Japan has the advantage! Home match!

The "JAPAN ROUND" of the "Japan-Saudi Arabia eSports Match," the details of which have been announced this time, will be a home match for the Japanese players.
The home field is an advantage, but the "SAUDI ARABIA ROUND" scheduled to be held in 2022 will be away from home, so we would like to make sure to get a win at home where we have the advantage.
But! I don't think the Saudi players will allow that to happen so easily!
All titles are sure to be hard-fought, so be sure to tune in and watch in real time!
For more information, please check the official website of "Japan-Saudi Arabia eSports Match" and the official Twitter (@JeSUofficial ) of Japan eSports Union (JeSU)!
