Farmskins Championship with $25,000

Running from May 21 to June 6, the first edition of the Farmskins Championship will see ten teams duke it out for $25,000 and two spots in the European qualifiers for WCA 2017.

Nine teams will be determined through invites, with the final spot going to the winner for a qualifying system that kicks off this weekend.
