[PUBG] List of Scrims You Can/Could Join from Japan

I got tired of searching every time for “which scrims can/could I join from Japan?”, so I wrote down the ones I had joined myself or heard about. Note: The descriptions include my own experiences and subjective impressions.

Punirim

A community-led scrim that split out the irregular scrim portion of a PUBG community server called “Ant1-Gaming (@Ant1_gaming),” which only allowed players with high K/D to join. It was held regularly, mainly organized by the host, Puni-san (@puy_pui2). An invite-only scrim for Japanese amateur-to-pro players, streamers, and others, it was one of the pioneers of Japan’s regularly held domestic scrim culture at the time.

PUBG SCRIM JAPAN

One of Japan’s largest PUBG scrim operations communities, developed from Punirim. Its operations are thoroughly structured and organized in close connection with the competitive scene. In general, only league players and teams can participate, and it uses a Tier system.

A-Scrim

An open scrim operated by PUBG SCRIM JAPAN. Because even pick-up teams can participate, it also meets demand from people who “cannot become competitive players but want to try joining scrims” or “want to fight pro and amateur teams.”

EGGNIS Scrim

Hosted by the scrim community “EGGNIS JAPAN.” There was also a period when it was held every day. Many professional and amateur teams participate.

AGM G-Scrim

A scrim community held regularly, centered around the organizer Okomeken-san (@okomeken_). Events and tournaments such as AGM Festa and AGM JAPANCUP are sometimes held as well. If you want to participate, it might be a good idea to contact Okomeken-san.

JUPITER Scrim

A practice scrim hosted by the Japanese pro team JUPITER. It is held irregularly. They are recruiting staff on the page below.

GrimNight Scrim

A practice scrim hosted by the Japanese pro team Grim Night. It is held irregularly. If you want to participate, it might be a good idea to contact Hyrule-san (@uver_world_).

Public Scrim

Invite-only scrims hosted by Korean teams. They are often held during weekday afternoons. It was easy to fall into a daily rhythm of Korean scrims in the afternoon and domestic scrims at night. If you want to participate, you will probably need a connection through Korean friends.

GPL Scrim (GGWP SCRIM)

An amateur-focused scrim operated and managed by the Korean esports organization “GGWP Play League.” You can participate in the scrims by joining the official Discord channel from the official website. Teams from Japan also participate from time to time.
