QLAN!

QLAN is hosting another open Starcraft 2 Tournament on March 30th!

This tournament will be open to all players in the Queen's community. Registration will start after reading week and a registration payment will be collected at a few times before as well as at the event, with precise details to follow. 
This will be a 1v1 tournament with cash and prizes for the top placing players in each skill bracket. Depending on interest, it is very likely that the tournament will be split into three brackets: bronze-silver, gold-platinum and diamond-masters on the Blizzard ladder. 
Rules and map pool will be released soon - make a note in this event for any specific maps or improvements you would like to see - expect similar rules to previous events. 
Please direct your tournament related questions here or to QLAN admins, and stay tuned for more updates! =D
