Improving Immortal

Hello everyone! We have some exciting changes to our current Immortal tournament offerings.

With another rotation on its way, we are as committed as ever to bringing you an engaging Immortal scene. We have been working together closely with our friends at HEX Primal to improve the HEX Primal Immortal Championship series (ICS), and to that end we have made some changes to the Immortal Championship’s schedule, qualification methods, and prizing. We will cover the biggest changes here, but for full details please be sure to check out HEX Primal’s Immortal tournament page.

Scheduling

The HEX Primal ICS championship is moving from Saturdays to Sundays. This means that the upcoming tournament, originally scheduled for Oct 21st at 9am Pacific, will be held on Oct 22nd instead. As part of this transition, the October ICS will have no ticket entry. If you’ve ever wanted to try your hand at Immortal, now is your chance! Subsequent tournaments will use the new qualification system outlined below. These ICS championships will continue to occur at regularly scheduled 2 month intervals. Details on those tournaments will be posted on the in-game calendar, the forum calendar, and HEX Primal’s Immortal tournament page.

Prizing

In addition to the rewards already offered by HEX Primal, we are adding a number of Alternate Art prizes to the ICS. Some of these AAs will be earned in the ICS championship itself. Others will be earned by participating in our new qualification method. The first cosmetic prize, an AA Rune Ear Hierophant, will be awarded for the first time in the October 22nd tournament.

Remember, this upcoming tournament has no ticket requirement, so you should definitely hop on over and take your chances! Here is the prize breakdown for the new ICS Championship:
