All other Season 10 teams have received invitations to Mountain Dew League, where they can win direct slots to the ESL Pro League Season 12. They will also be able to qualify through the ESL World Ranking. More information about the Season 12 and future seasons provided in the coming weeks.
Also, in order to ensure that the new composition of the league is fair and fierce, but open to the wider CS:GO ecosystem, the ESL World Ranking plays a key role in determining team invites to the league starting next season and onwards!
the format
We’re doing away with regions to provide the ultimate global battleground. The 24 teams will be split into four groups of six teams featuring a round-robin best of three formats. Group winners will play for a direct slot to the semi finals and Round 3 respectively. Second and third-placed teams are seeded into a single-elimination bracket and will meet the group winners along the way. All matches starting in the Round 3 will be played in an arena location where the season champion is crowned in a best of five grand final.

Faqs
Seeding for the groups of ESL Pro League is done based on the ESL World Ranking and independent of partner status.
The partner teams get a number of slots in ESL Pro Tour events if they are ranked top 20 in the world. A 16 team event for example has 6 slots for partner teams.
