I wanted to send a reminder that Daybreak’s Elite Series is kicking off at DreamHack Atlanta this weekend with two exhilarating H1Z1: King of the Kill tournaments – one for five-player teams and one for solo players – with a combined prize pool of $250,000.
These tournaments mark the first stop in the Elite Series, H1Z1’s global esports circuit, and the largest esports event at DreamHack Atlanta in terms of both participants and prizing.
Two tournaments will be broadcast live from the show floor:
- ● Teams:
- Twenty-four (24) teams of five will compete in the qualifiers, including premier organizations like Echo Fox, Team Kaliber, Panda Gaming, Noble, Epsilon, and SoaR Gaming.
- The top seven teams from the qualifiers will join top finishers from Fight for the Crown (Counter Logic Gaming, Obey Alliance, Denial Esports, World Best Gaming, and Luminosity Gaming) in the finals to compete for their share of $150,000.
- ● Solos:
- A pure free-for-all for individuals, beginning with 120 rivals in solo qualifiers battling it out for their spot in the finals.
- The 40 best-performing players will join the 20 pre-selected individuals in the solo tournament finals to fight for their share of $100,000.
- Participants hail from more than 13 countries, including the United States, Canada, China, Denmark, France, Belgium, Sweden, Korea, Japan, Turkey, Brazil, Norway, and Australia.
