Let's kick things off with some CS:GO Announcements! (scroll down for SC2)
COUNTER STRIKE
$10,000 - Online Quals + LAN Finals
We're excited to announce LAN Qualifiers for our $10,000 Winter Series event! Registrations are now live over on the ANZC Faceit server:
Last event we had a great amount of interest and team signups and we had the hard task at seeding and selecting only 8 teams for LAN. We hope that by introducing an online qualification round that this will help keep things as fair as possible.
Now, with the question around timing, flights, accom etc - we hear you. Let's first cover how it's all going to work and then how dates, times, costs and prize pool will work.
TL;DR:
Online quals: June 17/18 Register here
LAN: July 7/8/9
Online Open Quals
Open Quals will be hosted on June 17th - 18th. This will be a maximum 32 team open qual hosted on FACEIT. You will be required to have an ANZC subscription (once off) to compete. This is so we can utilise the FACEIT servers and anti-cheat systems to ensure a high level of competitve integrity for the qualification round. The only cost to enter the open quals is the ANZC subscription cost that you can immediately cancel after the online quals is completed.
The top 8 teams from the open quals will be given a slot to play at LAN on July 7th, 8th and 9th. Qualified teams will still be required to pay their team registation fee. Now, this is only a 3 week turn around and not ideal for some. Given the busy CS:GO schedule for the year this is the best we could do without having the previous system of just picking 8 teams or going back to first in best dressed. If the open qualification system is deemed to not be a success this time around we will revist the process for Summer LAN, scheduled for around Dec 1st 2023.
Rough online qual schedule:
June 17th - Day 1
10:00am AEST - day 1 checkin / stream goes live

Costs and Prize Money
With timing and flights + accom in mind we will be reducing the registration cost from $500 per team to $250 per team. The total prize pool is $10,000 AUD but we will be providing prize money for all 8 slots. 4th - 8th place will now receive $500 AUD.
- 1st $4,500
- 2nd $2,000
- 3rd $1,000
- 4th $500
- 5th $500
- 6th $500
- 7th $500
- 8th $500
We hope that with the limited timing and turn around that this will help reduce some costs overall for the teams that do qualify and want to compete at LAN.
All 8 qualified teams will be expected to attend all 3 days July 7 - 9.
Hotel Accom - we have worked with Quest Hotels in the past and will be offering discounted stays at Quest. If you would like to book hotel accom now or closer to the event please contact us directly via twitter or on our discord server. (we will have a link and discount code soon)
AusCraft / Starcraft 2
16 players -$2,500 prize pool
We're excited once again to have Starcraft 2 return to LAN for Brisvegas Winter 2023. SC2 will only be running for the 8th and 9th July (sat/sun). With another $2,500 AUD prize pool.
Last event we had 13 players register and we're keen to see that fill up to 16 this time around.
We will have 8 player PC's setup and available for the Saturday and Sunday event. The additional PC's will allow us to get through games a bit more smoothly and we've addressed some of the issues we faced last time and hope that we can deliver an even better tournament this time around.
