In less than ten hours, Arbalet Cup Asia 2010 will kick off in Almaty – What can we expect?

First of all, the first round will kick off at 12:00 local (07:00CET) and not at 10:00 local as first announced. The three rounds will start with one hour in between, meaning matches are scheduled to start 12, 13 and 14:00 local time (minus five hours for CET time).

The first day will as mentioned feature the group stage and the All-Star tournament, which consist of four teams, playing in a single-elimination bracket.

Last team Almaty hosted an Arbalet Cup, we saw great upsets. PinCho Wings managed to eliminate Virtus.pro, and KerchNET faced k23 in a two-set best-of-three Grand Final, which had all the excitement one could pray for.

The two-day tournament will feature the best Asia can gather and you will be able to follow it all right here on HLTV.org, as we are the only English-speaking news site at the event in Almaty, Kazakhstan.

Who do you think will make it to the playoffs?
