After a break of more than two months, NeXT is back! In the summer, Moon won the tie breaker game and helped Team South Korea get the title in the NetEase Esports X Tournament (against Team China). This winter, NeXT will organize another tournament with a different format. There will be four teams that will play in this upcoming edition of NeXT.

The 10 players that participated in the NeXT summer edition, TH000, Infi, Fly, 120, Colorful, Lyn, Moon, FoCuS, Lawliet, Soin, will be enlisted as potential candidates for the 4 Team Leader positions, and the fans will be to vote for their favorite player!

The 4 players with most votes will become the Team Leaders. Once this is done, NeXT will invite 10 additional players who will play in a qualifier tournament against the remaining 6 players (the ones that were not chosen as team leaders). This qualifier tournament will be in a round robin format, and 8 of the players will qualify for the offline finals. At the finals, the Team Leaders will be able to choose 2 of these qualified players to play for their teams.
