DreamHack have revealed the talent lineup for their Bucharest stop, which mostly features usual names but also a newcomer in Chad "SPUNJ" Burchill. DreamHack ZOWIE Open Bucharest taking place from September 16-18 will feature the likes of Virtus.pro, FaZe and Cloud9. The $100,000 event will be covered on DreamHack's stream by an eight-man talent lineup, including familiar faces such as Anders Blume, although without his usual duo partner Auguste "Semmler" Massonnat, on the commentator's post. Alex "Machine" Richardson will be hosting the desk, where we'll also see Janko "YNk" Paunović and Renegades' former player Chad "SPUNJ" Burchill, who previously acted as a temporary commentator and analyst at events such as ESL One Katowice 2015.
