CCT Season 3 European Series #19 will be an online competition in Europe that starts on March 22 and ends on April 3. It’s a part of the CCT Europe series and we will see 24 teams going up against each other.
For the CCT Season 3 European Series #19, 16 teams will play in a Swiss System. All matches will be in Bo3 and the top 8 CS2 teams will advance to the playoffs. The latter will be in a single-elimination bracket with Bo3 matches.
