A new online tournament called Rising Stars Asia has been unveiled, featuring $1,000 and four teams from the Asian continent.

Rising Stars Asia is a new monthly online tournament hosted by E-frag.net and sponsored by Hitbox that is aimed at giving CS:GO teams from this continent more exposure and the opportunity to make some money in the process.

The tournament will use a double-elimination format, with every match using a best-of-three system except the final, which will use a best-of-five system with a one-map advantage for the team coming from the Upper Bracket.

For the first edition of the tournament, running from January 23-25, the organisation invited Chinese trio of Defuse - who feature two members of the pow team that attended ESWC 2014 -, NFace and ZZCY, as well as Vietnamese side Team Skyred.
