Both underdog teams and well-known teams dominated the matches in the Battlegrounds Mobile India Series (BGIS) 2023 Round 2 qualifications. Before Round 2 began, Krafton provided a list of the teams that had been disqualified from the competition. 512 teams had proceeded to Round 2.

BGIS Round 3 is ready to begin, and Krafton has just released a new list of Round 2 disqualified teams.

The grounds for teams’ exclusion from BGIS 2023

In the online qualifiers, more than 2000 teams took part, and 256 of them played in Round 2 of BGIS 2023. Because of hackers and cheats in their qualification matches, many teams were eliminated from the competition. 

Prior to Round 2, Krafton India Esports took severe action against a number of BGIS 2023 teams after receiving complaints from the community. Another list of teams who have been eliminated from BGIS 2023 Round 3 has now been made public by Krafton.
