Super Evil Megacorp, creators of Vainglory, have revealed the competing teams for the Vainglory Unified Spring Championships.
The top six teams in Europe and the top six teams from North America are now confirmed after the Vainglory8 Challenge Battle on May 6th.
The Spring Championships take place this weekend from May 19th to the 21st at the O2 Arena in London.
