For the first time in history, fans will not witness Nova Esports playing in the upcoming PUBG Mobile Global Championship (PMGC). The Jimmy-led superstar squad could not deliver the performance required to enter the 2023 mega event. The China regional qualifiers for the 2023 season have recently concluded, and all four slots have now been confirmed.
Like the previous year, Tencent again allocated four spots for Chinese teams in the PUBG Mobile Global Championship, which will see 51 teams worldwide. The top three teams from the PEL Points have been selected for the Championship. Apart from that, the winning squad of the PMGC China Qualifier has also advanced there.
Titan Esports Club (TEC) achieved the highest points (200) after notching up the PEL 2023 Summer. Despite not performing well in the Spring edition, the club topped the PEL Points table and directly seized their spot in the PMGC Grand Finals. Weibo (120) and Tianba (120) were in the second and third places in the table and moved to the League Stage. STE from China gained a seat in the League after clinching the PEL PMGC Qualifier.
