ESL UK Premiership with £10,500+

The third ESL UK Premiership is set to begin on March 14th, featuring a £10,500 prize pool.

The first ESL UK Premiership took place last year with XENEX going on to win the tournament and claiming the £2,500 prize for first place. The second season saw UESmash crowned after they beat Infused in a best-of-five final.

The battle will kick off with three open qualifiers, which will take place from March 14th to the 28th, as the teams will try to acquire the most points throughout all the tournaments. The four teams with the most points at the end will advance to ESL UK Premiership Promotions.
