The groups have been set for Marvel Rivals Ignite Grand Finals, the culmination of Marvel Rivals’ first year of esports action.

The tournament brings together 12 teams from the Americas, EMEA, Asia, Oceania, and China to compete for Marvel Rivals’ biggest trophy thus far.

The event has a prize pool of $1,000,000, making it the largest prize pool for a Marvel Rivals event by some margin.

It doubles the prize pool of Marvel Rivals Mid Season Finals, which had a $500,000 prize pool.

It is the second international tournament for the centralised Marvel Rivals circuit, which is controlled by Chinese developer NetEase.

Marvel Rivals Ignite 2025 Grand Finals will take place at Dreamhack Atlanta, at the World Congress Center in Georgia.

Marvel Rivals Grand Finals Groups:

Group A:

• Virtus.pro
• ChopperMag
• Reject
• ENVY
• Aconyx
• DarkZero

Group B:

• 100 Thieves
• OUG
• Crazy Racoon
• Citadel Gaming
• FlyQuest
• NaVi

Virtus.pro, one of the favourites for the tournament and Stage 2 EMEA champions, will be confident of progressing against the lower seeds of China and the Americas, as well as Oceania’s representatives.

Group B promises to be a bloodbath, with some of the top talents present, including Americas’ number 1 seed and Stage 2 champions, 100 Thieves, and NaVi.

Rad EU won the Mid Season Finals, but the roster was soon left orgless prior to NaVi picking up the roster.

Asia and China’s number 1 seeds are also in the group, with Crazy Racoon and OUG present.
