Soldier Turris 1on1 Cup & Pyro Paintball 3on3 Cup: Rule change & schedule

Due to more requests about changing the winmode of the Turris Cup we decided to add an additional timelimit of 30 which will take place from Round 3 onwards.

If no one reached 4 points after 30 minutes, the player with the higher score wins. If the match is tied after the timelimit is over, it will continue with a Golden Cap rule – next captured point decides the winner.

Please also have in mind both cups are running with a strict 1-week-rhythmus. A single round consists of 7 days and always ends on Wednesdays at 23:59 CEST. Contact your opponent early to ease scheduling. Best method to get in contact is adding a match comment and clicking the Challenge Box.

Dates

  • Round 2 – Match Deadline: Wednesday, 8th July, 23:59 CEST
  • Round 3 – Match Deadline: Wednesday, 15th July, 23:59 CEST
  • Quarter Finals – Match Deadline: Wednesday, 22th July, 23:59 CEST

    please read again angel, its very clearly pointed out
    “The playoff phase will be skipped except for position deciders if two teams are tied in points.”

    What still need an explanation is the number of relegated to promoted teams:
    atm:
    relegated div1 teams: 3 – promoted div2 teams: 4
    relegated div2 teams: 4 – promoted div3 teams: 8
    relegated div3 teams: 12 – promoted div4 teams: 18
    relegated div4 teams: 18 – promoted div5 teams: 24
    relegated div5 teams: 18 – promoted div6 teams: 24

    so every division will be larger than 10 teams next season
    if not enough teams drop and dont come back

    * Silver tournament
    * Teams from sup-top (division 2 and 3)
    * Media coverage of final matches
    * Grand hardware prizes (headsets, graphics cards, etc)
    * No top teams allowed

    So. we’ve got nothing. Where is the “grand” hardware price?

    At least, we want a headset and graphic cards as promised.

    Thx
