The event will feature a mix of invited North American and European teams in addition to two qualified teams through EMEA open qualifiers and Turkish closed qualifiers.
The "Home Ground" series features a unique format in which each team picks a "home" map. If a team wins both initial maps, the team will immediately win the series; if not, the series will continue on as a normal Bo5.
