* The following is based on the conversion of USD -> CAD as of 4/19/2018. It should also be note that any additional prize increase from the Matcherino fundraiser, will be distributed between 3-16th place only



Tickets available for purchase



Format:



2-day event

May 18th will be an open bracket available for anyone to compete, no restrictions outside of the BaseTradeTV ban list. Ideally this will feature dreamhack-like group staging, leading to an eventual top 4, however may be "dumbe down" to a simple double-elimination bracket depending on participation numbers & sign ups.





May 19th will be the top 4 from day 1 challenging the 4 players flown in from the online playoffs. There will be a FFA to determine seeding in the RO8, it's highly encouraged players come prepared to make alliances & back stab.



FFA (There will be a time cap to prevent stalemates, similar to the recent TwitchRivals event) to determine seeding order

Tickets available for purchase



There are lots of hotels, and cheap AirBnB's in the area, and most noteworthy the Abereen Skytrain Stop. The Skytrain stop is a 5 minute walk away from the venue, and is accessible easily through all of Richmond & Vancouver, so you could easily stay in downtown Vancouver and take a 30 minute trip to the venue (the Skytrain is very cheap!). This is really important due to the fact there is NO UBER OR LYFT available in British Columbia, so plan accordingly.



The Venue Address is

Net8 Arena

#101-4411 No.3 Road

Richmond, BC

Canada



Event will be approximately 11:00AM - 6:00PM (PDT, local time) each day







Be prepared to see this a lot, and get some cash before coming, as most non-chain stores in Richmond will not accept credit cards.

Toronto's western-most suburb. Just a little west of Mississauga.



Nice to see the northwest getting a live event. it seems Blizzard compensates for being in the southwest by putting a metric tonne of sponsored SC2 events in the north east.

If you buy a contender ticket do you have access to a computer for the entire event or just when you are supposed to play in tournament? Moderator INFLATE YOUR POST COUNT; PLAY TL MAFIA
