HellRaisers and TYLOO are the second pair to be announced for the tournament. Prior to them, Virtus.pro and BIG confirmed their participation. Two more pairs are expected to be announced in the coming days. The first on 1 October and the second on 8 October. A total of eight teams will participate for a piece of the $150,000 prize pool. The tournament will begin on 29 November and conclude on 2 December. It will be hosted in the InterContinental and organized by Quickfire and StarLadder.
The format of the tournament will utilize the double-elimination group system. The eight teams will be split into two groups of four and the top two teams from each group will advance towards the Playoffs, which in turn, will be single-elimination. All matches during the event will be best-of-three.
