After a rough year in the Pacific Championship Series, Liyab Esports will be facing Panic for their slot in the regional league.

Panic stood tall in the PCS 2021 Spring Promotion, only dropping a single game in the entire tournament. In the Finals, Panic swept Kaiju 3-0 to get a chance to contest Liyab for their slot in the PCS. Panic and the seven teams qualified for the promotion tournament by their cumulative ranking in Ranked Solo/Duo.

Liyab Esports ended Spring and Summer in 9th place with a 4-14 record at the end of the year. Liyab were close to qualifying for playoffs at the end of split, but faltered at the hands of the Berjaya Dragons and Machi Esports in Week 7.
