The Intel Extreme Masters Challenge in Dubai will feature sixteen top players in Quake Live and the first part of the tournament will be a group stage with four groups with four players in each. Those four players will face each other in best of three matches and the top two of each group will advance to single elimination playoffs, which will be played best of five.

From each of the four seed pools one player will be drawn randomnly into on of the four groups. The drawing will be shown on ESL TV on 11:00 CDT, 13 October 2009.

Update 2: The groups are settled. Jibo and Cooller have been switched so the Group A will only get 1 player from Mousesports.
