The road to the title continues! The War Thunder Championships Series Pro Major III Finals kick off on September 12th and 13th!
AVReS and DODEC have already secured their spots in the Winner Bracket, putting them just one victory away from the Final. Meanwhile, the teams in the Losers Bracket are fighting to keep their championship dreams alive. Who will fight their way through and secure a place in the Final?
The battle for the final standings continues! SCAMMER will face JINX, while VOYAGER takes on ASTRA, with both matches determining which teams will fight for 5th and 6th place and which will move one step closer to the Final.
Meanwhile, FiveSticks and ORION will go head-to-head in a battle for 7th and 8th place, with everything on the line as they look to finish their Major III and maybe determine who will have enough Thunderpoints to access the Grand Finals later this year.
