Prior to the start of Guild Season 10 on August 29, we’ll be hosting the first-ever Offseason Crystal Tournament! All teams who win Level 9 during Season 9 are invited to participate, with valuable prizes at stake.
Here are the details which have been confirmed:
GENERAL INFO
- The Tournament will take place on the weekend of August 22-23. If there are many teams participating, then the first part of the Tournament will run on Saturday and the final part on Sunday. If there are fewer teams, then it will be held all in one day. Participants are advised to keep both days free until further notice
- Battles will be full loot and players will have to bring their own gear
- Matches will run on shorter timers to provide more flexibility on match slot times. Specific times will be allocated to the teams prior to each match. Teams should be prepared to play matches back-to-back if so required
STRUCTURE
While the full details on the tournament structure (group stage, double elimination, best-of-three etc) will be finalized and announced once the actual number of participating teams have been determined, the following will apply:
From the start of the tournament until the top four teams are determined
- Level 4 IP cap (1200)
Semi-finals (top four teams)
- Level 9 IP cap (1700)
Finals (top two teams)
- Level 9 IP cap (1700)
For all matches, each round won delivers Level 3 off-season rewards.
RULES
- Participants have to use the same team (same character) that played in the Season 9 Crystal League Level 9 match on August 9
- Each team can allocate one substitute in total for the entire Tournament
