Jakarta will host the International e-Sports Federation’s 8th e-Sports World Championship. 21 teams have been confirmed for the $20,000 competition.

The tournament will be held from October 6 to 9th in the Indonesian city. There is one team for each country - not only Counter-Strike, which is replacing Starcraft 2, but also League of Legends and Hearthstone. The nation with most titles will take home the e-Sports World Champion title.

Counter-Strike’s group stage format will be round-robin format, whilst playoffs consist of a best-of-three single elimination bracket. The most known teams include the likes of TyLoo and ENCE, with them being considered favourites, but there’s other teams competing – Athletico, 5FRAGS, MVP project and iNation are some of them.
