Out of the 16 teams that will make it to the competition, nine teams have already qualified, including the APAC teams Nora-Rengo (Japan) and FNATIC (Australia) thanks to their Pro League Season 8 performances. Other teams from the region still have a chance to advance to the Six Invitational to occupy the single remaining APAC slot by participating in the APAC online qualifiers.
Each of the four APAC sub-regions will have their own online open qualifier. Firstly, participating teams will battle it out in a double elimination bracket with all matches being played in a best-of-1 format. Then, the closed qualifier will bring together the top teams, which will take part in a double elimination bracket, played in a best-of-3 format. The single best team from each of the four sub-regions will then fly out to the ESL Studios in Sydney, Australia, to determine who who we will see alongside Nora-Rengo and FNATIC in Montreal! The schedule of the Six Invitational APAC Online Qualifier looks as follows:
Open Qualifier, Day 1 - Saturday, December 8th
