class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This is not a normal bracket where you simply follow the seed order and pray for good matchups. BLAST Bounty uses opponent selection with bounties attached to teams. Higher seeds come in with bigger bounties, and when you eliminate a team, you claim their bounty. That means every pick has a real risk reward decision behind it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A quick example of why this matters<br>If you are a low seed and you take out a top seed early, you do not just get a win, you get the money attached to that team. If you are a favorite, you cannot afford a slow start because one bad series can flip the entire money picture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Format_and_structure\"><\/span>Format and structure<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is the flow in plain English:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Online stage in Europe<br>32 teams play through two rounds, best of three series.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Top 8 advance to Malta<br>Those eight teams move to the BLAST studio for the Finals.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Finals format<br>Single elimination playoffs, best of three, then a best of five grand final.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"844\" height=\"364\" src=\"https:\/\/daddyskins.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-13-1.jpg\" alt=\"BLAST Bounty Winter 2026\" class=\"wp-image-3760\" srcset=\"https:\/\/daddyskins.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-13-1.jpg 844w, https:\/\/daddyskins.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-13-1-768x331.jpg 768w, https:\/\/daddyskins.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-13-1-512x221.jpg 512w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 844px) 100vw, 844px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Prize_pool_and_how_the_money_works\"><\/span>Prize pool and how the money works<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Total prize pool is $1,150,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>HLTV also breaks it down like this: $500,000 as prize money plus $650,000 as a club share.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On top of that, the event is built around bounty values tied to seeding. On the BLAST event page you can see examples like top seeds carrying $60,000 bounties, while many lower seeds start at $0.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why fans should care<br>Because money is tied to who you beat, not just how far you go, the early rounds can feel like playoff matches. Upsets hit harder and favorites are forced to show form immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Schedule\"><\/span>Schedule<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Times below are listed in CET on the viewer guides and match schedule coverage\/<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Online_stage_Round_of_32\"><\/span>Online stage: Round of 32<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<table> <tr><td><strong>Tuesday, Jan 13<\/strong><\/td><td>12:00 OG vs FUT<br>14:30 EYEBALLERS vs FaZe<br>17:00 fnatic vs Astralis<br>19:30 HOTU vs Aurora<\/td><\/tr> <tr><td><strong>Wednesday, Jan 14<\/strong><\/td><td>12:00 Passion UA vs GamerLegion<br>14:30 NRG vs HEROIC<br>17:00 Monte vs Natus Vincere<br>19:30 Virtus.pro vs Vitality<\/td><\/tr> <tr><td><strong>Thursday, Jan 15<\/strong><\/td><td>12:00 M80 vs Gentle Mates<br>14:30 Inner Circle vs 3DMAX<br>17:00 Ninjas in Pyjamas vs Liquid<br>19:30 ECSTATIC vs Falcons<\/td><\/tr> <tr><td><strong>Friday, Jan 16<\/strong><\/td><td>11:00 ENCE vs PARIVISION<br>13:30 SINNERS vs Spirit<br>16:00 BetBoom vs paiN<br>18:30 9INE vs FURIA<\/td><\/tr> <\/table>\n\n\n\n<p>Matchups and time blocks are listed in the published schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Online_stage_Round_of_16\"><\/span>Online stage: Round of 16<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Saturday, Jan 17<br>12:00 Round of 16 match 1<br>14:30 Round of 16 match 2<br>17:00 Round of 16 match 3<br>19:30 Round of 16 match 4<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sunday, Jan 18<br>12:00 Round of 16 match 5<br>14:30 Round of 16 match 6<br>17:00 Round of 16 match 7<br>19:30 Round of 16 match 8<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Malta_Finals\"><\/span>Malta Finals<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Finals are scheduled for Jan 22 to Jan 25 in Malta, with 8 teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">BLAST Bounty 2026 Season 1<br><br>HOTU vs Aurora<br><br>First CS tournament of the new year<br><br>\u2022 HOTU<br>  \u00b7 tier-2 team facing mainly similar opponents recently<br>  \u00b7 n0rb3r7 is their only experienced player<br>  \u00b7 Kazakh\/Russian roster competing in Tier 2\/3 events<br>  \u00b7 no notable upsets against\u2026 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/xpujoUjVGS\">pic.twitter.com\/xpujoUjVGS<\/a><\/p>&mdash;
