Update: Got another new sponsor!!! Drop.sc will be giving away a 6 month "GO PRO" Membership for 1st place, and SEVEN 2-Month "GO PRO" Memberships, for a total of 8 more prizes!
Update: Ozone Gaming Gear is confirmed as another sponsor! They will be providing prizes from their awesome line-up of keyboards, mice and mouse pads. Pictures will be up soon!
Really awesome idea, can not wait to see how it goes, should be a lot of fun =D. Another reason its super awesome is I never seen anything like this before.
Signature Plastics is now giving a PROMO CODE to everyone who registers! It will be valid until the end of Sept. So, when you place an order to "pimp your ugly keyboard" they will throw in an extra bag of keys!!! Photos on the way!

Have had a few PM's with the same question, should have mentioned this earlier, but here is some clarification:
If you have a specific prize that you want to get, you will be able to see your place on the ladder on n00bgaming.com
When you upload your winning replay, your points will be added to your placement. Therefore, you will know what prize you will qualify for IF you can hold on to your position.
The uploader and ladder table will be accessible on Sept 1 when the EQ Cup begins.
Some were concerned that they would not know where they are placed until the end of the Season. THIS IS NOT THE CASE!
You can monitor your progress and play more or less, according to what prize you want to get.
Finally finished updating the Pictures! All gamer sets include translucent colored keys, and 4 Family G20 (eSports/Gaming) keys. The g20 keys are really cool because they are flat and textured, so you can put them in place of keys you always want to be able to find just by touch.
Starts today at 2pm EDT, look for the countdown timer in the OP. And be sure to check your email at that time, registrants will receive instructions in that email. Btw, here are the bonus keys that you get using the Promo Code, when purchasing something from keycapsdirect.com, promo code will be included in the email.
Just received new Prizes from Ozone gaming!!! Ozone Blade Gaming Keyboard, Ozone Xenon Gaming Mouse, Ozone Onda ST Gaming Headset, and 3 Shooter Mouse Pads. Click on the links in the OP for more info/pics.
Cheers Xsnac. We will be making it prettier etc as we go along and adding more features. It is our Beta League code, so hang in there guys. It will get more smoother.

The great thing about this league, is that you can watch your placement at n00bgaming.com League Table and as the month goes, you can play for the prize you want!!!

This is because your opponent has not submitted his results. In order for the table to update automatically (for now at least), we need both players to submit results.
However, if you have uploaded your replay then we do have it, and we will manually update your points as soon as possible. All points will likely be updated this evening.
Hope you are all having fun in the EQ Cup! We are half way through, and want to update you on a Rule change. We have been listening to feedback from the Participants, and feel this is a necessary change:
"All players must be Currently Ranked 1v1 on at least ONE Server. If you are ranked on multiple servers, please create matches according to your HIGHEST Current Rank."
What does this mean for you??? Here are a few examples: If you are Platinum on EU server, but unranked on NA, you can play in the EQ Cup group on NA, simply make your opponent aware of your placement on EU, and choose an appropriate handicap.
If you are Diamond on NA, and Platinum on EU, but would like to play in the EQ Cup group on EU, simply make your opponent aware that you will be creating match at your higher current rank of Diamond, and choose an appropriate handicap.
We hope that this change will make it easier for everyone to find matches on both servers. If an EQ Cup group does not have enough players, you can now easily switch to another server without having to do another set of placement matches.
And now.....
The State of the League
Halfway through the first Season, and we have had some EPIC games! The handicap system (while not perfect) has made for some extremely fun matches. We are seeing lower league players putting HUGE early game aggression and pressure on highly skilled players, mid game battles that are even, and late game macro that leads to really epic end game battles.
Presently, we have 120 registered participants, but, only the Top 10 will qualify to win a prize! Currently in #1 is:
XELOTHAR
However, his once commanding lead is coming to a close! Fragquenz is quickly gaining ground, with only a 4 point spread to tie for 1st Place! Who will make it through the Season to claim the Grand Prize of WOL Collector's Edition, Blade Gaming Keyboard, Mouse pad and 6 month GO PRO drop.sc subscription? With another half a month to go, it could be ANYONE!!!
Streaming has also been more popular and exciting than we expected. On Monday Evenings "Starcraft Happy Hour" is devoted to live casting your games from the EQ Cup. Anyone can be picked to play, and we have seen lots of participants show up. Too bad we don't have enough time for all the players. But there is always next time!
Also, last week, two NEW SHOWS were added due to demand. Thursday, featured Hunterork and Surge, Hosting games on the EU EQ Cup. They were a TON of fun to watch, and did a great job casting your exciting games. Hopefully they will be casting EVERY thursday!
And on Friday we saw the beginning of "Friday Night Fights" hosted by Agamemnon. Was great to have TONS of players flood into the NA EQ Cup, and cast some really fun games. A highlight, was definately the GG (Gouda Galathorn) match vs Ineffable. What a great game, I won't spoil it for you, here is the VOD:
Great cup! A lot of fun. To bad almost all my games I've played vs masters Next EQ will be epic for sure. Hope AgA will get much more free time to cast more often:D GG to all who compete.

Well, my exams are almost done! So next season should have WAY more streaming. Glad you had fun man!!!
My apologies if you thought GrandMaster could not participate! Everyone is welcome in this league, for eg. -Kyo- is GM and he won a prize! He landed 5th place and got the Blue/White keycaps. Hope to see you in Season 2 starting Dec. 1
