We are excited to present the first CTF tournament in quite a while. The CTF scene in Sweden have been asleep since 2005 when the last tournament was played (despite some more or less fruitless attempts to get it going). During 2021, a couple of old ctf players returned from the dead and began to play again, and soon found out that some of their old fellow running mates from back in the days were still active in the deathmatch scene. Since then, CTF have slowly came alive again, and even though it is still a small community, the games are intense and are getting more crowded.

This tournament will be a one-evening blast and hopefully showcast for a larger crowd what CTF really is about: teamplay, lightning fast captures, strong defenses and blitzering duels when speed meets aim. A follow-up tournament is on the drawing board, thought to start in September.

Format

  • Round-robin group stage into a final between top two teams
  • 4v4 or 3v3 matchups depending on attendance
  • 10 min matches
  • Each game will be 2 or 3 rounds
  • Map selection to be determined
  • We will try to balance teams fairly

Exact format will be updated closer by depending on attedance, but below will work as an guidance until then.

Signups

Signup no later than May 5 in the channel #ctf-showdown-16th-of-may in our Discord, or directly to one of the admins. Teams will be disclosed shortly thereafter so you have time to practice with your team.

Skill requirement

None! We encourage you to join and see what it is all about! We can give assistance on maps and config settings (hook, droprune et al), and we play regulary on sundays/mondays/wednesdays which is a perfect time to improve your skills.

If you want to play with certain players, you are welcome to do that. Just let us know who!
