• Asia-Pacific: First up is the Asia-Pacific Brawl Stars Finals, taking place on July 30. The four best teams from the regional Challenge Season will gather at the Kuala Lumpur Battle Arena in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia to play in front of a live audience. They will make their way through the double-elimination bracket in an attempt to be the first-ever team to claim a regional Snapdragon Mobile Challenge title.
