FACEIT will be hosting everything from open qualifiers, minors and the major itself. “By hosting each stage of the tournament at Twickenham Stadium we’re hoping to bring new life to the Minors,” said Michele Attisani, Co-Founder and Chief Business Officer of FACEIT.
Top two teams from four regional minors would be invited to the FACEIT Minor Closed Qualifiers. These eight teams would compete with eight other invited teams for one of the eight slots at the FACEIT Major Challenger Stage and $50,000 USD. The open qualifiers for the FACEIT Regional Minors would be held between May 14 and June 17 on FACEIT’s matchmaking platform.
