Coming back from the DreamHack Winter 2008, SK Sweden will have to play their next matches right away tonight. After losing the first match to ATS.dk the team is now in need of some points to keep up the chances for the offline finals next year. Again SK is facing Giants which could take revenge but also the Finns of HaHa will be going up against SK today.

last time they tried to make a league out of each country. That didn't all that well in all cases. but it was interesting. Allot of smaller teams got the chance. But most of the leagues was pretty predictable.
