With absolutely zero restrictions in place, this is our most competitive regular tournament open to everyone and anyone good enough to win is entitled to all the fame and honour it brings!!

If you are a caster or an organiser who would like to help in some way to this event by casting the games or helping organise the brackets, please send the Head Admin Paroxysm a pm here with the following application info.

Please note that your application is also a representation of your commitment as a potential staff member on the site. If you submit short one word answers it wouldn't give us the impression you would do your staff duties with much effort too, but at the same time its best to be clear and concise with your application and not give overly long answers.
