PvPro and ELC Gaming have joined forces for a new tournament called the Legend Series, with the first edition featuring a €6,000 (~$6,350) prize pool and a live match in Hamburg.

Running from March 22 to April 1, the Legend Series will see 12 teams, eight of whom invited by the tournament's organisers, face off for the first prize of €2,000.
