REPUBLEAGUE Season 2 playoff invites include Virtus.pro, CPH Flames, fnatic

The two Major attendees headline the list of teams invited to the playoffs.

After a month-long group stage and play-in, REPUBLEAGUE Season 2 has finally reached the playoffs, which sees the six teams from the groups face off against ten invited teams, the top four from Season 1 alongside six other invites.

Fiend, ECLOT, Entropiq, K23, Eternal Fire, and Dignitas all advanced from the play-in stage, while SKADE, SAW, FORZE, and SINNERS were invited due to placing in the top four of Season 1. The final playoff spots are filled by 00NATION, Copenhagen Flames, fnatic, FunPlus Phoenix, GODSENT, and Virtus.pro.

Virtus.pro come in as the favorite in the playoffs

The format for the playoffs will be a fully best of three single elimination bracket, with a third place decider. The matchups have already been decided, and games will begin in just under two weeks time, on November 10. For the likes of Entropiq, Copenhagen Flames, and Virtus.pro, the event will begin just after the conclusion of the PGL Stockholm Major.

REPUBLEAGUE Season 2 boasts a prize pool of €100,000, with the first place team earning themselves a hefty €60,000.
