The ESL Clash of Nations will kick off on Friday, with eight teams locking horns for $10,000 in prize money.

Held at IFEMA as part of the Madrid Gaming Experience, the ESL Clash of Nations will feature the ESL champions of Spain, France, Germany, Poland, the UK and Southeast Europe, who will duke it out for the grand prize of $5,000.

KPI and Giants, who currently share the podium in ESL Masters with defending champion Movistar Riders, round out the list of participants for the tournament, which will begin with a best-of-one Swiss stage featuring five rounds. The top four teams will then advance to the single-elimination, best-of-three playoffs.

Kinguin will attend their first LAN with Kap3r

Due to Gfinity Elite Series commitments, Endpoint will attend the event as a mix team led by Epsilon backup player Owen "⁠smooya⁠" Butterfield.
