The 2021 regionals will welcome the best teams across World of Tanks Blitz, as they go at it for a share of a $50,000 USD prize pool. The Asia and CIS regions have had their turn and now it's North America's turn. Here's everything you need to know about the 2021 World of Tanks Blitz North America Cup.

The 2021 World of Tanks Blitz North American regional championship will run on November 18 at 7 p.m. PT/10 p.m. ET and November 19 at 6 p.m. PT/9 p.m. ET. This is the last of the four regional championships. The following four teams are still alive and will meet in the Blitz North America Cup tournament:

  • [JKR] Jokers
  • [PURPL] Leverage
  • [RGN] Reign
  • [PRAMO] Battle Buddies

Here's how the prizes will be allocated across the top four teams (all monetary amounts in USD):

Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
