For this tournament there is no limit on the amount of people that can sign up for each qualifier, so go for it! We are likely going to be broadcasting some of the games so it's a good chance to test your bracket skills even if you don't make top four There's people signed up for quals below 1900 mmr already.

If you qualify it means your earned it, not that you took a spot of someone better. It s an open qualifier so give it your best, it s a good experience!

Who is casting the tournament??

Depends largely on who qualifies - some of our casters will be trying for a top16 spot. We will be testing out some new faces during qualifiers and play it by ear. I envision there being one caster of each race approximately and rotating.

Almost to the $200 incentive for the group selection cast. Let's get a few more donations!

If youre looking to add the matcherino, we have a coupon code! It's rumble21 and we have 50 of them so if you have 30 seconds to go submit that we appreciate it a lot
