EPT![[image loading]](http://img837.imageshack.us/img837/8959/headernarrow.png)
metaGameGods (mGG) is a SEA-based, community-run clan with the goal of furthering the Starcraft 2 scene at all levels of involvement. We are proud to present our first pro-level tournament with The SEANA Trials.
This is the first of 2 qualifiers for our $1000+ cash Finals event!
At this stage, invites are extended to teamed/sponsored players only. We regret to have to turn to this, but we must avoid smurfs and hackers at all costs, especially in a size-limited bracket. All teams/sponsored players are eligible. All unsponsored teams/clans are still invited to apply for eligibility below, but we reserve the right to prioritise professional players over semi-professional/amateur players if the bracket becomes full.
Please ensure you read the FAQ section further down to make sure you are eligible to play!
