We have reached the end of January of 2023, and before we get into the real hype of PMPL Spring - let's finish off the remaining PMNCs. In this post, I'll take you through PMNC Turkiye 2022.
(Editors Note: There were 5 regional PMNCs that happened last weekend💀)
For an overview of the PMNC TR format, the event had no open registrations as it stood up to the 'invite-only' rule for 2022 PMNC. 24 teams from PMPL TR Fall 2022, ESL Snapdragon Pro Series (PMCO) Spring and Fall as well as Yükselen Yıldızlar Turnuvasi (Rising Stars Tournament) Seasons 1 and 2 were invited to the League Stage that was held on Dec 23rd - 25th, 2022 (before the PMGC Grand Finals) and 15 matches were played to decide 16 teams to advance to the Finals.
For the PMNC Finals, it was originally to be held as an offline LAN event at the Başakşehir District Directorate in Istanbul on Jan 24th - 25th, 2023. However, due to technical issues in the supposed Day 1 matches; the matches were postponed to Jan 25th and the original Day 2 matches were held online on Jan 28th. A total of 12 matches were played.
