Attention Commanders!


Our fellow community member Encore^ has a very special gift for you. I know that there are multiple events running at the moment, however, this one here will be available for eight players only and should fit in everyone's holiday schedule.

The Format

  • Eight player 1v1 single elimination tournament, starting with Quarterfinals.
  • All rounds on Best of 5.
  • Mirror matches in fixed order: vGLA, vChina, vUSA, Tank, Air.
  • Matches have to be played on 2v2 maps according to the Map Pool (see below).
  • Prize money: $100 sponsored by Encore^. Winner takes it all.

The Rules

  • No rush for 5 minutes. That means no crossing the middle (bridge, river, choke point...) of each map with any unit before time is up (including air carpet bomb, workers, dozers etc.).
  • One superweapon limit.
  • Semi-finals and finals have to be streamed.
  • Our fair play rules apply. No scaffold abuse.
  • Games have to be played via CnC:Online.
  • Gentool 7.3 with upload mode on mandatory.
  • All replays have to be posted here.

Map Pool

  • Fallen Empire
  • Flooded Plains
  • Lone Eagle
  • Tournament B
  • Tournament Island
Players agree on first map themselves (vGLA mirror). After that loser picks next map (vChina mirror) and so on. Positions have to be selected diagonally across from each other on each map.

Players


At least three slots are remaining. Please write in this topic if you would like to participate. Encore^ decides who joins the event.
The tournament starts as soon as we have eight players. Deadlines for each round will be about a week, I'll announce them for each round. If possible players might play their next round earlier if a streamer is available. Anyone interested in streaming semi-finals and finals?

Good luck and have fun to all players!

Please wait until we have eight players and a tournament bracket. You don't even know who you will be facing in round one yet tongue.gif

Why no rush? well, I'm a big fan of big armies and late game units, we rarely see units like scuds launcher, nuke canons etc.. 2v2 maps = more resources available = more money for units = big armies hopefully. If we make it 1v1 no rush then whoever succeeds to capture middle has won the game, done. And I would like to see how players manage floating money. I think it will be fun to watch, will see smile.gif

Fair enough that you like big army battles etc and macro.

Just because there more money don't mean they will use nuke or scud tanks. Also, the principles of securing the map still the same, even if there is more resources.

Its your money and ur rules biggrin.gif

i like the format idea, it's good to have a change from no rules 1v1 maps - most of which on TD, same thing over and over.

I have always said 1v1 on 2v2 maps will result in mega gg's

If an extra player is needed to make it eight(8) I'll play, but only if someone is needed because I'm a noob. tongue.gif

If you are good in macro, managing big armies then sure you can join, the idea is 4 experts/4 non experts.
