YJos Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 I want to confirm something, once i qualify i can't play the other tournaments? In other invitational editions the host explicitly said that you couldn't play once you qualified, but this is not the case, i don't see that rule anywhere @Parke Link to comment

In other invitational editions the host explicitly said that you couldn't play once you qualified, but this is not the case, i don't see that rule anywhere @Parke Correct. It's encouraged that you play the other tournaments after you qualify as you get points still which go towards your seat position in the final tournament. Link to comment
YJos Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 17 minutes ago, Parke said: Correcto. Se recomienda que juegues otros torneos después de clasificarte, ya que aún obtendrás puntos que te servirán para conseguir tu asiento en el torneo final. Then i can continue playing for a chance to face someone who is lower on the leaderboard, is that correct? Parke and TohnR 2 Link to comment

Jgaw Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Those who already won tournaments don't need to prove their skills nor to win points to play against lower in ladder, théy are already skilled and talented As well 700rp won't make any real différence Don't be greedy and let noobs win some invites 😁😏 Link to comment

The whole reason I made it this way is because I want the best of the best players in the format to play in the final tournament, banning those players from playing takes that away and adds some "free wins" to the final bracket which I dont like. I want it to be competitive. It's still possible to qualify even if youre making it to round 3/4 most weeks. Link to comment
Parke Posted January 8 Author Share Posted January 8 Week 3 is behind us now! Congrats to @OrangeManiac for winning your invite this week. There's a few guys on 6/7 points now, so I'm expecting we could see a few people secure their spots next week also! Live leaderboard is also updated on the original post.

PrinceAdjahni Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Do I only qualify if I get to 10 points or can I qualify based on where my points position me at the end of all the weeks? Link to comment

Correct, you only qualify if you get 10 points. There's 5 weeks of qualifiers left. 9 hours ago, Jgaw said: Believe me every DuBz player in the game is very talented, i played against em all All players Who always play are great It s all about match up and rng Good luck all I'm aware. I've got a long long period of experience myself, I know theres lots of great players. But you only need 1-2 good runs from 16 tours essentially really to guarentee qualification. That's not alot at all. TohnR 1 Link to comment
