Due to overwhelming interest, SCCL Star Marine 4v4 tournament organizers and competitors made the unanimous decision to start match play early on Friday night. The preliminary matchups were completely voluntary and included spectacular performances by a few early leaders including Paintball Wizards, lead by Jumbify and Angels of the Warp, lead by Nelerath.

Paragon Industries get’s a big hat’s off for their showing as well, after fielding two teams who faced off in round 1. Team A came out of this first match the victor, but each has more opportunities today to go on to glory, thanks to the double elimination rule.

In terms of organization, the competition got off to a smooth start after a 30-minute briefing to go over rules and logistics. Tirent’s commentating on the main Twitch channel for the event was surprisingly professional for a guy who claims he’s never done it before.

The action continues today at 2PM Eastern/11 Pacific when the full tournament joins the excitement. You can keep up with the outcomes on the SCCL bracket page or watch all the excitement unfold today on two separate channels:

SCCL A – Hosted by Tirent!

SCCL B – Hosted by INN’s own Gyun Nah!

Also, don’t forget to sign up for the INN/SCCL Mustang Delta giveaway during the event!

Good luck to all the competitors! Hat’s off to the organizers for a great event.
