The stage is set for the 2025 EMEA Masters Summer Main Event, starting on September 29 and ending at Paris Games Week in France on November 2nd, as the Swiss Stage draw has officially concluded. This year’s competition will feature 32 teams representing every corner of the EMEA region. Twenty-eight automatic qualifiers from the major European Regional Leagues (ERLs), joined by the four fierce squads that emerged victorious from the Last Chance Qualifier: Vitality.Bee, Forsaken, Veni Vidi Vici, and UOL Sexy Edition.

Each team is matched against an opponent for Round 1 using seeding and region protection rules, aimed at avoiding early rematches of national teams and maintaining competitive balance. All matches in this round are played in a best-of-one format, with subsequent rounds pairing winning teams against other winners and losers against fellow teams seeking redemption.
