What is PGI.S?
The PUBG Global Invitational.S is a safe, survival showdown to bring teams from 8 regions around the world together for what is already turning into one of our biggest tournaments.

PGI.S offers a fresh take on PUBG Esports! We can't wait to see the tournament unfold.
Rank Decision
Our first taste of the action-to-come in PGI.S happened during PGI.S Rank Decision! Over 24 matches, our 32 teams were randomly assigned to Group A, B, C or D, and would compete under a traditional ruleset to determine which teams entered the Weekly Series!
As expected in a global event, Rank Decision was fierce. Teams aim to end in the Top 16, but the higher in ranking-the better your chances are getting into the Weekly Series to start earning cash. The difference between #18 and #20, is a team waiting 2 whole matches to get their turn to cash in on PGI.S!
PGI.S Rank Decision Resul
PUBG teams from Asia regions dominated early Rank Decision-with a few moments for other regions to shine. Soniqs is proving themselves worthy of playing the global circuit. By the end of Rank Decision, fan favorites and former PCS Champions like Multi Circle Gaming, DivisionX Gaming, FaZe Clan, and Triumphant Song failed to secure Top 16!
Teams currently placed #17 - 31 will wait desperately on the sidelines for their chance to grab a WWCD and advance to the Weekly Final.For those who don't make it to the Weekly Final, a Bottom 16 Rank Decision will be hosted to decide their placements for the upcoming Weekly Series!
