Christmas Clash Tournament Details
The Christmas Clash, taking place from December 13th to 14th, 2025, offers competitors the chance to win the majority share of a $3,000 (~£2,230) prize pool. This thrilling event is backed by Riot Games’ First Impact sponsorship program, which offers an additional $2,500 (~£1,850) bounty for the winning duo. According to official sources, players with a North American Riot Games account are eligible to participate, regardless of their physical location. To join, players must register via the 2XKO Discord server.
Matches will begin as best-of-three (BO3) rounds, narrowing down to the top three competitors, before escalating to a best-of-five (BO5) format for the finals.
Road to Frosty Faustings
The Christmas Clash marks the grand finale of the Road to Frosty Faustings series. This three-week online event serves as a qualifier for the upcoming Frosty Faustings XVIII festival next year.
