📝 OWWC Dates Confirmed

Blizzard has announced the dates for the upcoming EMEA Conference Cup, as well as the Online Qualifiers for EMEA, Asia and the Americas, the group stage in South Korea, and the finals at BlizzCon.

EMEA Qualifier dates incorrect in graphic. 30-31st May and 6-7th June are the correct dates.

With the Asia and America conference cups completed, only EMEA remains, and their Conference Cup will take place on April 17-19th.

The Conference Cups determine which of the so-called “Wildcard teams” will advance to the official Online Qualifiers, where they will compete against the invited teams from each region to determine who qualifies for the Group Stage in Korea.

The Wildcard teams that have qualified so far are Chile, Puerto Rico and Argentina in AMER, and the Philippines, Pakistan and India in ASIA.

The online qualifiers will take place on May 29-31st for Asia, while the EMEA and America online qualifiers will be split over two weekends, with both regions playing on May 30-31st and June 6-7th.

The qualified teams will then play in the Group Stage in South Korea, which will take place on August 21-23rd.

Finally, the top 8 teams will face off at Blizzcon from September 12-14th to decide who takes home the coveted trophy.
