BLAST Premier Fall Final returns to Royal Arena

The venue in Copenhagen will once again play host to a BLAST event.

BLAST have announced that the Fall Final, set to take place November 22-26, will once again be held in the Royal Arena in Copenhagen, with tickets due to go on sale June 16.

The Royal Arena has played host to multiple BLAST events down the years, the most recent of which being last year’s Fall Final where HEROIC reigned supreme.

Eight teams will contest the BLAST Premier Fall Final, six qualifying via the Fall Groups and two more coming from the BLAST Fall Showdown.

There are a multitude of top-tier sides lined up to contest a Fall Final spot at the Fall Groups from July 13-23, Vitality, HEROIC, FaZe and G2 among them. Any teams who fail to grab one of the six Fall Final berths on offer will head to the BLAST Fall Showdown, where they will be joined by qualified teams in order to fight for one of the two remaining berths.

At the Fall Final itself, the squads will be split into two GSL-style, best-of-three groups, with the winners advancing to the semi-finals and the runners-up and third-place teams heading to the quarter-finals. The playoffs will be a single-elimination, best-of-three bracket. The winners of the competition will not only receive the lion's share of a $425,000 prize pool, but also a spot at the season-ending BLAST Premier World Final.
