$60,000 MSI Masters Gaming Arena set to return to ESL One New York
ESL and MSI have returned once again with their $60,000 tournament that is set to take place during ESL One New York 2019.
The format appears to be unchanged from last year, and will be featuring one team each from North America, Europe, CIS, and Asia. Last year's iteration of the tournament saw CIS team AVANGAR win the event after taking down Movistar Riders, eUnited, and compLexity.
The North American region will have three open qualifiers which are set to run throughout July. If the region's format follows that of the other three, a total of eight teams will advanced to a closed qualifier.
- Qualifier 1 (July 13th)
- Qualifier 2 (July 20th)
- Qualifier 3 (July 27th)
eUnited, one of last year's North American representatives, guaranteed themselves a spot in ESL One New York last night, so they are unlikely to return to the smaller stage this year.
