HERO ESPORTS Asian Champions League: 6 Spots For Esports World Cup Up For Grabs In Teamfight Tactics Tournament

(MENAFN- PR Newswire) The ACL Teamfight Tactics tournament is set to commence on April 15 and will conclude on May 18. The total prize pool for the tournament amounts to $150,000, with six teams earning direct entry to the Esports World Cup.

Unlike previous Teamfight Tactics events, the ACL Teamfight Tactics Tournament features a 4V4 team battle format. This emphasis on teamwork will offer the audience a fresh and engaging viewing experience.

The ACL Teamfight Tactics Tournament is structured into three stages: Regional Qualifiers, Asian Challenge, and ACL Grand Finals.

Registration for the tournament will open on March 23 and close on March 31. Teams must register in groups of four players. The Regional Qualifiers will be divided into APAC and CN regions. The eight highest-ranking teams from the APAC region and the seven highest-ranking teams from the CN region will qualify for the Regional Qualifiers. Team rankings are determined by the total points accumulated by the top three players in each team at the registration deadline. These points are calculated based on performance in the TFT Open, Tactician's Crown, and Regional Finals over the latest three seasons.

In the Regional Qualifiers, four teams from each region (APAC and CN region) will advance to the Asian Challenge through online competitions. The APAC Qualifier will take place from April 15 to 18, whereas the CN Qualifier is scheduled from April 24 to 27. Additionally, the top three teams from each region will secure spots in the Esports World Cup, while the fourth and fifth teams from each region will qualify for the Last Chance Qualifier of EWC.

In the Asian Challenge, which will take place from May 8 to 11, a total of eight teams from the Regional Qualifiers will compete for three spots in the Finals.

The ACL Grand Finals for Teamfight Tactics will take place in Shanghai on May 17 and 18. On May 17, a BO3 single-elimination match (the losers' final) will determine the third-place team and who advances to the championship match. On May 18, a BO5 single-elimination match will decide the runner-up and the ultimate champion.
