Alienware and TopGaming.eu have joined forces to host a tournament with three online splits with $27,000 offer and LAN finals in Prague.

The first split will be focused on Central and Eastern Europe, with PACT, Izako Boars and GUNRUNNERS headlining the six-team invite list for the tournament.

The final two teams will be determined by online qualifiers open to players from across Europe, the first of which kicking off later on Wednesday.

At the end of each split, the bottom two sides will be eliminated from the tournament and will have to fight their way back via the qualifiers, while the teams ranked fifth and sixth will play a relegation stage with the losing finalists of the online qualifiers.

After the three splits have been played out, the four teams who racked up the most points over the course of the season will earn spots at the offline finals, which will be held as part of the ForGames fair, in Prague, next year, where they will compete for a separate prize pool, which remains undisclosed
