About

5v5, online, weeknights throughout July. If you can field a five, you're in. Revive the old roster or put together a mixed squad who just want to get back in the server.

💶 €50 entry per team, per title (€10 per player) 🥇 €300 prize pool per title (€200 1st / €100 2nd) 🗓️ Registration closes Friday 3 July 🎮 Finals Week begins 27 July

Every entry helps support and fund the Collegiate Series for the next generation of student competitors.

The pre-event seeds for the event were as follows[1] :

1. Munchbunch
2. Timmy's Daycare
3. Cache Me If You Can
4. D Padgeywadgies
5. The Silver Smurfers

The first week of this event was played with 4 teams, but expanded to 5 teams to later include The Silver Smurfers who were later given the 5th seed. As such, the original tournament page was invalidated with a new page created. In addition, it was decided by popular vote amongst the teams that the rest of the group stage games would be played as best of 2 games instead of best of 3 games. Additionally, each of the 5 teams would be given a single Bye in the group stage such that each team would play all other teams in the new tournament format with the additional team added.[2]

Rules

Participation

  • Open to everyone. We're not checking diplomas or where you went to college — if you can field a five, you're in. Treat it as an open tournament.
  • Five starters, plus up to two subs. The captain registers and pays on behalf of the team.
  • You'll get a confirmation email that walks you through it: join the Discord, build your team on Challengermode, then finish your profile on Nemesis to get placed — all before your first fixture.

Format

  • Group stage:
    • Best of 2 round robin group stage
    • Originally Best of 3 round robin group stage but updated to Best of 2 after week 1
  • Bracket stage:
    • 4 team double elimination bracket stage

Expand to see the full list of rules for this event:

  • Team size: 5vs5.
