Season 3 will run from July 4th to November 10th Midnight UTC 2024
For FACEIT Matchmaking Season 3, once again we have added $100,000 directly into the Elo Rankings. The players with the highest Elo in each region will receive the following prizes.
| Europe | North America | South America | |
| 1st | $25,000 + FPL Trial | $20,000 + FPL Trial | $5,000 + FPL Trial |
| 2nd | $10,000 + FPL Trial | $8,000 + FPL Trial | $2,000 + FPL Trial |
| 3rd | $5,000 + FPL Trial | $4,000 + FPL Trial | $1,000 + FPL Trial |
| 4th | $2,500 | $2,000 | $600 |
| 5th | $2,000 | $1,750 | $400 |
| 6th | $1,750 | $1,500 | $300 |
| 7th | $1,500 | $1,250 | $250 |
| 8th | $1,000 | $750 | $200 |
| 9th | $750 | $500 | $150 |
| 10th | $500 | $250 | $100 |
In the event of a tie of Elo, the player with the highest win rate will receive the higher value prize. If that fails to resolve the tie, then the player with the most matches will receive the higher value. If that is still inconclusive, then the players will split the sum of the tied prizes.
At the end of the season players in Challenger Rank will be ranked based on the region a player has played the most ranked matches in, regardless of their settings. This may cause small shifts in rank compared to the current numbers shared on the website when prizes are awarded and the end of the Season..
Due to the current SWIFT sanctions on Russian banks, Russian players will not be eligible to win prizes from the FPL leaderboards for the time being. Starting from the August 2022 monthly leaderboard, we will automatically award prizes only to eligible players on the leaderboard. We’ll provide an update on this if this is to change in the future.
FPL CHANGES
The top 3 non-FPL players in each leaderboard (SA, NA and EU) will also qualify for a trial in the prestigious FACEIT Pro League!
We want the path to FPL to be as simple as possible. There was an abundance of amazing upcoming talents in our Season 2 leaderboards, and if you can perform at the level of donk or m0NESY in our matchmaking, then you definitely have the raw talent that deserves a chance in FPL to play with some of the finest pro players and talents out there.
SOFT ELO RESET
All level 10 players above 2800 Elo experienced a soft reset of their Elo. All players will retain their current positions in the Elo ranking ahead of the Season 3 race.
As a reminder, we are soft-elo resetting level 10 players at the beginning of every new FACEIT Matchmaking Season to create a fresh and exciting grind for the prizes, with every player having to prove why they deserve to be at the top and win their share of $100,000!
How much Elo will be reset is highlighted here.
FPL PROVING GROUNDS
We heard your feedback that the FPL Proving Grounds format was too complicated to follow. After the latest product updates we feel extremely confident in the fairness and the legitimacy of our Elo ranking to put directly $100,000 in it and reward the world’s best matchmaking players across the EU, NA and SA regions.
