Group A

Group B

Teams to watch:

Even though these teams are the best in their region, there is a huge strength difference on paper, comparing both groups. Group A participants, IGZIST, FENNEL, REJECT, and BLUE BEES are all full of talented players but on the other side of the competition, there is experience as some teams have been competing since the beginning.

Crazy Raccoon, Sengoku Gaming, NORTHEPTION, and ZETA DIVISION are four of the biggest esports organisations in the region. Moreover, some teams made changes regarding lineups and their rosters look strong on paper which means the entertainment level will be so high for the fans. The competition of Group B will be interesting for sure.

Schedule:

February 26

IGZIST vs FENNEL | 2:00 pm JST
REJECT vs CNCI BLUE BEES | 4:30 pm JST
