Xtreme Gaming Qualify For The Esports World Cup Through ACL 2025 Victory
Ame and Xtreme Gaming emerged victorious at the Asian Champions League 2025 tournament. This short $150,000 event also acted as the Chinese qualifiers for the upcoming Esports World Cup 2025.
There were only four participants, which included Xtreme Gaming, Team Tidebound, Yakult Brothers, and Excel Esports. In a single-elimination format, Xtreme Gaming took on Team Tidebound in a Best of 5 Grand Final.
The Best of 5 series wasn’t too entertaining, as the series mostly consisted of both teams exchanging stomps. In the third map, Team Tidebound threw a 10,000 net worth lead which would come back to bite them, as Xtreme Gaming could close out the series after five maps.
Despite the tournament only lasting a day, Xtreme Gaming went home with $100,000 inside their pockets and a ticket to the Esports World Cup 2025, resulting in this updated lineup of teams:
The remaining slots for the event will be determined between a mix of EPT Leaderboard rankings and regional qualifiers.
