FACEIT presents The International 2017 Open and Champion Qualifiers

As The International 2017 edges ever closer, the journey towards it kicks off with Open and Champion Qualifiers.

The Open Qualifiers

Starting on June 22nd and running through to June 25th, the Open Qualifiers will see players and teams from Europe, CIS, South East Asia, North America and South America fight it out. The qualifiers will run in each region from June 22nd – which will be the first Open Qualifier, while the second will begin on June 24th. Each regional qualifier will have 1024 spots available.

For solo players, they will be able to join the tournament as soon as the check-in phases open, whilst teams that did not sign up on time will be allowed to register thirty minutes before the tournament begins – if slots are available. Teams will be able to register a maximum of 5 players and no substitutes will be allowed.
