ASTRO Battles 2021-2022 Announcement – ASTRO Gaming Blog

[ad_1]

Welcome back to the arena, COGs. You’ve been tearing each other apart with your Gnashers for two years now and we’re excited to announce that ASTRO Battles is returning in partnership with PlayBeyond.com for another yearly season of competition in 2021-2022!

New Event Formats

ASTRO Battles will return new and improved for the 2021-2022 season. We’re shaking up the format this time around by introducing free-to-enter Ladder play to each quarterly split. This will allow players to grind out Gnasher matches on their own schedule, climb the ranks, and qualify for the high-stakes bracket tournaments at the end of each season. Additionally, each season will end with a traditional open bracket Major tournament, seeded based on that season’s ladder and playoff results.

Ready to build some new rivalries? Starting in the Winter season, ASTRO Battles will be adding 1v1 into the rotation so you can settle those disputes personally. More details coming soon! 

Here’s what you can expect from each new split of ASTRO Battles:

  • Open Ladder Play (1-2 month duration)
  • Invite-Only Playoffs (Top 8 Ladder teams qualify)
  • Open Major Tournament (128 team open bracket)

New Cash & Prizes

This year’s ASTRO Battles league will have a grand total of $60,000 in cash prizing up for grabs. The Fall Season will feature $20,000+ in cash and prizes across the two finale tournaments, each featuring Top 8 payouts in high-stakes Single Elimination brackets. 

Fall Season Schedule

  • Ladder Start: September 24th
  • Ladder End: October 31st
  • Ladder Playoffs: November 6
  • Open Major: December 18
