Teams for DH Asia closed qual decided

The closed qualifier will take place from December 3-4, which will feature eight teams in a online best-of-three single elimination bracket. They will fight it out until one team remains, who will compete at the main event in Las Vegas next year from February 15-19.

In the East Asia qualifier, TheMongolz used Erdenedalai "⁠maaRaa⁠" Bayanbat to fill in the void left by Temuulen "⁠Zilkenberg⁠" Battulga's departure. The Mongolians faced YETTI in the grand final and captured both maps with a 16-6 scoreline on Mirage and Cobblestone.
