Austin LAN 2026 has secured its first VRS-ranked competitor with Iowa Stormboar joining the roster late last week. The team becomes a notable addition among the 25 squads currently registered for the event.
The tournament will take place from November 13th through November 15th at the Sheraton Lisle Naperville Hotel in Naperville, Illinois. Austin Meadows is organizing the event in partnership with FRAG, featuring a substantial $30,000 prize pool.
HLTV has already confirmed coverage of Austin LAN, though the depth of their reporting will scale based on the caliber of participating teams. Team registration costs $2,300, which covers two double-queen hotel rooms and buffet dinners for all three nights of competition.
This tournament represents a crucial opportunity for squads sitting outside the VRS invite threshold to accumulate valuable ranking points at the start of the FiReMAJOR Buenos Aires 2027 competitive cycle. Teams looking to compete can access complete tournament details and registration information through the official channels.
