The ALGS Year 5 Championship Pick ’Ems let you test how well you understand the Apex Legends Global Series by predicting match outcomes. You make your picks before and during the event, adding an interactive layer to how you follow each stage of the championship.
As you watch the tournament unfold, your selections update alongside live results, turning every match into a chance to measure your predictions against real outcomes. The system rewards informed choices, but it also leaves room for surprises that keep you engaged throughout the championship.
ALGS Year 5 Championship Pick'Ems
You can build your predictions through the Apex Legends Status Pick’Ems system, which brings back a familiar format many esports fans already know. You need an ALS account to save your choices, and the tool works best on desktop due to its drag-and-drop layout. On mobile, tapping a team places it into the next open slot.
The Pick’Ems follow the full tournament flow and lock before each stage begins. Once a phase starts, you can no longer adjust those selections, so timing matters.
| Phase | What you predict |
|---|---|
| Group Stage | Team placement and qualification results |
| Bracket Stage | Progression into Winners or Losers paths |
| Match Point Finals | Final standings and champion outcome |
You rank teams based on expected performance, qualification status, and leaderboard position. The system awards points according to how closely your predictions match real results, with stronger placements earning higher scores.
Alongside standard picks, you can also answer special challenge questions tied to each phase. These focus on in-game details rather than standings. Examples include weapon distance records or teams absorbing the most ring damage. These challenges offer fewer points but add variety to your entry.
You can track your standing on global leaderboards or compare results within a private group using invite links. This setup lets you measure your predictions against friends without public pressure.
The Pick’Ems do not include prizes and exist purely for engagement and competition. You participate for accuracy, bragging rights, and leaderboard placement.
The ALGS Year 5 Championship runs in Sapporo, Japan, from January 15 to January 18, 2026, and all Pick’Ems activity aligns with that live schedule.
