Group stage
The Latin American Group Stage will take place on July 23, 24 and 25, with 24 participating teams divided into three brackets.
The 16 invited teams from the Group Stage of PCS4 Americas and the eight classified through the open selection will be gathered.
On each of the three days there will be clashes involving teams from two groups, so the matches will have 16 participants.
There will be a total of 18 matches in the Group Stage, six each day. Each team will therefore play 12 falls.
The Group Stage will follow the new Most Chicken Rule, where the leaderboard is based primarily on the number of matches won by teams and secondarily on the number of eliminations.
The top 8 qualify for the Grand Final.
Grand final
The Grand Final will feature 16 participating teams: eight from the Latin American Group Stage and eight from the North American Group Stage.
The Grand Final will take place over six days over two weeks: from July 30th to August 1st and from August 6th to 8th.
The Grand Finals will follow the Most Chicken Rule, and each of the two weeks will have its own leaderboards and prize pools.
The champion will be determined by the total prizes accumulated by the teams during the two weeks of competition.

In addition to the $50,000 prize pool, the ESL PUBG Masters Grand Final: Stage 2 will award ranking points towards PGC 2021.
