The four teams set to take part in the UK finals of Acer’s Predator League EMEA Rocket League tournament have been locked in.
Well-known UK esports organisations Endpoint and Eko Esports are in the mix, as are two other rosters: I Am Finished and Bills Burgs.
The first national Predator League UK qualifier took place on October 9th 2022 and that saw Eko and I Am Finished reach the final. Eko won this, but both teams qualified for the UK final.
Then, the second UK Predator League qualifier concluded on October 22nd, with Endpoint and Bills Burgs reaching the final and the latter defeating Endpoint. Again, both teams qualified for reaching that qualifier final.
These four teams will now progress to the Predator League UK finals, which take place on November 13th. The winner of this UK final will go on to participate in the EMEA international final on November 20th, competing against the Rocket League champions from other countries. As usual, the action will be broadcast at twitch.tv/PredatorGaming.
Acer announced the Predator League 2022 EMEA Rocket League esports tournament last month. It features €90,000 in cash and hardware prizes and is allowing teams from around the world to get involved.
The news comes after Endpoint announced a revised Rocket League roster, including UK players Deevo and Crispy, as well as Lithuanian player Simas.
Eko’s Rocket League roster features UK players EclatMaccers and Ethxn, as well as Icelandic player EmilVald.
The other teams that have qualified include all-English players: Cal, Rehzzy and Cynical (I Am Finished) and Billy, Toxiic and Chippy (Bills Burgs).
