North duo René "cajunb" Borg and Philip "aizy" Aistrup have been announced as the final team for the HTC 2v2 Invitational. The North pair become the second Danish team confirmed for the tournament, following in the footsteps of Heroic's Jakob "JUGi" Hansen and Nikolaj "niko" Kristensen, who were announced as participants at the weekend. Taking place this weekend inside PGL's studio, in Romania, the HTC 2v2 Invitational will see eight duos go head-to-head for the lion's share of a $50,000 prize pool.
The competition will feature a double-elimination format in both the group stage and the playoffs, with the map pool consisting of two retake maps plus one rifle map. The complete list of participants for the tournament looks as follows:
