The ESEA Invite Season 17 Global Finals will start in less than eight hours with the All-Stars match, take a look at the viewer's guide if you're wondering when your favourite teams play.

Eight teams were drawn into a double elimination best-of-three bracket as usual, with four coming from Europe and four from North America. Before that though, some of the stars from each team will be seen during the All-Stars match, which will kick off the action in Dallas, TX.

iBUYPOWER are the back-to-back reigning champions, as they came out on top of seasons 15 and 16, who will try to get a hold of a share of the $47,000 prizepool split between all eight teams as shown below.

1. $20,000
2. $6,000
3. $4,500
4. $4,000
5-6. $3,500
7-8. $3,000

Don't forget that the map pool is different to what we're used to from tournaments held in Europe, as we can see Season and Train on the list instead of Overpass and Cobblestone.

Veto system also isn't quite the same in comparison with other organizations' systems, ESEA uses the 1-2-1 veto process, which works as follows:

1. Away team removes one map
2. Home team removes two maps
3. Away team removes one map
4. Home team picks map one, away team picks the side
5. Away team picks map two, home team picks the side
6. Remaining map is map three, home team picks the side
