We're going to be putting every dollar raised into improving the tournament, whether it's something obvious like boosting the prize pool, or subtle behind the things like buying production lunch. To be clear we already have the money to make this tournament happen, additional fundraising just goes towards enhancing it! That being said, hopefully some of the rewards and goals will make this more fun for everybody to get involved with as well.

These matches are played on the European server, but open to anyone to qualify (With the exception of those eligible to play in the KR/AO qualifiers below) After qualifiers complete, there will be a day of group seeding selection via stream & voice chat, while a webcam would be preferred, it's not necessary, however you are required to have access to at least a microphone, and are expected to spend qualifier prize money to buy one if you don't already have one in order to proceed.
