The Team Liquid Tournament
The famed esports organization Team Liquid is hosting a major scale tournament! Now in collaboration with the Critical Ops League (COL), we’ll be hosting a 5v5 tournament, with 16 teams from Europe and North America. The tournament consists of 8 teams per region, 4 invited and 4 qualified from ESL.
format
The first series of matches, the Quarterfinals, will be played in a Best-of-1 format. This means that each team plays one match against their opponent, and whoever wins, moves on to the Semi-finals. The Semi-finals will be played in a Best-of-3 format. Each team has the chance to play three matches and the first team to win two matches moves on to the Regional Finals. These are also played in a Best-of-3 format. After the Regional Finals, we’re applying what we call a cross-regional Grand Final. The finalist teams from both regions battle each other to take it all! With a prize pool of $ 500 USD and 300,000 in-game credits, there’s definitely something worth fighting for!
