This is a North American tournament, sorry Asia and Europe servers.

(please read the post before signing up)

SIGN UPS CLOSED

All Sign ups are encouraged!

However: Due to the small player size and large pool of application please apply if you are in the top diamond league and or if you have prior high ranked tournament experience. The top players will be chosen and the rest have a chance to compete if chosen at random (10 players).

There are other great larger tournaments out there for everyone else for a list of those see the tournament section of TL, or check the tournament forum. Gosu Coaching hosts great large tournament's every week, check them out!

The games will be casted on: Ls Gamers.net

You can also choose to watch on TL @: LS Gamers Under Stream List

Or: check out the live stream: Nostalgiatag to watch the tournament as we get under way!

Because there was some confusion on how the tournament was run last time here's the quick break down:

      
1. Players must be online 1 hour prior to the tournament start time. As soon as both players are online the tournament organizers will contact you, invite you to game and document the winner.
         
2. Not all games from the round of 16 will be casted but all Quarter Semi and Final games will be casted live on stream. These games will start at tournament start time.
         
3. Games require a tournament admin to be in the game. This is to be able to save replays, determine winners due to DC's and settle disputes.
         
4. All players are required to CONFIRM their place in the tournament. To do this check your email 2 days before the tournament. You will be sent an email telling you that you have been accepted and how to confirm your position in the tournament.
         
5. Any players NOT confirmed will be replaced by a substitute.
   

This should provide us with a smooth tournament with hopefully little downtime. We want to keep it short, sweet and packed with action!

The bracket will be on the website when the majority of players are confirmed.
