As the first runner-up in both phases of the PMJL Season 1, Scarz will hope to turn their fortunes around this time. They will face a stiff challenge from Phase 2 winner BC Swell and a seasoned squad like Sengoku Gaming, as both sides have also shown great performances.
Apart from their homegrown teams, Korean teams like Warriors Esports, Team Square, and DS Gaming will also be strong contenders since they have shown consistency in their regional competitions.
As the event will be short, there will be no time for mistakes or comebacks. It will be imperative that teams show their talent right from the start.
The PUBG Mobile Global Championship 2021 (PMGC 2021) will begin on 30 November. The tournament features a massive prize pool of six million USD. A total of 40 teams from around the world will battle in the PMGC 2021 League Stage.
