Come On And Slam

$2,250 wowzers

Welcome, honorable denizens of the Nexus, to the Super Brawl. TeamLiquid is happy to present the first edition of the Super Brawl, our Heroes event with a $2,250 prize pool. This will run similar to our old TL Opens, an event designed for professionals and open teams alike. Get a chance to practice against the best!

This time around our event won't occur in a vacuum however, and as a part of the Road to Blizzcon community circuit a Top 8 finish will grant seeding points for the July North American Open and reward a finish here with a higher seed in next month's Road to Blizzcon event.

Registration

Teams will register by having a Team Captain sign in using our tournament tool linked above. Because our tool is old it will ask you a thing like enter your StarCraft race, use that to remind yourself how great that game is and enter in anything because it won't apply to this. I may or may not have that changed in the next few days.

Teams may register up until 5 minutes before the tournament begins. That is, they may register until Saturday, Jun 27 4:00pm GMT (GMT+00:00). After that, team captains will be required to check-in to confirm that they will be attending. Check-in occurs between Saturday, Jun 27 3:00pm GMT (GMT+00:00) and Saturday, Jun 27 4:00pm GMT (GMT+00:00). Players must both sign up before check-in time and check-in within the 55 minute period to enter the tournament.
