FORMAT OVERVIEW
Running from December 9-11, 2022, Red Bull Home Ground will be coming to the city of Manchester (UK) at Victoria Warehouse to debut a unique ‘Home and Away’ format. In this format, both teams will pick a ‘home ground’ to play on for the opening two maps, rewarding map knowledge and tactical awareness. If a team wins both the opening ‘home’ and ‘away’ matches, they automatically win the tie, while a stalemate will default the tie to a traditional best of five format.
North American teams are set to make their Red Bull Home Ground debut for this third iteration of the competition, facing some of the best that EMEA has to offer. Will they be sent home packing, or will they perform under the pressure and lift the trophy?
The tournament will feature eight teams, with the slots being allocated as listed below:
EMEA Slot #1
EMEA Slot #2
EMEA Slot #3
EMEA Slot #4
NA Slot #1
NA Slot #2
Open EU Qualifier Slot
Closed Turkey Qualifier Slot
