Six top players from three regions won their spots at the Brawlhalla Winter Championship. Two more competitors can join them at the Max Mode event.
After a short break, the main official tournaments of Brawlhalla esports are back. The competition returns with a blast! The fighting games event Max Mode features a new and unusual format of the Winter Royale Invitational. In addition to the primary event, which is a clash of the best Brawlhalla players in the world, we can witness the Last Chance Qualifier (LCQ).
Brawlhalla Winter Royale is a chance to get to know the strongest guys in the community. Such events include quite a few interviews and close-ups of the players’ reactions. It’s a nice refreshment after remote-only online tournaments, where we can’t see the competitors at all.
The LCQ participants are not just random people, sure. Sandstorm, Raydish, and Wess are here — the community certainly knows them well. However, quite a few other, less established pros are also here. The battle for two qualification spots is a wonderful show to witness, and the addition of two LCQ players should make the Brawlhalla Royale even more interesting!
