Please note—this is a Fightcade tournament open to North Americans only. Due to high ping, you will not be permitted to enter if you do not reside in the US, Canada, or Mexico.

TOURNAMENT FORMAT

This is going to be a 4 on 4 Survivor Series style elimination match. Each player creates a team of 4 characters. They can choose one character apiece from the different tier lists.
  • Top tier - Liu Kang, Mileena, Jax
  • High Mid - Kung Lao, Kitana, Shang
  • Low Mid - Raiden, Scorpion, Baraka
  • Low - Cage, Sub Zero, Reptile
From there, the players start with their lowest-tiered character. If they lose, they are forced to move up to the next tier level. The match ends when the entire team is knocked out.
  • You may switch between characters within the same tier level as long as you continue to win matches.
  • You can create an entirely new team when facing a different opponent.
  • Morphing into top tier as Shang Tsung is prohibited.
GENERAL RULES
  • Double elimination
  • All participants must access Fightcade or the MK2 Outer Haven Discord server for bracket information.
  • If the connection breaks, both players must restart the match with the same characters (prior round win is omitted). If the breaking connection is suspicious, like breaking right before a victory, then report the match for investigation.
  • If you are currently banned from the Kombat Network, you cannot enter the tournament.
DISQUALIFICATIONS
  • All participants will have a 10-minute grace period to show up in the Fightcade chat room at the start of the tournament. If the player has not arrived by then, they will be sent to the Losers bracket or DQd, depending on where they are in the tournament.
  • Voluntarily quitting in the middle of a match (except for a one-time lag exception), any suspicious activity (impersonation), or anything else deemed inappropriate or unsportsmanlike is grounds for disqualification.
  • If you use Shang Tsung and accidentally morph into top tier, you forfeit that particular ROUND. If a top-tier morph happens again at any time throughout the tournament, Shang Tsung is declared dead, and the player must move to the next tier level.
  • If you trigger the Smoke battle, you forfeit the entire match.

Ideally I would like to do these tournaments every one to two months. So yes, we will definitely be having future events Beyond this one. Your services would definitely be welcome!

By the way in case anyone is curious as to why I'm not participating in the matches, I will be traveling on business and I can't run fightcade off a work laptop for obvious reasons. I'll just be running the brackets and making sure everything is going smoothly.
