While waiting for sponsorship for the next SEASL, our popular community opens return every Wednesday night. The only sc2sea tournament with no restrictions and open to everyone, expect great games, casting and all the fantastic things you have come to expect from COs since its inception!!

Important:There will be a slight change in the format with there being a $100 prize pool final at the end of the month instead of weekly prizes so it gets linked on TL. So from now on the winner of every CO earns the awesome achievement "The People's Champion" and is directly seeded into the semi finals of the $100 tournament at the end of the month, where he will battle it out with the other 3 CO winners and semi finalists.

"The People's Champion" Achievement

Awarded to every CO winner!

All results must be reported by PM to the admins, NOT in the channel

+ [FAQ New Players READ!] +

FAQ - New players please read this before asking the admins anything.
Q) When do I begin my RoX matches?
A) Unless I have asked you to wait so I can bring the streamer/caster into the game, please begin your game(s) immediately.
For the first round, if for example the official start time is 7pm SGT but the brackets are out earlier, you can play your match first if BOTH players agree but its not mandatory. Walkovers commence 15 mins after official start time. So 7.15 for first round.

Q) I'm ready for my RoX match! Where is my opponent?
A) If the bracket hasn't been updated, it means your opponent is still in-game on his current RoX match. If you're curious and want to speed things up for yourself, you could always add your future opponents and check their match history/status.

Q) I can't find my opponent?
A) Their battle.net name and character code should be in their sc2sea.com profile, if it isn't, try finding them via the chat channel. If you have no success tracking them down, please wait 15minutes before PMing the admin as the player will only be DQed after that time.

Q) What map am I on?
A) Map list is posted at the bottom of this post. Click "Read More". To find non blizzard maps, go to create game, then enter the map name in the search box.

Q) The tournament has started, can i still join?
It is not our obligation to accommodate you but usually our admins are kind enough if you ask nicely. Try PMing the admin and if hes not too busy he will slot in you by letting you replace one of the walkovers we typically always have. Do note that your name cannot be inserted into the bracket so you have to remember to tell your opponents you have replaced that particular player in the bracket as well as the admins when reporting your results.

Q) Hey, my opponent DC'ed, but he's back online, what do I do?
A) If any disconnects occur within the first two minutes of game-play, the match will be replayed. However if the disconnect occurs after two minutes of game-time, then it is up to the discretion of the player who did not disconnect to decide whether the match will be either: A) replayed, or B) forfeited.

Q) Who reports the games? Do i need to send in my replays?
To make things easy for the players, only the winner needs to report the results. And as for replays, only the winner of the whole tournament will have to send in their replay pack.
