WIN.gg has partnered with FACEIT once again for the third season of its WINNERS League.
The league will see Counter-Strike: Global Offensive teams from across Europe and North America compete for a total prize purse of $50,000 (£41,055.50).
The competition is made up of three divisions to create accessibility for players of all levels, from up-and-coming players looking to work their way up the ladder to seasoned veterans wanting to make a statement.
The league’s invite division has a $15,000 (£12,317.02) prize pool, with the team that comes out of invitational play victorious receiving $7,000 (£5,747.94). The main division has a $6,100 (£5,009.23) prize pool, with the winning team earning $2,500 (£2,052.96). The starter division has a total prize pool of $4,800 (£3,941.69), with the top placing team taking home $2,000 (£31,642.37).
Nick Gorbunov, Project Lead at Winners League commented: “We’re happy to be able to contribute to players’ development and to shine a spotlight on new and upcoming talents. As the league grows, these teams will only get more opportunities for greater exposure.
“We are proud of the competition that happens on our circuit. Players have told us that they’re hungry for quality competition, and we’re excited to be able to bring that to them both now and in the future.”
Season 3 will begin on October 1st and will be played over the course of 10 weeks. The first seven weeks will feature a group stage format, with teams battling each other as they aim to make it to the playoffs.
Signups for the WINNERS League begin in early September. Registration information is available on league.win.gg and administrative support is available through the official WINNERS League discord.
