Impressions from Sao Paulo - One for the History Books

7000 fans created an amazing atmostphere in Ginasio do Iburapuera and everybody got what they came for... Almost:

World-Class Counter-Strike and a spectacle of a show, but no home team in the Grand Final.

Nevertheless - the impressions from BLAST Pro Series Sao Paulo will last for a long time - just like the colorful BLAST murial on a city wall in the pulsating metropol.

All pictures from Friday are uploaded to our MEDIA LIBRARY.
