VAINGLORY NA AND EU WINTER CHAMPIONSHIPS IN MARCH!
The time for Vainglory Winter Championships is here. Expect the month of March to be filled with Vainglory esports! The Winter Season will end with a bang at two live events: Santa Monica (March 11-13) and London (March 18-20). Each event will feature three days of awesome matches between the top eight teams of each region. During both three-day events, these teams will compete for a total prize pool of 25,000USD (per event) and the Winter Season Championship title. North American and European participating teams are seeded by two VGL Qualifiers during the Winter Season. More than 700 competitive teams applied for the first Qualifier in January with the Top 64 teams in each region entering the tournament bracket. Which team will take the Winter Championship crown?
