Yay for eSports! Two things I want to quickly highlight for people who can't read (isn't that everyone on the internet these days?), firstly the server was moved from our previous announcement to be on NA. This is because some pros are having trouble with SEA ping atm.

Secondly, you must physically check in before 11.00 am aest. This is so we can have a game ready to go for the stream on time and so that we can remove people from the brackets before they are generated, because walkovers are killing eSports :P.
