DBNation's Proving Grounds #6!


(dukemaroon) #1

Greeting Dirty Bombers,

It’s that time again – underdogs, lock and load. We’re about to #playdirty.

3rd July 2016 will be Proving Ground #6, where the newcomers of the competitive scene battle it out and rise above the rest.

This ain’t in the shallows anymore, scrub, you’re swimming with the big fish now, and you’d better get used to it… ‘Cuz next comes the sharks!

On Sunday the 3rd of July we will be hosting a single elimination bo3 tournament.

Prizes
1st place: 30k credits, 1 Elite Case A+B
2nd place: 25k credits, 1 Elite Case B
3rd place: 20k credits, 2 Expert Cases
4th place: 15k credits, 1 Expert Case

That means that we’ll be prohibiting certain teams/competitors from participating. The following list is generated from DBN performance from the Open Cups performances:

fE
SoloQ
Run and Pack
t>
wimpy
LPS
d92
HERO

The players on these teams will be unable to participate, substitute, or partake in the Proving Grounds events.

It’s important that the players of these teams also realize that we’re not forgetting about you! With this separation we’re trying to give the newcomers room to move, play, and compete. But let’s not forget that your dedication to the game, drive to win, and passion are what drive the community, and your understanding of this ruling and this particular list is greatly appreciated.

The event will start at:

  • 10am PDT
  • 1pm EDT
  • 6pm BST
  • 7pm CEST

Can’t see why my team is not allowed… in 2 proving ground cups we got 2nd place once and eliminated first round once, and in 2 open cups we got 4th and 2nd place each time. Never even won anything. If it’s about having a bunch of former Tapout players, 2 of them were only subbing for the last cup.

There are DB players in Asia and Oceana too; that’s why there are players like THUNDA carpet bombing the forum. I’d do it too, but I feel like dropping the bomb on the makers of Unreal Engine.

Instead of just wishing luck start signing up some teams peeps! :wink:

Hope everyone has a jolly good time there, I swear one day I’m able to re-gather our sorry bunch of misfits again to play and suck.

Losing the “grand final” NA vs EU to fE means we got 2nd place, no?


(neverplayseriou) #8

Nope, they counted you as the winning team in the na :stuck_out_tongue:

My favorite part of this is that you still list SoloQ
