Season 4 2019: Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Akros Summer Series 2019

General info

Tournament Information:
LPL are proud to announce an end of year tournament for all LPL CSGO users with a $2,000 prize pool. As this tournament will be a standalone tournament to celebrate the end of years, this tournament will NOT affect current placements, placements will be on hold until further notice in 2020.

With the introduction of a new Anti-Cheat named Akros.ac, we hope to introduce a more stable, reliable and consistent Anti-Cheat for all users to enjoy, and for a better and fairer competitive environment going into the end of the year, and ultimately, into 2020.

Entry Requirements:
All users must have an LPL Premium subscription and have Akros Anti-Cheat installed.

To purchase LPL Premium subscription, please go here.

Format:
The tournament is split into two stages: Qualifiers and Playoffs.

Qualifiers:
Every week for four weeks, teams will update their match times via their team settings and play matches assigned by the website, up to 3 matches per week. The top 4 teams at the end of the week four will proceed into the Playoffs stage.

Playoffs:
The top 4 teams from the Qualifiers stage will play a Single Elimination Bo3 bracket. Semi #1 played on Monday 2nd December 8PM AEDT Bo3 and Semi #2 played on Tuesday 3rd December 8PM AEDT Bo3. The grand finals will be played on Thursday 12th December at 8PM AEDT Bo3.
