eSports Festival have revealed they will be hosting a four-team tournament at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition centre on August 21st, which will give out 180,000 HKD (~$24,000) across qualifiers and the main event.

TYLOO will be amongst the participants of the ESF 2016 playoffs as the only directly invited side. They will be joined by two teams coming from two rounds of qualifiers open to all Asian teams, and one coming from a Hong Kong qualifier.

The Asian qualifier will start off with an open stage, played in a single-elimination, best-of-one format, for which teams can still register here. Top two sides will then join five invited teams and the winner of a ~$2,500 Taiwan offline qualifier in the closed stage.

Teams invited to the closed qualifier are following:

VG.CyberZen	Signature
EDG	MVP Project
The MongolZ	Taiwan offline qualifier
Asian open qualifier	Asian open qualifier

From July 26th to August 13th teams from Hong Kong will fight in their own single-elimination, best-of-one qualifier, which will give out one spot for the main event and a total of 35,000 HKD (~$4,500).

The ESF 2016 playoffs, played on August 21st, will have 150,000 HKD on offer (~$19,500), with a lion's share of 100,000 HKD (~$13,000) going to the champion. The slot distribution looks as follows:

TYLOO	Hong Kong qualifier
Asian closed qualifier	Asian closed qualifier

West Asian Qualifier for West Asian countries only then the winner Qualifies for the tournament instead of playing on 400 ping for the South-east Asian teams.

Even if you are on Asian continent, you are different region CSGO since we do not play same, SEA play with East Asia, tournament only for this range. Make your own tournament =)

2016-07-24 05:57

then they have to consider saying "a tournament for SEA" , not a tournament for Asia since they abandon more than half of the continent right away

2016-07-24 08:48

It's not for SEA, it's for East Asia too, which is not part of SEA. It's not even hosted in SEA.

wtf to reverse 1 out of 4 slots for your relatively unknown region? except risky?

2016-07-24 12:42

why not to add the slot without deleting any other ones and btw : you only know risky because the biggest chance given to the region was for 1 team , and risky got that one, you'll notice more talents if a bigger chance was given
