First round matches - In the first round of the tournament, Na'Vi will face M5 while Darer has to play CLG. The Ukrainians' history against M5 in 2012 is as expected: Both teams met three times: In the Star Series main round, in a Showmatch and in the Premier League. All encounters have been won by Na'Vi. This amplifies the outsider position of team Moscow Five.

For Darer and CLG, the match history is not that predictable. Although Darer has shown a great performance in 2012, climbing up the rankings, CLG was a tough enemy for the Russian team. CLG and Darer faced in the It's Gosu Monthly Madness, the Star Series and in the joinDOTA Masters tournament. For all three matches, CLG was the winning team. On Thursday, Darer can show if the nemesis ends.
