Do you?

Northern Ireland is in the UK, Ireland however is not  . Technically anyway, not sure what the tournament hosts rules are.
|
Thats why I ask
|
Seriously, I love UK tournaments, but then EG DEMUSLIM pops up on my screen..
This gives me no motivation at all now
ffs!!!
|
It is a little weird to have a euro prize for a competition only open to people from the UK.
|

|
Hes repping us in korea soon!
|

Sign Ups are still open, but you gotta have an account on the site to be able to sign up.

We have our ways of checking this.

Starting in a little less than 3 hours
|
FYI, I'll be casting the quarterfinals onwards. Would love to cast the whole thing but I'm pretty under the weather and I've also got the EU vs US Steelseries tonight so gotta take it a little easy.
|
I've been training hard past 2 days for this...
Lets see who i get first round
|
don't forget to check in on the site 30 mins beforehand!
|
Wow! Great to see this tournament being organised. I'd love to see more SC events happening in the UK. And how cool that TotalBiscuit is casting??
I'm only a bronze newbie but I'd love to join in. Unfortunately I'm not online tonight, but I'll definitely look out for more tournaments in future and try and get involved.
