With all the groups now formed, the group stage of Around the World Cup II is ready to take place. The eight remaining armies will face off against each other in different time zones across the week.

Designed by Master DS
Around the World Cup II officially started last weekend. Throughout it, the community witnessed two three-way battles taking place, in which six armies fought for a place in the Group Stage.
On Saturday, we saw the first match of ATWCII between the Special Weapons and Tactics, The Bastille Vanguard, and the Void Troops. This 30-minute battle ended with VT successfully defeating their opponents in a close match. The following day showcased the confrontation between the Fire Vikings, Penguins of Agartha, and Valiant Azure Knights. Lasting the traditional 30 minutes, the Fire Vikings surprisingly beat the Agarthians, while the Azure Knights dropped from the tournament.
Therefore, both victorious armies will proceed to their respective groups and fight in the Group Stage.
