Adrenaline Cyber League 2017 announced

The Adrenaline Cyber League 2017 is a four-team invitational LAN event that will be held in Moscow on June 18th, with $100,000 up for grabs.

The bracket and full schedule haven't been announced yet, but the first match is scheduled to start at 09:00 on June 18, with the rest of the competition following shortly after.
