Team members are selected from your team roster (for this tournament between 4 and 10 players) when you register for the tournament. So you'll want to wait until all players are on your roster before registering your team Team members are selected from your team roster (for this tournament between 4 and 10 players) when you register for the tournament.

It is. It sounds worse than it is. Since you're rotating players, no single player will be playing games all day. And the event starts in the afternoon (NA time) so you won't be staying up late at night. It is. It sounds worse than it is.

Im hoping that the brackets don't even get close to filled. A bo7 clan war can take almost 2 hours if it goes to the ace match. Having to either wait for an hour because you beat a scrub team while two evenly matched teams play is a waste of time, and having 4 or 5 rounds makes this last the entire day. My team is interested and I think this is a good opportunity, but I am not sure that my players can last that long. Im hoping that the brackets don't even get close to filled.

Hmmm... do you think it would help if we had specific start times for each round? That way you don't need to sit there waiting for a round to start. You'll know exactly when the next round is starting. We may be able to implement something of that sort.

Right now we're testing the format out on NA. If it is successful, I'm sure the EU side will do what they can do start something on their end. However, there are no guarantees because we are very short on admins. Short answer: yes probably but it could be awhile before it starts.



I guess this is a convenient time to plug this: if you're interested in helping z33k out feel free to inquire at jobs@z33k.com. We're looking for admins, graphics designers and developers.
