There will be three European groups and one North American group, meaning that the European and North American divisions will have their own respective champions this season. Here’s everything you need to know, so you don’t miss a second of Counter-Strike’s finest locking horns.

Format

Europe

A round-robin, best-of-three format will be used in Group A, B and D respectively. Each of the group’s winners will qualify for a second group stage, while the runners-up and third-placed teams in each group will go head-to-head to decide the remaining three slots.

Six teams will make up the second group stage (Winner’s Group Stage) and will operate in the same manner as the first group stage. The winner of the group will earn their spot in the best-of-five Grand Final, while second and third-placed teams play a best-of-three decider.

North America

Across the pond in Group C, the format is similar, however, four teams will advance to the playoffs, which will use a double-elimination bracket.

Here, the first and second-placed teams will go head-to-head in the Winner’s Final, while third and fourth will battle in the Loser’s Final — where the winner of this matchup will face the loser of the Winner’s Final to earn their spot in the Grand Final.
