The draw for the group stage of the V4 Future Sports Festival has been made, with the eight competing teams having been split into two groups.

The participating teams were split into two seeding pots based on whether they were invited or had to qualify for the event. 

MOUZ, who won the StarSeries i-League Season 4 last night, have been drawn against Polish duo Virtus.pro and VenatoreS, and David "⁠frozen⁠" Čerňanský's eXtatus. FaZe, the current No.1 team in the world, face a relatively easier task, having been paired with HellRaisers, GameAgents and Dark Tigers.
