40 teams battle it out in a best-of-three single elimination bracket.

The participants for the next Malta Vibes Knockout Series were announced today, with 32 teams participating in stage one, the top eight of which will advance to face the eight teams directly seeded into stage two. The event, which uses a single elimination best-of-three format, will take place November 29-December 9 and features a $50,000 prize pool.

Much like previous Malta Vibes Knockout Series events the team list features a range of names from across the world, from academy squads to veterans of the scene.

Copenhagen Flames grace the event as the highest ranked team

A few standout names featuring in stage one include an Enterprise squad fresh off an impressive run at V4 Future Sports Festival, Turkish super team Eternal Fire, and the MOUZ NXT side that recently won their second WePlay Academy League title.

Joining the event in round two are names such as recent Major attendees and world #11 Copenhagen Flames, Swedish veterans Dignitas, and a MAD Lions roster coming off the back of a 3rd place finish at DreamHack Open November.
