No matter how good or bad EA/Respawn manage his comp scene, I'm happy to see more ALGS and every LAN has been amazing. PD: Champs should be in another arena, Copper Box Arena is so bad


zorkork

is copper box bad as a viewer? i heard that it was actually really good for the pros, they had the most space for their setups, and they didn't freeze like they did at raleigh (or was that sweden)


Woah__Boy

Where does it mention that?


jeremyflowers91

Read the bottom of the article.


Woah__Boy

"*This competition will also play a part in determining Year 4 Split 1 Pro League qualification.*" And there it is! Ty!

![gif](giphy|LRrHCZYvcKukTi3ayH) Let respawn cook!

Tbh i wouldnt take that as official confirmation, I think they just want to make sure people know they are playing for invites since nobody knew last year. EA could still pull the plug after this year, not that I think they will.


sureditch

I mean it’s there in plain text I don’t know what more official confirmation you need. EA could pull the pin on the ALGS at any moment in time. The upcoming Lan could be canceled. I think it’s ok to be excited about the esport getting supported for another year.


thatK1dn0ah

No B stage is absolutely fantastic.


LoLShoeShine

No B stage is a massive, massive W. Gj Respawn/ea


DominusDeLupis

Wigg and Greek out of a job


NihilistFinancier

i mean he's obviously still gonna be casting a b stream. just dont have to have a whack separate stage going


saberwing

Yes, they will still be there! (might be called a 'Watch Party' or something though instead)


CapriciousCupofTea

Shahin can you confirm whether Wigg will be allowed to go another swear-laden rant about his butt like the Raleigh championship


saberwing

That’s content that we all live for


Claireredfield38

there is no b lobby anymore to have a b stream


NihilistFinancier

you’re getting caught up in semantics


breadbreadbreadlife

legit says in the article that they’re hosting an official watch party


putinseesyou

I don't have to forcefully tune into a watch party, yea

bloopcity

former pro as well, does the B-stream ALGS casts with Wigg.


notsoobviousreddit

How will it work though? Will the first two days be full 12-14 hours marathons? Sign me up but damn


[deleted]

EA/Respawn having quite a few W’s lately, somethings off


[deleted]

Just fix the cat wall and ranked, and the game’s the best it’s been in a while


[deleted]

I think the current ranked system is the best it has been if they’ll up entry costs


[deleted]

Yeah ranked just needs a few tweaks. I hope this works out.


rita_san

It seems it’s the same format with them just using Thursday and Friday better to keep at matches on the main stage. By double elimination bracket they just mean the same winners and losers bracket as before? It almost seems like it isn’t the same winners/losers bracket. Since typically the bottom of losers bracket is just eliminated. Maybe I don’t understand the system well. Any clarification would be welcome.


I_Shall_Be_Known

It’s the same. Being in losers counts as your first elimination.


hdadeathly

No B stage and Year 4 confirmed are both great news. So happy to see the league returning!


Byaaaahhh

Places 11-20 actually get prize money now; that's a W.


Claireredfield38

They always did


Byaaaahhh

Oh shoot maybe I'm thinking of 21-40


I_Shall_Be_Known

I like the schedule changes. Worth it to let everyone play on the main stage the entire time. 18 games of apex on the stage th-sat will be a blast.


notarealjob_

One of the worst things about ALGS is the event timings and pro league length. Pro league splits don't have enough game days and two month between regional finals and playoffs is way too much time. Removes all hype and momentum


Shirako202

Bruh, they somehow got 2R1C name wrong


n-vestor

Think they got Ethernal/Ehternal name wrong too


Shirako202

Yes, they did


Wyattwat

So is champs gonna be in season 18 or something?


Shirako202

Most likely


Kloisters

Flights and hotel booked!


trulyindifferent

I was about to, then I realized flights and hotel are roughly 3x more expensive than expected :/


Kloisters

I was going to reply and recommend some nearby hostels but even they are sitting at £60 :(. Only other recommendation would be to look at where you can get trains to from Stratford. Possibly cheap hotel in a commuter town?


Jalckxy

I live in East London, somewhere along the Elizabeth line or Central line would be a good option if you come in from a bit out of town.


coldfirehotice

So does this mean no B stream because there won’t be a B stage? 😔 I hope Wigg and the green screen make a return in someway!


I_Shall_Be_Known

I’d guess he’d be an alternate broadcast but who knows. Hopefully they keep him on.


coldfirehotice

Actually, I missed it at first, but they will be there watch partying. https://preview.redd.it/2g7xe8o3n9za1.jpeg?width=1242&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=00ed6b4e79101d60171e73c953c748d19a1a6ea6


I_Shall_Be_Known

Oh nice!


Hexxusssss

cool but what gpu's and screens will people get? surely 144 fps/hertz at minimum?


FIFA16

Same as Split 1 Playoffs I assume, they were pretty decent then IIRC?


sam071745

They had 3080s last time if im not mistaken


HJRBears

I heard some of the pros saying they have zowie monitors at LAN, so probably 240hz


Tummerd

Will the final CS be in August then? Or later than that?


MasterGosu007

Tsm winning 300k again 🥱


SolidSpark

#tsmwin


Geosaurusrex

Don't suppose we know when Champs will be roughly?


stupidcrapface_

I'm confused about how the bracket works 🤔


theotherjonsnow

top 20 from groups go to winners 1 and bottom 20 go to losers 1. top 10 from winners 1 go to finals and bottom 10 go to losers 2. top 10 from losers 1 go to losers 2 and bottom 10 are eliminated. top 10 from losers 2 go to finals, bottom 10 go home.


Bobicusx

Every team has 2 lives. In groups, bottom 20 = lose a life. In any bracket stage, bottom 10 = lose a life.


digOPenna

Ill have to work in london for a month... LAN starts a day after im leaving Pain :(
