The final leg of the Overwatch World Cup qualifiers is finally set to get underway this weekend as Groups G and H face off in Los Angeles, California.
Group G is going to be a contest led by the United States and the very underrated Brazil team. Coming into the tournament, the United States hovers between second and fourth on the list of tournament favorites alongside China and Sweden.
In Group H, there is no clear favorite among the group. The highest seed will be the United Kingdom, however, with challengers like Germany and Belgium in the group as well it would be easy to see this group head into a tie-breaker. Meanwhile, Israel is a bit of an unknown quantity as we enter the tournament and could come in looking far more impressive than the other teams in their group expect.
The matches will kick off on Friday, August 11 and run through Sunday, August 13.
