sports by striving for its main stream acceptance for the benefit of professional gamers and gamers alike around the world.
