Yeah you want to hit rank 0, basically tier 0.

On what platform will this be on? And what are the rules, time limits etc.? I'm not a very good player but I'd love to play

We're still discussing the timings.

 

[elite agent]

My 2 cents would be that it shouldn't be longer than 10 mins.

Now I know what to prepare if I get matched against you.

15 +10s? mmh why not some blitz 3+2?

 

[elite agent]

15 +10s? mmh why not some blitz 3+2?

I think that would be a little bit too fast; we might have beginners who may find that a little too hectic. But yeah 15+10 is a little too slow I agree.

At this point in time we have received enough applicants and have closed the sign ups.

If you signed up, you should be receiving a discord PM from me soon about being invited to the tournament discord. This is where we will coordinate the tournament and also clarify the rules/time format.

Thank you to everyone who signed up and good luck!
