DreamHack has announced that G2.Kinguin will replace mousesports at this weekend's Open event, in London.
With just a few days to go before the start of DreamHack Open London, the Swedish company has been forced to find a last-minute replacement for mousesports, who have withdrawn from the tournament in order to step up their preparations for DH Open Stockholm, the qualifier for the Cluj major.
Filling in for the German giants will be the former Team Kinguin, who made headlines last week when they signed for G2. The European mixture will be hoping to build on their title-winning campaign at Gaming Paradise, where they beat the likes of Na`Vi and Titan.
