PTG Database Analysis
Gfinity 3 was a 12-team Counter-Strike: Global Offensive event held August 2–3, 2014 at Copper Box Arena in London, United Kingdom. Gfinity organized the tournament. Its USD 45,000 prize pool paid USD 20,000 to champion Virtus.pro, USD 10,000 to runner-up Titan, USD 5,000 each to fnatic and Team Dignitas, and USD 1,250 each to the teams placing fifth through eighth. The winner also secured an ESWC 2014 place.[1][2][4]
The format used two six-team round-robin groups. The top four from each group entered a single-elimination best-of-three playoff bracket. HLTV’s coverage confirms the event dates, prize distribution and participant results; Gfinity’s interim report independently identifies Copper Box Arena as the venue.[3][4][5]
