Tournament results: EU, SA, and NA
You can track the full brackets and match history on the official esports pages, but the key outcomes in each region already shape the Winter Championship 2026 narrative. The road to top eight proved demanding, with long lower-bracket runs and decisive grand finals.
European circuit
Europe delivered one of the most competitive brackets of the season. Early upper-bracket rounds featured wins from shira? and borgirlol, with both players securing clean semifinal victories to move deeper into the event.
In the upper final, shira? advanced with a 3–0 score, setting up a grand final clash against acno?, who fought through elimination matches to stay alive.
The lower bracket defined the tournament. acno? eliminated several strong contenders on the way up:
- Defeated Mounir in the opening lower round
- Edged out Skeldra in a tight quarterfinal
- Beat Zivai (Godly) in the lower semifinal
- Overcame borgirlol in the lower final
That run pushed acno? into the grand final from the lower side.
In the first championship set, acno? stopped shira? with a 3–2 score to force a bracket reset. He then controlled the reset set 3–0 to secure the European title. You saw a clear momentum shift once the reset occurred, with acno? dictating tempo and closing games decisively.
Champion (Europe): acno?
South American stage
South America featured a dominant upper-bracket performance from yüz, a two-time world champion. He advanced without dropping a set in the early rounds, defeating ianbh_ and later Kyna to reach the grand final from winners side.
Kyna fought back through the bracket after an early loss, eliminating multiple opponents in the lower stages. Notable lower-bracket results included:
- LGN | sea sweeping early matches
- V3M_T4NQUIL0 advancing past LGN | kant
- Kyna defeating LGN | sea in the lower final
That placed Kyna into a rematch against yüz in the grand final.
The championship set ended 3–1 in favor of yüz. He had already beaten Kyna in the upper bracket, and he repeated that result in the final series to secure the regional crown without needing a reset.
Champion (South America): yüz
Southeast Asia and Middle East region
Southeast Asia and the Middle East also hosted Winter Championship brackets, though with smaller player pools compared to Europe and South America.
In Southeast Asia, KeithThePooPoo continued his long-standing control of the region. He maintained his winning streak and added another seasonal title to his record.
The Middle East bracket ran alongside SEA as part of the same championship window, contributing to the global Winter Circuit structure.
You can expect the Doubles competition to follow from Feb. 27 to March 2, adding another layer to the Winter Championship standings.
