PRO LEAGUE GOES GLOBAL UPON SEASON 3 FINALS IN SAO PAULO

The Sao Paulo Finals in Brazil will bring together four different regions for the first time, on November 18-19: Asia-Pacific, Europe, Latin America and North America. These eight teams are competing for a total Season 3 prize pool of $275,000, bringing the total prize pool across all official Year 2 tournaments to $1,250,000. An ideal warm-up before the main event, the Six Invitational (February 16–18 2018, in Montreal), that will determine the world’s best players for a prize pool of $500,000.

The competition is ferocious this season, with eight teams competing for the Season 3 champion title:

  • PENTA SPORTS: winners of the two last Pro League seasons for Year 2, the German-based team is a favorite and aims at the grand slam.
  • ENCE: consistently qualified for the Pro League finals, the Finnish roster hasn’t won a Pro League LAN match since Year 1, Season 1 Finals, and will be committed to prove that they are as good offline as they are online.
  • EVIL GENIUSES: this storied esports brand just acquired the Continuum roster. Winner of the 2017 Six Invitational back in February, the team led by Canadian continued to impress during the Pro League play-offs.
  • 1NFAMY: after winning the relegations last season, 1nFamy pulled out a surprising but well-deserved qualification to the Season 3 Finals. They can rest on their new players’ previous experiences at this level of the competition.
  • TEAM FONTT: a very solid Brazilian roster that reached the Pro League semi-finals last season, gohaN and his teammates will want to shine in Sao Paulo in front of their fans.
  • BLACK DRAGONS: the second Brazilian team of these finals will also count on the effervescence of the Brazilian crowd. They are the last team to take a round against PENTA in the Finals, in Season 1.
  • MANTIS FPS: best South Korean team for this first ever Asia-Pacific season, they will discover the highest Pro League level for these Finals.
  • EINS: Winner of the Pro League play-offs in Asia-Pacific last month in Sydney, the Japanese team will be a serious contender.

Will PENTA Sports be able to win the Finals in front of the passionate Brazilian fans who will support the two home teams: Team Fontt and Black Dragons? Will Evil Geniuses’s name transcend the ex-Continuum roster to reach the title like the Season three of the Year one?”

Tune-in on the stream on the 18th & 19th of November to get the answer.
