PUBG Mobile has decided to start taking entries for what they are calling a global competition with the "Star Challenge 2018" tournament. Basically, it's their way of snagging the best streamers in the community, from high-profile celebs and well-known players all the way down to popular people with a decent following, to compete for a grand prize of $200k for a global champion and $100k for a regional champion (with other prizes for 2nd and 3rd in both).

Below are the complete rules for entry, but the thing that's going to kill a lot of participation in this tournament is that you have to have 1,000 followers on social media to even be considered to sign up. Which means I could with just my Twitter or Facebook account, but a lot of skilled players who do this for fun or stream on the regular with a low audience wouldn't qualify. If you do… good luck to you!
