Funspark ULTI 2021 Asia Season 3 playoffs is set to kick off next week following the conclusion of the group stage.

The GSL group stage was held over the course of a week, with each team facing off against each other in a best-of-three setting.

New Happy also took the place of Invictus Gaming.

Liberty Walk, AZ Gaming, Yimagen,and NSN Gaming are among the names who just made their debut appearances in the upper-echelon of Asian Counter-Strike. Only the latter team, however, advanced to the playoffs.

The playoff bracket has been determined based on seeding. The action will now shift to higher stakes, with a grand prize of US$15,000, circuit points, and entry into the Funspark ULTI 2021 Asia Season 4 up for grabs.
