Alpha X is so excited to announce its new circuit that will be replacing the Junior Championships: the EU Ascension League.
The aim of this tournament is still to support the rising stars and semi-pro players in order to offer a competitive environment for those who didn't yet reach the Top 16 of a DH.
Therefore, this circuit will be open to every EU resident who did never reach the playoffs of a DH EU Masters in 2020/2021 or 2021/2022. This rule excludes 27 players.
The Circuit
In 2022, we will have 2 to 3 $1,000 events. The first two are already funded, and we hope to find more money to host a third season this year.
Following the format of the 2021 NA Apprentice, hosted by Sugar, each Season will feature 16 players in Code S and 16 players in Code A, both with a standard GSL style format: Group Stage into single elimination Playoffs.
The players are invited depending on their results during the previous season: Top 8 in Code S are invited in Code S, Bottom 8 in Code A are not invited (8 slots are open through a qualifier) and the 16 remaining competitors are fighting in an Up & Down tournament in order to decide who will be promoted or remain in Code S, and who will be demoted or remain in Code A.

Season 1
The first season will take place really soon! For this season, the 32 slots, both in Code S and Code A, will be granted through 4 qualifiers.
The qualifiers dates and registration link will be announced shortly. If you're from EU and never made it to the Playoffs of a DH EU Masters, it's your time to shine!
