<p>This Resident Evil 2 Remake: Newcomers&#39; Speedrun Tournament will feature 8 brand new RE2R speedrunners, all competing for a portion of the prize pool. It is an open tournament, so anyone who has<strong> never speedrun RE2R before</strong> can submit. Only the runners who qualify with the 8 top times by July 17th 11:59pm EST will be called to participate in the tournament.</p><p><br></p><p>During the next 4 weeks, everyone will be encouraged to start learning and practicing the speedrun for Claire A Standard 120fps. Sneevil and a talented team of coaches will be in the tournament discord to help new runners learn the run. Sneevil will also be offering tutorial sessions and other learning materials. At the end of this 4 week period, the top 8 runners will be selected to enter the tournament. Runs must be submitted to the tournament discord by July 17th 11:59pm EST in order to be eligible.</p><p><br></p><p>After this, the top 8 will <strong>each</strong> be assigned a coach, whose job it is to help them train for the tournament. After a week of one on one training with their coach, they will compete in the tournament. On tournament day, the winning runner and coach will be splitting the prize pool. May the best Newbie win!</p><p><br></p><p>While there is a prize pool for this tournament, I am putting this on for fun and to encourage new people to run this game. I have been speedrunning RE2R for over 6 years and love watching new people learn the speedrun. Also, who doesn&#39;t love a good tourney and friendly rivalries?</p><p><br></p><h3>When:</h3><p>Saturday, July 25th at 12pm to 9pm EST.</p><p><br></p><h3>Where:</h3><p><a href="https://www.twitch.tv/Sneevil" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">https://www.twitch.tv/Sneevil</a></p><p><br></p><h3>Discord:</h3><p>There is an event discord for this Tournament.
