Формат квалификаций WePlay! Pushka League

As you know, we’ve introduced WePlay! Pushka League recently, with a bunch of pretty big teams taking part in our online tournament. OG, Team Secret, NAVI, Virtus.pro, Team Nigma, Gambit, Alliance, NiP, and others will compete in two groups divided by regions: Europe and CIS. The tournament will launch on April, 23rd and the prize pool is $250,000.

But the most important thing is that besides the twelve clubs announced, there will be a TBD slot for each region — for a team that will make it through the Qualifiers! Check this out.

Firstly, Open Qualifiers for all who want to take part. Make it through them and get into the next stage.
Then, Closed Qualifiers will be held on April, 20-23. OQ winners will join two CQs direct invites (Chicken Fighters + Vikin.gg in EU group or Cyber Legacy + VP.Prodigy in CIS group) to decide which team advances to Pushka League. 

So here comes another thing: as you’ve already guessed, all you need to do is register your team and do your best! Everyone, including you, has a chance to get into a high-level league, or, beg our pardon, a collegiate esports conference.
