All new format
Tt eSPORTS Challenge will debut with a new format that deviates from the initial month long league. Instead, TeC will host one day tournaments every weekend in order to provide the greatest accessibility for the community without the need for month long commitments. StarCraft 2 will be the game for the first series of tournaments.
Each tournament will be casted by experienced community casters. They will also host regular giveaways on our Twitch.tv stream, and TeC will be as much about the spectator experience as it is the player experience. Be sure to tune in weekly for your chance to win a variety of Tt eSPORTS gear!
We are again partnering with Cyber Evolution, LLC to bring you the highest quality tournament possible. Working with CEVO has again illuminated the fact that they are passionate as ever about the tournament platform and upholding the integrity of competition.
Community Commitment
Tt eSPORTS Challenge is committed to providing the highest quality tournament and platform for the gaming community. With a consistent weekly tournament and substantial prize pool, we hope that aspiring progamers with other life obligations, such as work and school, will now have another avenue to showcase their talent in the eSports community.
TeC also aims to work closely with other regular tournaments and cups to avoid scheduling conflicts, giving a player the option to compete in various other tournaments if they so choose. Though conflict is inevitable with so much content being produced by the community, TeC will continue to support the players and the community first through open communication with other tournament organizers.
Reaching out to grassroot communities
2011 brought an unprecedented interest for live eSports tournaments and events. Alongside the big names of offline competition, we noticed numerous local communities and school clubs hosting a variety of gaming tournaments. TeC will make a substantial effort to reach out and support these local communities in 2012 in an effort to meet the challenge of sustaining competitive gaming culture.
Stay tuned to www.ttesportschallenge.com and http://usa.ttesports.com for more details about our outreach in the near future.
