Evil Geniuses To Travel To Europe For The BLAST Fall Series

North American CounterStrike: Global Offensive side, Evil Geniuses, will travel to Serbia next week in order to compete in the BLAST Premier Fall Series.

Evil Genuises' manager, Derrick "LILMAN" Boyne revealed on his Instagram story that the highly-ranked organisation will be making two trips to Europe, returning home from Serbia to compete in IEM Beijing, before jetting back off to the EU for the remainder of the season.

This comes as significant news as they will make the transition to compete in Europe alongside other dynamite teams, creating a clash of the titans akin to a World Championship. They will set up to play online for the BLAST Premier Fall Series, which is set to span from October 25 to November 4.

They will then fly back to North America to compete in IEM Bejing: North America, which kicks off on November 6, before heading to an unknown European destination to challenge the top sides in the world.

HLTV previously reported that the best teams in each region were looking to clash in a number of events before the end of the year, meaning Evil Geniuses could be the first of four teams to head to EU for an extended period. 

Team Liquid, 100 Thieves, and MIBR could also follow suit in the coming weeks, as they are the three highest-ranked teams in North America that are partnered with BLAST. 100 Thieves' trip could be hindered though, with the organisation dropping their roster that they had previously acquired from Renegades.

It has yet to be seen how Evil Geniuses will fit into BLAST Premier Fall Series as the eight teams competing have already been announced, meaning there will have to be a re-jig in terms of the formatting.
