Victory Zigzag and TheMongolz to miss BLAST Premier Fall Showdown 2023

Tournament operator BLAST has announced changes in the team list for the upcoming BLAST Premier Fall Showdown 2023 Europe and Americas. Victory Zigzag and TheMongolz will not be able to participate in the events, having encountered various difficulties.

It was reported that Victory Zigzag will not take part in the tournament for Europe because of ESIC recommendation. The European roster got into several scandals after qualifying for the competition, which caused roster changes. However, now the team has been removed from the team list for BLAST Premier Fall Showdown 2023 Europe. The rosterʼs place will go to Alliance, which placed second in the qualifier Pelaajat Nordic Masters Fall 2023.

In turn, TheMongolz encountered difficulties in obtaining visas they needed to participate in the American tournament, which is why Party Astronauts replaced the Mongolian team. The North American squad received an invite by securing second place at Ace North American Masters Fall 2023 qualifier.

Yesterday, September 28, BLAST Premier Fall Showdown 2023 organizers announced that both events will be played in CS:GO. However, the next tournament of the series, BLAST Premier Fall Final 2023, will play out in a new version of the shooter.

BLAST Premier Fall Showdown 2023 Europe and Americas will play out from October 4 to 8 online in a Single Elimination BO3 format. One team from each of these regions will advance to the BLAST fall season final.
