Nine years ago the once great king of Australia gave up pro-gaming and absconded from his throne. With his disappearance the land was plunged into anarchy and self doubt. Bereft of a true leader, the Australian continent was plunged into darkness. The populace are just shadows of their former selves, being ruled by unjust lords fighting for the title of King. This brutality must end. A true King must be found to rule the continent of Australia forever-more. I hereby challenge all pretenders to my throne. Who shall prevail? The old King? Feeble with age with tired gnarly old hands and a mind full of dusty memories of long past glories? Or shall a young usurper with a will to succeed rise to the challenge? I present to you, 'The Australian Rumble'. To crown a new King to rule.

Winner gets AUD $100.

What is this?

I realized recently that it has been almost 9 years since I left Korea. I played a few games last year and there were some decent Australians. But I want to see how good they really are.

Hence, a tournament must be played to crown a new ruler of Australia.

Format

This tournament will consist of 2 parts.
