The GOAT League Summer Vacation event is the second off-season tournament organized by esports betting site 1xBet. The previous event, which was won by Team Lobanjica, had multiple audience interaction moments, including mid-game challenges for cash prizes and map selections.
This year’s iteration of the event includes a larger prize pool, a bigger line up of teams and an entirely new format. The competition will make use of the Active Duty map pool in addition to fan picks from the reserve group Train and Dust2. It is important to note that all maps will be mirrored during the event.
The 1xBet GOAT League Summer Vacation event will split the eight teams into two round-robin groups of four, and the only top three teams will proceed to the event’s playoffs stage.
The top squad from each group will advance straight to the semi-finals, while the teams that placed third and fourth will face off against each other in the first playoff round. The matches in the first phase will be conducted in a best-of-one format before advancing to the knockout stage, where teams will compete in best of threes.
