Updates, Qualifier 2:
Fischei is the lead admin of the second qualifier, his ruling is law. The mode was changed from Single Elim to Double Elimination, due to the low amount of players.
The System
The Qualification consists of two subsystems:
- Qualification Tournament I & II: Knock Out Tournament, Winner hold Qualification Spot
- Challenge System: Each winner can be challenged a total of two times, challenger has to 'bid' for the challenge spot.
Whoever survives the system gets a flight, a visum and travel costs for the main event in Russia.

Rules
The standard rules of the overall tournament apply.
Additional Rules:
- Right of Admission (I): The administration reserves the right to change and/or alter existing rules, as well as denying access to the qualifiers without further explanation.
- Right of Admission (II): The administration will not accept the entry of any known hacker or cheater, regardless of when he/she/it was caught breaking the rules. The same logic is applied to known abusers and trolls.
- Discord: The use of discord is mandatory. Admins should be contact primarily through this mean of communication.
- NO SMURFING IN THE QUALIFIERS!
For the sake of transparency, the rules are explained if you want to know the reasoning and deeper meaning.
+ Show Spoiler [footnotes] +
- Right of Admission (I): If you constantly try to bend the rules by nitpicking constantly and/or troll players/administrators in an overboarding(!) way, you will divert attention from the ongoing event. You will then be able to see the event unfolding without you being part of it. For some things I'm just too old, arguing with angry 12 year olds is one of them.
- Right of Admission (II): Hackers suck.
- Discord: Battle.net can not be trusted and Discord is easier to manage in terms of keeping an eye on things. Doesn't mean no admin will be present on the play days.

Can I go on holiays if I won a challenge tournament?
Yes, but please tell us in advance, so we know.
Why this shit system? This sucks!
We have limited resources and admins to host the qualifications. Also, Brain pledged to host an event like this again if we raise 5000$ - this is an attempt to make that happen while also trying to defuse the hard qualification system a bit. Keep in mind you get a free holiday if you hold a qualification spot in a worst case scenario, in a best case scenario you win money and get the flight, visa and everything on top. It seems fair to me.
Who can bid for the Challenge Games?
Literally everyone. The winner can outbid his challenger, any benefactor can sponsor his favourite player and so on and so forth. Important note: only EU (no Poland) players can actually play for the spot.
Challenge 1: Auction vs. Madinho (Winner Qualifier 2)
Challenger: Bakuryu (55$)
Results: Madinho 4 - 1 Bakuryu
Madinho remains Champion. One challenge Remains.
Challenge 2: Auction vs. Madinho (Winner Qualifier 2)
Challenger: kamezerg (55$)
Deadline: Friday, 19th July, 18 CEST
A bigger prize pool helps out a lot. Brain is thinking of hosting another tournament like this next year if we raise 5000$. Please consider giving something if you can afford it. To give you incentives, I put up a list with possible things we can "sell" you for that.
Ongoing Auction:
Change of Discord Group Picture, Bid: 20$ (NeMu)
Deadline: until closing
