Titan have qualified for DreamHack Cluj-Napoca from day four at DreamHack Open Stockholm. The Asian representatives from Skyred on the other hand have exited the competition after two straight losses.
The fourth day at DreamHack Open Stockholm saw the opening battle of the only Asian representative at the LAN qualifier in quite an uphill battle against Titan, who have recently brought back Adil "ScreaM" Benrlitom in Mathieu "Maniac" Quiquerez's stead.
The newcomer himself turned in quite a display in his debut with his new-old team, and while Titan did fulfill expectations and beat the Vietnamese on two straight maps (de_dust2 16-7, de_inferno 16-8), Skyred showed some promise with inventive ideas and individual play.

Next to match up against each other were Vexed and HellRaisers, another team who have undergone a lineup change, bringing in Oleksandr "s1mple" Kostyliev after Mihail "Dosia" Stolyarov decided to leave the squad.
Same as with Titan, even this time the newest addition turned up in the best form out of his team, with big help from Dauren "AdreN" Kystaubayev. After a reasonably close de_cbble (16-11), HellRaisers crushed their opposition on their Terrorist-side of de_dust2 14-1 and closed it out at 16-7.

The winners then fought for the spot at the major, and it was de_overpass to start it all off. s1mple turned up with a beastly performance, racking up a 34-13 score (2.09 rating) to help his team take the advantage at 16-8.
de_dust2 wasn't quite the same from the Ukrainian, while he did have numerous multi-kills during the game, Titan proved to be able to deal with him and took map two 16-13.
The map to decided all was de_cbble, but there HellRaisers had little chances after only taking two rounds as Terrorists, and the French-Belgian squad ultimately took the Cluj-Napoca spot early on at 16-7.

As in the previous three days, the elimination match took place last and it was between the Vietnamese and the Poles to see who goes on in the competition.
The fight for survival started out on de_cache and it went all the way down to the wire, with stand-in Cong "crazyguy" Anh Ngo turning heads thanks to unconventionally agressive multi-kills. In the end it wasn't enough though, as Vexed took a stand towards the end for 16-14.
While nobody really stood out as much from the Polish side on map one, map two was led by Karol "rallen" Rodowicz, who helped his team come back from a 1-8 deficit as Terrorists to make it a 16-12 victory at the conclusion.
