Ninth legion Gaming proudly presents the IXL Open.

We wanted to put on a tournament that can increase skill level and awareness of the many talented players there are in this part of the globe. With this in mind we have geared the IXLO with a greater emphasis on player preparation and execution to defeat their opponents. Hopefully the 2 day format and the BO5 finals can lend itself to some competitive and exciting games while providing the players with a smooth gaming experience overall as a priority.
