The Tiberian Dawn Dusk to Dawn Tournament
Posted: Sun Jun 12, 2022 3:13 pm
Kane smiles on us this day. We got TDGL coming back yes, but what we really need is a Dark TD Tournament! We've got 15 dark maps from the depths awaiting to receive the technology of peace!
Well the truth is this tournament is a little bit different. The first Dark Tournament was lighthearted and whimsical. Maps were silly, there were creeps to get in the way and the general feel of it was more relaxed. The ones that came after were more competitively aligned. While some maps did have some shenanigans it was always pretty straight forward balanced game play.
This tournament is also more competitive. There may or may not be unusual challenges on maps but every map is fair. As always, your MCV will point in the direction towards tib. Additionally this tournament has one other key feature that separates it from the previous dark tournaments. This is a best of 3 tournament with a bit of a catch. You're going to play the same map all 3 times in each match up. The first time the lights will be off. e.g classic TDT style. Shroud/fog will be on and it will be up you to scout. The 2nd game will have shroud turned off and fog on e.g. a standard game. If you lost the first game because you failed to locate the next tib field now is your chance to prove it was just a fluke. The 3rd game will be back with shroud back on. If a match up goes to 3 games both players should have a decent idea of the map.
Hopefully we'll get at least 1 streamer to cover the games. If not I'll pop open a stream and you all can hear full volume blackened for once.
Standard lobby rulesets(with the exception of shroud) will be used.
7500 starting credits
Stealth deliveries
Crates off
etc.
Orb's DR5 balance patch will be utilized as well.
July 9th with a 1700 utc start time.
Please feel free to reply here/discord/pm to sign up as well as suggest which date works better for you. The first 16 players will have a guaranteed spot Though if we magically hit 32 players we can double down on the maps. There's always the possibility of adding in more spots based on the amount of sign ups. Besides I hear rumors that there's even more than 15 dark maps.
Good luck commanders!
