With a patch right around the corner, what better way to brush up on COH2 than some light competition? Star Crossed Kings is a daily King of the Hill tournament that I'll be running starting... right now!Two rounds every day at 18:00 UTC (2PM EDT, 7PM CET)To challenge the current king, join the star crossed cup steam group and go to Romeo's stream at the scheduled time. Challengers will be selected randomly from stream chat using a moobot raffle. The steam group is to make it easier for the challenger and king to find each other on steam for their games. The only rules about who can sign up are:The King plays as axis first. From there, the picking process is as follows:Every round will take place on one map. The maps will be cycled through in the following order:- I reserve the right to disqualify any player for exploiting gamebreaking bugs or any other form of unsportsmanlike behavior.- All commanders and bulletins are allowed.- These things are also allowed:I'll be spectating and casting all games live, but players are encouraged to upload their replays to the COH2.ORG replays section anyway!I'll be streaming all casts live on Twitch and uploading videos afterward on YouTube The longer a king reigns, the greater his prize! The system is simple:- Round 1: You are now King of the Hill! How long will you reign?- Round 2: You have earned the right to reserve a seat in the next Star Crossed Cup, if you choose.- Round 3+: $5 per challenger defeatedThe objective is to remain King for as long as possible. Since the King must play two rounds every day, it won't be easy! To help him out, he has these options at the end of every day:These options give the King a chance to extend his reign as long as possible. The King with the longest reign when the tournament finally concludes will win the tournament and be named the true Star Crossed King!This tournament is designed to be mostly for fun in preparation for the next Star Crossed Cup, but I think we will see some great games! How long will YOU last?
