PUBG Mobile esports India in 2020 has many huge changes to make it more refined

PUBG Mobile Esports India - The PUBG Mobile Open Club India 2020

In 2019, the PUBG Mobile Open Club (PMCO) is the biggest international PUBG Mobile tournament in the world. But into 2020, it is only served as a round of qualifiers for the PUBG Mobile World League.

The PMCO in 2020 is no longer a premier league and just a qualifiers stage for the PMWL

The PMCO India allows all PUBG Mobile teams to register no matter if they are pro teams or not, giving talented teams who want to make a name for themselves a chance to go big. Teams will have to go through an Online Qualifiers first and defeat thousands of other teams to be one of the 32 teams in the Group Stage. The top 24 teams in the Group Stage will then move on to the Semi-Finals. Finally, 16 top teams from the Semi-finals will get to the Finals.

After the Finals, the top 9 PUBG Mobile esports India teams will be qualified for the PUBG Mobile Pro League that will happen a few weeks later.

PUBG Mobile Pro League South Asia

The top 9 PUBG Mobile teams in India who have made it through the PMCO India will be joining with 6 other teams from the South Asia region to compete in the PUBG Mobile Pro League (PMPL) South Asia for the right to go to the PUBG Mobile World League (PMWL). The top 5 PUBG Mobile teams in the South Asia region from the last season will be directly invited to the PMPL South Asia without having to go through any qualifier.

The slot distribution for the PMPL South Asia

The PMPL South Asia has a total of 20 PUBG Mobile teams, which will be divided into 5 groups of 4 teams with 1 seed in each group. After the PMPL South Asia ends, the top 5 PUBG Mobile teams here will be qualified for the PMWL and the next season PMPL South Asia.

PUBG Mobile World League

The PMWL is where the best PUBG Mobile teams from different regions in the world gather to compete with each other for the right to go to the ultimate battle in the PUBG Mobile World Championship. It features 2 different divisions, Eastern and Western with 16 teams each. Teams from the PMPL South Asia will go to the World League East.

The PMWL starts in May and October.

The PMWL features the best teams from all regions around the world with 2 divisions East and West

World League East

The World League East division consists of teams from PMPL Thailand, PMPL Indonesia, PMPL Vietnam, PMPL MYSG, PMPL SEA, PMPL South Asia, PMPL Chinese Taipei, PMCO Wildcard, Street Challenge, Japan Championship, and PMCO Pakistan. While there has been no official information yet, it is likely that the top 8 PUBG Mobile teams from each division will go to the PUBG Mobile World Championship (PMWC).

PUBG Mobile World championship

This will be the final test for all PUBG Mobile teams around the world. While in 2019, each region all has at least 1 team in the Final, in 2020, this is not guaranteed because of the PMWL. That means there is a chance Indian teams might not be able to make it to the PMWC.

The PUBG Mobile World Championship will be the final battle for the best 16 teams from all around the world

A total of 16 top teams from the PMWL will compete in the PMWC.
