Introducing the first tournament for the worldwide worst players of AoC.
Idea is simple: a popular, entertaining 16 players mini-tournament where AoC enthousiasts can laugh their arse off and forget about Nations Cup a bit. It will use Balance Mod with UP, hence will be played full random civilizations as it makes all civs "equal in overall strength".
Matchups for 1v1 BO3s of Friday 9th/Saturday 10th/Sunday 11th revealed. Streamed onto Voobly channels! Tune in to win a Voobly Premium!

The 8 winners of these exhibition matches will be randomly assigned in four 1v1's within them.

Friday 9th/Saturday 10th/Sunday 11th: The BO3's
Who will play who here. Players, please use this link to schedule!
Between 13:00 GMT AND 20:00 GMT, within player disponibilities.
First game randomed from SY_Map_Pack_v3_Final, second game losers free map pick, and third game winners free map pick.
The eight winners of 1v1's will access to the second day, the eight losers will [linethru]be hanged by the pen[/linethru] quit the tournament.
Saturday 17th
2v2 de la muerte
To schedule between 13 and 14 GMT.
In the 2v2 de la muerte where adaptation will be crucial to stay in NAoC, viewers will choose the map to complicate the life of the contestants even more (choose Metropolis or Double Ara please 11). As there is eight players remaining, there will be two 2v2 de la muerte. They will be randomly assigned either on:
- 2v2, viewers pick map, Turbo mode. Random teams, fast Speed.
- 2v2, viewers pick map, King of the Hill. Random teams, fast Speed.
These games are likely to be very fast but are vital, since the four losers will quit the tournament.
Round Robinoob
Four of the world's finest noobs remaining. They will all play one game between each other, in the format of 1v1 SY_Map_Pack.
Time for the Round Robinoob.
Let's name each noob A, B, C and D. Matches will be:
A vs B, A vs C, A vs D, B vs C, B vs D and C vs D.
So six 1v1's to be sheduled, as you can each noob will play three games. The two warriors who will win the most games* will after one well deserved day of rest go to the ultimate challenge... the Clash of the Noobs.
*in case of a tie between 2 players which is very unlikely, a 1v1 Hun War on SY_Dry_Arabia will be played
Sunday 18th
Clash of the Noobs
A 1v1 BO9 between the two finalists, with a great map selection.
Because the title of BEST NOOB OF THE WORLD needs to be deserved.

The first finalist to score five points wins the Noobs of AoC tournament!
- What will win the winner of the contest?
Us noobs are not greedy bastards like our expert counterparts. The winner will only take with him the title of greatest noob of the year, beautiful AoCZone and Voobly badges "#1 NAoC" will be crafted for him, he will get a Gold Voobly Membership for one year to promote the noobiness in the 10 first rooms of Voobly, and a one-year ban immunity on AoCZone to push trolling into the next level*.
*If _PkZ_ accepts, but as he won't, three hours of training with FeAge or Hasan to finally make you pass the 1600 bar.
The 2nd will win the opportunity to get an one-hour training with whack, a big name in TG scene.
