With the end of the LEC Winter Finals, the five teams that have been confirmed to participate in the Global Pioneer Tournament have been confirmed, namely TES in the LPL region, HLE in the LCK region, TL in the LTA region, KC in the LEC region, and CFO in the LCP region, and the competition will start in Seoul, South Korea on March 10 (16 o'clock Beijing time on March 10)! This is also the first international event of the year, and the winning team of the World Pioneer will earn a spot in the 2025 Mid-Season Championship for their own region, and will advance directly to the Winners' Group! This is the first tournament, and the whole event will be held in LOL Park in Seoul, South Korea, where the LCK usually plays, and HLE will have the right time and home advantage, and they will undoubtedly become the biggest opponent of TES!

Among the participating teams in this event, there are many old acquaintances of everyone, not to mention HLE here, Viper, Zeka, and Peanut have all played in the LPL region, and they are also old opponents in the LPL in recent years! TL Damu and CoreJJ are also old acquaintances, and they are also old acquaintances in the World Championships, and their two combinations have become frequent visitors to the World Championships in the North American region! Canna on KC's side is the top laner of the former T1 team! And on the CFO side, Doggo and Junjia used to be players in the LPL region!

Judging from the current state of the team, TES won the winner in the LPL with one wear five, coupled with the strength of the players, there is still a good chance in this pioneer tournament, and TES has broken through in some niche international competitions in the past, the former mid-season cup MSC champion, Saudi Arabia's oil cup champion!

To put it simply, the format of the Pioneer is divided into two stages, one is the BO3 single round robin, where the five teams will play each other once, and the team with the bottom points is out! The second stage is the BO5 single-elimination tournament, where the first place will be against the fourth, and the second place will be against the third, and finally the two teams will compete for the title of the World Pioneer in the final on March 16. And this competition is based on the dreadnought recruitment system, which is still more exciting! Anyway, I hope TES can play steadily in international competitions, play the performance that it has in the LPL, and strive to break through HLE, come on!
