Introduction
Welcome to the first iteration of Regional Rumble! The goal of this tournament is to introduce the community to the players within their region and allow them to compete on the world stage!
Note: This tournament will be run within the brand-new Regional Rumble Discord Server, so be sure to join the server to to get the latest tournament information. This server also serves as a general hub, allowing community members from across the world to find players that share a region together. If you are interested in participating in wars and tournaments with fellow players from your region, this is where you can find your teammates!
Overview
We will be running
two separate tournaments for the community to enjoy: one for the
American community and one for the
European community. This will be done to prevent the tournament from dragging on and to better manage the skill balance between teams.
Both tournaments will commence with a Group Draw (date TBD) and both tournaments will begin proper on October 7th.
American teams can expect to play in one of
five groups with
six teams each.
European teams can similarly expect to play in one of
six groups with
six teams each. These are
subject to change with the number of sign-ups. All teams will begin in the
Group Stage, lasting for three weeks, and teams that advance from the Group Stage will face off in the
Playoff Bracket Stage in the final weekend(s) until a champion is crowned.
All matches, with the exception of the Finals, are
Best of 1.
American matches will take place on
Friday EDT nights at
9:00pm and
10:00pm EDT, while
European matches will take place on
Friday CEST nights at
21:00 and
22:00 CEST.
