**NOTE: SIGN UPS EXTENDED UNTIL THURSDAY, JULY 27!**
I am pleased to announce the first installment of The Dam Tournament. This is a 2v2 tournament open to players of all skill levels. (Handbook is here. Discord server is here.)
Teams will be sorted by skill into different divisions (of eight teams each), and each division will be broken into two groups (of four teams each). Play will proceed in two stages. Stage one — the group stage — will be three weeks long, and will use a GSL-style format to determine which two teams from each stage advance to stage two. Stage two — the playoff stage — will be four weeks long, and will use a double elimination format. All together, this will be a seven-week tournament.
There is no prize pool for this first installment.
