Founded by one of Qatar’s top eSports athletes, Ahmed Al Meghessib, this tournament brings a unique take on competitive e-football. Al Meghessib–who represents the Qatar National eSports team – designed the game to foster teamwork and elevate the competitive spirit. Teams battle it out to score 2 consecutive goals to win in 11v11 Kick Off Mode. The 2v2 players format in 11v11 mode changes the whole game dynamics as well as encourages the players to compete alongside their favorite teammates using strategy, communication, and skills. This lets teams focus on how well they can coordinate with their teammate to score the two goals.
