For some teams, the Counter-Strike 2 season has ended and a small break awaits before teams rip back in ahead of the Shanghai Major in November. For others, however, the show continues: This time, it’s the Emirates to host an S-tier event with YaLLa Compass kicking off June 5.
Twelve teams head to Abu Dhabi to contest for the lion’s share of a whopping $400,000 USD prize pool, and apart from the regulars, a few challengers have emerged hoping to add a trophy to the cabinet. From Asia’s finest in The MongolZ to the lofty heights of Astralis and Complexity, squads from far and wide will be out in force as they play for a spot in the Space 42 Arena.
Here’s everything you need to know about YaLLa Compass 2024: Schedule, scores, teams, and more.
