The first round of the contest occurred from May 2 to 5 this month. These teams took part in three matches each. They violated the competitive rules of the India Series to gain an advantage over their opponents. The overall points table of the initial round was not disclosed by Krafton.

Recently, Krafton banned eight teams from the India Series, who were using third-party software during their matches in the first round. The firm had also banned four squads during the Grind, a qualifier tournament for the BGIS 2024.

The second round kicked off on Thursday featuring many renowned clubs like Team XSpark, Carnival Gaming, Medal, 8Bit, and others. 32 out of the 512 participating teams have reached this stage through the Grind Event. Each will have six matches to display their strength and make it to the third round. This round is expected to be more competitive as compared to the previous phase. A few matches will also be live-streamed on the Krafton India Esports' YouTube channel.
