ALGS has announced a 12-team partnership program in Year 4 with teams like Fnatic, Moist Esports, TSM, and Disguised.
ALGS’ partnership program has been around since Year 1 as Apex Legends entered its first year of the Global Series amidst 2020’s global crisis. The partnership was there to support orgs with additional “supporting team health and growth”.
However, we haven’t heard much about it since then. But coming into Year 4, ALGS is introducing a new set of 12 partnered teams across various regions to strengthen the ecosystem.
With household names in Apex such as DarkZero, Furia, TSM, and OpTic, joined by the likes of Moist Esports and Disguised, the 12 teams have been chosen as the few partnered ones.
“Each partner team will be provided with a financial stipend in order to help them establish a stable base on which to build their competitive programs,” reads the blog post announcing the program.

Despite the Partnership Program, the format of ALGS will largely be unchanged as Preseason Qualifiers are already underway as it was announced.
