Elisa has officially announced the Elisa Invitational Winter 2023 on their website. Scheduled to take place from January 10th to March 11th, the event boasts a $25,000 prize pool.
Four teams from two open qualifiers will secure spots in the challenger stage, competing against 12 invited teams for eight group stage slots. The group stage will feature playoffs, with teams battling for a prize and a place in an undisclosed LAN tournament.
The Elisa Invitational Winter 2023 champion will receive $12,500 from the prize pool and a spot in the Elisa Masters tournament. Further details will be announced later.
The previous Elisa Masters championship, Elisa Masters Espoo 2022, offered a $100,000 prize pool and a Play-In stage slot at IEM Katowice 2023, which team “fnatic” won.
