Our March Warcraft III Tournament will be happening the first week of March, from March 1st to March 3rd. It'll include the following events:

  • DotA: standard 5v5 -cm
  • Legion TD Mega: 4v4, mode is -hpmmhgggcbx3 with builder prophet
  • Mystery event: this is an event for fun, teams are of two and the map will be revealed at the start of the tournament

Registration
To register a team for the tournament, first head to the tournament system. Then, select the event you want to register for, and click Sign Up. Enter a team name and read the registration agreements.

After registering, please PM uakf.b with a list of Warcraft III accounts (include both username and realm) that you will be using during the tournament. Alternatively, you can automatically register the accounts by validating them under your forum account through ENT Link, and by inviting other forum users to the team.

If you don't have a team yet, try posting in the Find A Team section.

Tournament structure
Each event will be a double-elimination tournament. The last two losers bracket rounds may be best of three, depending on the number of teams registered. The final will be a best of five, where the top team (the team that didn't yet lose a game) gets a free win to start off.

The tournament round structure will be posted on the tournament event pages (links from the tournament system).

There is also a list of tournament rules that will be enforced.

Prizes
First place and second place awards will be given in all events.

There will also be cash prizes for first place and possibly second place in the DotA and Legion TD Mega events (not the mystery event). Please donate (if you do donate, say that you're donating for the tournament so that we add your donation to the prize pool)! The prize pool will be divided based on the team size and the number of teams competing.

Original prize pool: $100
Amount donated: $140
Current prize pool: $300 (>=$150 for the Legion TD Mega event)

Thanks to everyone who donated or will donate for making this tournament possible!

Yes, it is.
Any kind of cheating is forbidden and will be punished with an exclusion from the tournament.

Games are hosted on our servers in Atlanta. You should play several games on the bots (the us/ca bots) before registering for the tournament. The tournament is intended for teams in North America. If both teams agree to host somewhere else then that's okay.

Your team is registered. You do still need to submit the players on your team. You can either do this by posting in this section or adding them yourself. To add them yourself, either use ENT Link to validate their accounts or tell them to register forum accounts and then activate their accounts themselves; for the latter option, you then should invite them to your team by entering their name into the manage registration page.
