The North American closed qualifier for DreamHack Masters Malmö will be played out today, as we'll get to see 16 teams battling it out for three spots at the Swedish event.

Initially eight teams have been invited for the closed qualifier, arguably eight of the best playing in the North American region, including Cloud9, Liquid, CLG, Renegades and more.

Those will be joined by eight coming from the open qualifier, which saw teams such as TSM, Echo Fox and NRG advance. Interestingly, neither of compLexity and Winterfox registered for the qualifier, the latter seemingly due a conflict in their schedule.
