Six LAN events to prepare invites as Valve releases July ranking update
ESL Pro League S22, BLAST Bounty S2, and StarLadder Budapest are among the tournaments that will send out invites based on the July ranking.
Valve has released the July update to its regional and global standings, the first after the conclusion of the BLAST.tv Austin Major.
Several notable LANs are set to use the July update to send out invites for their events, including ESL Pro League Season 22, BLAST Bounty Season 2, BLAST Open London, FISSURE Playground 2, CS Asia Championships, and StarLadder Budapest.
