- Sunday 29 November - the top two from each group, eight players, double elimination: Bo3 in both brackets, Bo5 final.
- Vanilla Definitive Edition, mods off, the standard 1v1 automatch maps.
- You declare two races when you register and play only those two all tournament.
- The pool is shared by the top eight: 35 / 22 / 14 / 9 %, and 4 % each for places 5-8.
- Cast by Медренгард and Бальтаир.
- Registration closes on 28 November at 12:00 MSK - the morning of day one.
- No entry cap - the more players sign up, the bigger the four groups get.
Everything else - the full regulations, the map pool, the lobby settings - lives in Discord, and that is where you sign up.
