Unlike traditional cumulative leaderboards, the PUBG: Battlegrounds Americas Series uses a tiered qualification system. Each day, the leaderboard wipes clean, and only the top performers punch their ticket to the Finals 1 weekend. On Day 1, the top 8 teams qualified; today, 5 more will secure their spots, leaving just 3 final seats for the Sunday survivors. This format effectively eliminates the 'safe play' meta—if a team doesn't perform on the day, previous points won't save them.
For those watching from the sidelines, there is more than just top-tier gameplay on the line. Twitch and Kick drops have been confirmed for the upcoming Grand Finals weekends. If you are looking to deck out your character with exclusive gear, make sure your accounts are linked and tuned in during these windows:
- Finals 1: April 24 – April 26
- Finals 2: May 8 – May 10
Broadcasts go live daily at 4PM PDT across Twitch, YouTube, and Kick. While the Playoffs are about the grit of qualifying, the Finals are where the real loot—both for the players and the viewers—comes into play. The daily reset in these opening rounds ensures that by the time we hit the Finals on April 24, we are only seeing the teams that can perform under immediate pressure.
