RGN Pro Series LAN with $30k

The offline finals of the RGN Pro Series will take place at the eSports arena in Southern California and offer 16 teams a shot at a $30,000 prize-pool.

The announcement of the RGN Pro Series featuring a $50,000 prize-pool in 2015 first saw both its European and North American online leagues play out over the summer and dispense $10,000 per region.

As seen in the original announcement of the league, the original $30,000 offline tournament planned to invite the top five teams from each region, however the tournament will now be run as a sixteen-team event and has retooled itself as a more North American event.

The location has also switched over the weeks, and the new venue for the RGN Pro Series LAN will be the eSports arena (which recently hosted a $5,000 opener) in Santa Ana, California (part of the Greater Los Angeles Area) and the event will run from November 16-18 (in the week before IEM San Jose as well as a day after the iBP Invitational Cup in the same venue).
