BLAST Bounty Hunt will take place from June 9-13 with a prize pool of $145,000 USD and adjustments in the prize distribution. The name of the prize is a hint. Each team starts with an initial bounty and will receive a bounty in each participating match. “The winning team with an undefeated record can walk away with $51,120 plus the bounties earned, teams can win up to $96,000” explained the tournament organizers.

Also, home viewers can vote daily bounty. These can be challenges for teams, similar to Midas Mode in the past. One lucky person will be named for the daily bounty. More details on bounty voting mechanism will be announced before the tournament starts.

An attractive feature of BLAST Bounty Hunt is the ability for fans at home to also win prizes by participating in Fan Prediction. The program will have a total of $5,000 prize money for those who guess the winning team in each match, the amount of bounty collected and some other interesting surprises during the tournament.

The six strongest teams in Europe have confirmed their participation in the tournament in June and will share the seeds, participating in the BO3 double-elimination round with the final being BO5. Seeding is important in the bounty issue, as the 1st and 2nd seed teams will start with $20,000 and 40% bounty can be obtained for each contest. The remaining teams will start at $15,000. $45,000 of extra Bounty will be earned along the way.

Teams participating in BLAST Bounty Hunt:

• OG
• Team Secret
