$5,000 WardiTV Winter Championship 2023

The WardiTV 2023 series is already in full swing, with multiple open cups and invitationals already wrapped up for our Winter Season. Now it's time to announce our plans for the $5,000 WardiTV Winter Championship 2023. This is the third time the Winter Championship will be part of our annual series of events and it is boasting its largest prize pool to date!

Solar has won the last two, but perhaps this time Winter will belong to another?
