The sdCup is a premier weekend tournament featuring a hefty prize pool and top class talent. It encourages even pings allowing for the entire world to participate online in epic weekend bouts between the best players out there.

All players are required to be present on the QuakeWorld Discord in the channel #sdCup before the tournament begins.

Start Time

Saturday (and Sunday if needed), 23rd of January, 14:00 CET (8:00 AM ET, 00:00 AEDT)

Prize pool

$2,000.00 (USD) are spread among the players as seen below:

Place Prize (USD) Winner
1st $1,000.00 TBD tbd
2nd $650.00 TBD tbd
3rd $350.00 TBD tbd


Broadcast Talent

Hosts:

  • Sweden Andeh

Maps

dm2 dm4 dm6 aerowalk ztndm3
Dm2 Dm4 Dm6 Aerowalk Ztndm3

Rules

  • 10 min duels with 3 min overtime
  • All rounds are BO5
  • Ruleset: smackdown/qcon

Servers

This is a world wide tournament, meaning you might have to play games on a higher ping than you're used to. Strive for fair pings, but use this as a general rule of thumb:

  • East coast NA vs EU = Ireland
  • West coast NA vs EU = New York
  • AU vs EU = India
  • AU vs NA = Los Angeles
  • BR vs AU = Los Angeles
  • BR vs EU/NA = Miami


If you can find a server with lower pings for both of you, I strongly suggest you use that one! This is just a general rule of thumb and not a requirement, however striving for as equal pings as possible is mandatory. Use cl_delaypacket to even out the pings up to a maximum of 155ms.

Rules

Start time

Saturday (and Sunday if needed), 23rd of January, 14:00 CET (8:00 AM ET, 00:00 AEDT)

All players are required to be present on the QuakeWorld Discord: http://discord.quake.world/ in the channel "sdCup" before the tournament begins.


Format

  • Single Elimination 1on1
  • 10 min duels with 3 min overtime
  • All rounds are BO5
  • Ruleset: smackdown/qcon
  • No map repeats


Allowed clients and rulesets:

To avoid any confusion, the only allowed client is EzQuake (www.nquake.com / www.ezquake.com) version 3.2.2+ (If you for some reason are using a 3.5alpha version of EzQuake, make sure it is an alpha18 release or higher to avoid bugs).

The only allowed rulesets are "qcon" and "smackdown". Make sure to do f_checks before the game starts.


Game settings

  • This should not come as any surprise, but regular 1on1 settings apply.
  • 1on1
  • DMM3
  • No powerups


Maps

The map pool is the good old the big 5 - dm2, dm4, dm6, aerowalk and ztndm3. If both players agree, they can decide to play the 2020 remakes of these 5 maps by Dirtbox.

There are no map repeats. Using a lower-seed-picks-first system.

Example:

   Lower seed picks 1st map
   Higher seed picks 2nd map
   Lower seed picks 3rd map
   Higher seed picks 4th map
   If necessary, the last remaining map is played.


Reporting

One game per round will be streamed on https://www.twitch.tv/suddendeathTV, along with, depending on the amount of sign-ups, all Semi Finals, Bronze Game and Grand Finals.
