The fourth installment of the $100,000 cup begins on April 25.

Update:ex-MAD Lions have been replaced by ONYX.

The fourth edition of the Pinnacle Cup has been announced along with the teams taking part in the first of the three stages, the double-elimination group stage.

Outside of some usual suspects who often take part in lower-tier tournaments taking place in Europe, such as HAVU, Falcons, and William "⁠draken⁠" Sundin's Savage, a couple of South American teams appear on the team list.

Those are Isurus and Case, who recently failed to qualify for the PGL Major after taking part in the Americas RMR in Romania, Bucharest. They will compete against European opposition for four spots in the Swiss stage, where 12 more invited teams will join the event.

The first two stages will run until May 6, with the playoffs taking place following the conclusion of PGL Major Antwerp, on May 25-27, with four teams directly invited to the quarter-finals.
