All earlier rounds will be best of 1.
Rules
All players must join the ZSGG Discord to participate, and replays for all games must be uploaded to the STING EA thread in the #replays channel within our discord.
In case of a game-disrupting bug or exploit, the tournament organizers reserve the rights to change what can be allowed during the tournament.
Allowed Choices:
ALL 1v1 maps in the Ladder Pool may be chosen.
ALL Main factions on ladder (Grell, Legion, Protectorate) may be chosen. Xol will not be allowed in this tournament due to its current non-ladder status.
ALL Mercenaries (Arandi, Cha'Kru, Endari, Free Corsairs, Marran, and Valkaru) may be chosen.
ALL Heroes may be chosen.
Best X of picks:
Game 1: coin toss winner gets priority. Game 2+: loser of the previous game gets priority.
The player with priority chooses the map, then decides whether to host. If they host, they declare faction and merc first, and their opponent counterpicks. If they pass, their opponent hosts and declares first, and the player with priority counterpicks.
Prize Pool
As always, we will be using Matcherino to host the tournament, meaning anyone can contribute to the prize pool! We'll contribute as well, but we welcome any contributions to make the prize pool even bigger!
