The Kickoff tournament series final is here. 3 players from each of the 4 public tournaments, plus the 4 invited players will battle it out in a 16 man tournament for the prize.
The kickoff tour started in January and each of the 4 public tournaments had close to a 100 players. The top 3 from each tournament have qualified for the final. It was initially announced that it would be a best of 3 tournament with losers brackets and a best of five final. Due to some time constraints and other difficulties we have decided not to have losers brackets however. First prize: the Razer Copperhead mouse.
