London Conspiracy and dAT Team are the first two teams to have qualified for ESL One Cologne.

The first day of the ESL One Cologne European Finals has come to an end, with two teams having already secured qualification for the event in Germany, which will take place on August 14-17 under the wings of GamesCom.

Fresh off adding veteran Preben "⁠prb⁠" Gammelsæter to their ranks, London Conspiracy turned up the heat and gave a great account of themselves as they moved past k1ck and Natus Vincere to book a place at ESL One Cologne.
