Title: Mage's Merry Tournament!
Post by: FML|Mage on January 02, 2014, 05:04:32 pm
:FMLN:

Unlike Worpex I am not Ebenezer Scrooge, nor would I ever start a tournament called the "Bah Humbug" tournament.  Instead my tournament will be filled with merriment, joy, and tidings of the new year!  Oh, and our second spot in Season 18.  Yeah, that bit might be what interests everyone a bit more.

This tournament will be run a little bit differently, no need to sign up.  Just show up, and you'll be placed in a match.  The first 16 people that show up get in.  Simple as that.

In addition I (and maybe Worpex if I bug him enough) will be live casting parts of the tournament so everyone should bring their A game and make these matches interesting. 

The most exciting part though is that we will be playing a brand new map designed specifically for the FFA Masters League by :USA: Normalice! 

Said map is called Crystal Cliffs and it's fantastic!  Expect to be seeing this map quite a bit in the future, and if you want to get a leg up on the competition it can be downloaded below.

The tournament will be held Sunday January 5th at 12:00 EST / 18:00 CET / 21:00 MSK

It will be in the next bot rotation, but I don't believe the next rotation is scheduled for a few weeks from now.

As Worp said, it will be on the PlayFFA bot during the next map pool update. It will also be heavily featured in FML going forward so expect to see quite a bit of it and have lots of opportunities to play it.

Clan FML on East or Masters League Room on GGC if you only have Garena.  We'll be hosting it through a bot so won't matter where you join from.

Have you ever tried a map with 10 goldmines or something similar? at both 4ways, and 3ways there would be uneven mines, and I would think people cant sit and hoard?

Players make long threeways, not maps.  STOP WITH THE GAY SMALL MAPS.

Yes we have, in fact I think Death Bayou is designed specifically with that in mind.  It should certainly help, to an extent though it is just about the players and how they play =/
