Historically hosted by Team Juggernauts and barcafan (later Palestich), Crown is being reborn in epic fashion! A favorite was using one class per round in a Bo3 deck lock per round and not being able to use that class for the remainder of the tournament, this format is being revamped for a truly amazing qualifying event.
As a qualifying event, a 500SC sign-up fee will be administered. If you play all your matches after sign-up, you will be rewarded with 5 LL packs as a participation prize (a discount of 50SC per pack).
Sign-ups will complete Thu April 6th at 0 GMT and first Round brackets posted then.
