The Gemini Korean Invitational is a tournament series I've starting up that is funded through my Patreon and today I'm announcing the April King of the Hill!
It's been a bit since the last GKI, but this time I'm trying out something different! I'll be doing a King of the Hill style tournament featuring 8 different top Korean players fighting for $300 worth of prize money that was accumulated over the last few months on my Patreon!
The format will include:
- 7 different Bo3 matches, starting with Patience vs soO
- Each map win is worth $10
- The final series win is $30
- The highest win streak is $60
- Even split will happen in case of a tie
- Each Bo3 has a set first map and then the loser picks the next map
Taking some inspiration from the amazing series of KotH tournaments, SHOUTcraft Kings, the remaining 6 players will remain nameless and I'll be choosing the players I have ready to put on the most entertaining matches with a reveal of the challenger before each match begins.
You'll be able to watch the stream live at https://www.twitch.tv/geminisc2/ on the 12th at 5 AM EST/ 11 AM CET/ 6 PM KST..
Due to GSL and other events happening I have to keep it at a more EU friendly time, so sorry again for people who enjoyed it at the 1PM KST slot. This was really the only possible option with how much stuff is going on this month.
VODs will be up on my YouTube channel within 1-2 days aftewards.
If you want to download the replays of the tournament, then you can become a patron and I'll have the link posted to download them within 15 minutes of the tournament finishing! Any tier is able to download them.
If you'd like to further support the tournament series then all patrons above $100 will still be added to the next edition's prize pool! I still have enough funding for another 4 player tournament again so there will be at least another in the future!
Thanks again for any support and I hope you all tune in to watch!
