Crown 2017 - A WC 2017 Qualifying Event - Sponsored by Team Juggernauts

[Juggernauts]

Historically hosted by Team Juggernauts and barcafan (later Palestich), Crown has been reborn in epic fashion! A fan favorite format, one class is used per round and then is banned for the remainder of the tournament, this format has been revamped for a truly amazing qualifying event. After a successful return last year, Crown is back again, and better than ever!

Sign-ups will complete July 20th @ 23:59 GMT-0 and first Round brackets will be posted then.
