As CS:GO continues to grow at our event, we are pleased to confirm that Unikrn has also provided their very kind support to the epic.EIGHTEEN CS:GO tournament, joining with already confirmed CRISPsrv.
Thanks to their support, we will be boosting the prize pool for the event to the maximum £3000 guaranteed, broken down as:
We will also be making improvements to our CS:GO coverage to improve the experience for everyone watching at home too.
As always here at epic.LAN, those prizes are paid out on the day of the finals, no waiting for your funds.
Our friends over at be quiet! have once again offered their kind support, this time it's for the 3v3 Rocket League fun tournament at epic.EIGHTEEN.
The winning team will take home:
The Rocket League tournament is open to anyone at the event, however if you are already taking part in another eSports tournament, you must have been eliminated from that tournament before the Rocket League signups close in order to take part. If you are still actively participating in another eSports tournament you cannot take part in this one due to scheduling conflicts.
If you want to take part, go and sign up now!
More fun tournament announcements coming over the next week or so as we count down to LAN.
For the second event in a row this year, epic.EIGHTEEN has sold out. We wont be adding in any more rooms or squeezing more people in to the space we have at this stage. You may see spare seats on the seating plan, but these have all been paid for just not selected yet by the ticket holder.
We will therefore have a waiting list for any cancellation tickets that may arise.
The February epic.LAN event saw our biggest CSGO tournament to date, and fresh off the back of its success we're excited to announce our first tournament sponsor, quality game server providers, CRISPsrv.
Thanks to their kind support, the tournament will now launch with a minimum guaranteed £1k prize pool as we seek to grow on the numbers seen in February.
To make sure you're in with a chance of winning, grab your ticket now to epic.EIGHTEEN and then go and sign up for your tournament slot.
