Gfinity have announced Natus Vincere as the second invited team for CEVO Gfinity Season 9 Finals, taking place in London, United Kingdom from April 28 to May 1.

Natus Vincere have joined Virtus.pro, who were invited as reigning champions following their commanding win at CEVO-P Season 8 Finals over MOUZ.

In their announcement Gfinity mentioned Ladislav "⁠GuardiaN⁠" Kovács was set to take part in the Finals as well despite skipping DreamHack Masters Malmö, but no further information was given out by the Ukrainian organization about the Slovakian's improvement.

GuardiaN is expected to travel to London with Na`Vi

Two more teams already secured their place via qualifiers, one being OpTic who took down Liquid and Selfless on their way to victory in NA bracket #1, and the other Dignitas who defeated HellRaisers and FlipSid3 in the last two stages of EU bracket #1.

That makes the current team list of the $125,000 tournament following:

Virtus.pro

Natus Vincere

OpTic

Dignitas

Initially only Virtus.pro were supposed to be invited directly to the eight-team tournament, with four teams coming from North American qualifiers and three from European qualifiers. With Na`Vi invited as well it's not clear which of the qualifiers will be abandoned.
