The EGC Masters Fall is almost here!

Elite Gaming Channel is proud to present the latest edition of the EGC Masters Fall - Season 2. Featuring a $20,000 prize pool sponsored by World’s Edge! From August 22 to September 20, the world’s strongest players will compete in the first event of the new competitive season.

In keeping with the tradition set by the EGC Masters events, we will be using the same format as last year, with only minor changes to the size of the series. We are adding more best-of-3 matches to the main event, which should lead to plenty of surprises.

This standalone Masters event marks a major beginning in the EGC Masters – Season 2. No points, no circuit, just one competition for the title of the EGC Masters Fall Champion and a significant share of the $20,000 prize pool.

Event Concept

The top eight players in the Tournament Elo rating on August 15 will get a seat for the main event, starting on August 29.

The qualification stage will consist of two unique days, with a maximum of 128 players per day. Players will compete in a single-elimination bracket, with only four players qualifying each day. For the qualifiers, the map pool will consist of 8 maps.

Three additional maps will be added to the Main Event, including a brand new EGC map inspired by Age of Empires II, EGC – Golden Stream.

The qualifiers are happening on August 22-23.

The Main Event will consist of two stages, the first of which will be a GSL group stage style in four groups of 4 players. The final stage will be a double elimination playoff format.
