EACC Spring 2023

The EA Champions Cup Spring 2023 is taking place in Shanghai from 07 to 09 April in a new format and will be broadcasted across China, Korea, Thailand, and Vietnam. The tournament will feature the top 8 teams competing over three days of intense competition for a total US$100,000 prize pool.

About the competition

The EA Chmapions Cup Spring 2023 comes with a new format this year. Two teams from each participating country – China, Korea, Thailand, and Vietnam – each consisting of three to four players, will battle it out in a two-sided double-elimination styled bracket. During this double-elimination bracket, each matchup will be played in a Best-of-5 format, meaning that teams must win at least three games out of the maximum five games played to advance.

Unlike previous seasons, this season’s Best-of-5 format will no longer include a “winner stays”-rule for the selection of the representing athletes. Instead, both teams in the matchup will nominate a different individual athlete for each of the first three games. For the optionally required game four and five, the athletes from games one, two, and three can be re-nominated. As a result, a single athlete can only compete in a maximum of two games during a single matchup between two EA SPORTS™ FIFA Online 4 teams, putting a greater focus on the performance and tactics of the entire team.
