The first team to defeat everyone on the opposing team's roster (5 wins, or a best of 9) will earn $500 for their team to split however they want.

For example, if a team wins 3 weeks in a row, they will have earned themselves $1,500 total, and have $300 worth of bounty on them. If a new team defeats them, they will earn the $500 for winning the week, as well as claim the $300 bounty.

go reign! I had similar thoughts regarding EG and PuMa last week.



Do they work a schedule so that NA, Europe and Korea players can all play? If not, I doubt we will see Koreans play in this tournament.

Otherwise Reign should take it.



By the way, since there was some talk about Korean teams being involved on the stream last time, what happens if MVP gets invited as well, does DRG get to play on both teams? I doubt DRG will play. If he does, I can't see coL losing... ever.Otherwise Reign should take it.By the way, since there was some talk about Korean teams being involved on the stream last time, what happens if MVP gets invited as well, does DRG get to play on both teams?

GreEny K Profile Joined February 2008 Germany 7312 Posts #19 I have a feeling that coL will take it because of their Korean players, if they do not play then I see RGN winning it. Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

I think people underestimate Complexity, the guys did earn their way into the EG Master's Cup playoffs at the end of the day, and made it 2nd place over some really good teams. I think they could take out Reign even without the help of their Korean partners, but with them, it's very unlikely that they'll lose.
