We’re getting closer to end of the 2019 AWC Summer Season, which means the open registration opportunities to qualify to the Summer Finals and Global Finals at BlizzCon are nearly over.
In North America, Cloud9, formally known as Super Frogs, have been dominant all year, earning the title of 2019 Spring Champions and sitting at the top of the region with 360 AWC points. Their BlizzCon Qualification is more than solidified. Just behind them, The Boys have already locked up their Summer Qualifications and their BlizzCon qualification as the top point earner of North America. This leaves teams like M2KC, Method Orange, The Move, and Resurgent competing for the last two Summer Finals qualification spots, as well as BlizzCon qualification at LAN.
Meanwhile in Europe, Method Black continues to overcome all competition, accumulating a big 460 AWC Points, followed by Diabolus with only 260 AWC points. Change My Mind, Zizon, Wildcard Gaming, and nLite are all between 240-192 AWC Points. The last two cups of the season will decide the trajectory for the rest of the year.
The top 8 teams in both regions have already been decided in NA & EU for Summer Cup #5. If you’re interested in catching some of the Open Bracket games, make sure to following GCDTV on twitch. GCDTV is an organization we’re partnering with to administrate and broadcast all these Arena Tournaments, they will be broadcasting the early rounds every Wednesday.
