ELEAGUE will take a trip back in time to one of the most iconic moments in Counter-Strike history when it features the Grand Final of its recent CS:GO Invitational 2019, which saw popular North American squadCloud9 take on the star-studded Europeans of FaZe Clan in a rematch of the ELEAGUE Major: BostonGrand Final. The brand's three-part series will conclude with the final episode airing Friday, March 29, following live NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Championship coverage and original programming on TBS (approx. 10 p.m. PT / 1:30 a.m. ET Saturday).

The winner adds another ELEAGUE trophy to their collection, along with the largest share of the event's $150,000 prize pool.

ELEAGUE programming will continue on TBS with a one-hour feature show showcasing the best moments from its upcoming fan event at the NCAA Final Four Fan Fest - the ELEAGUE x Rocket League Game Zone presented by AXE - Friday, April 12, at 11 p.m. ET/PT.
