The venue is equipped with the following:
  • a Nintendo Switch dock at every station, each equipped with locks and LAN adapters
  • Hardwired setups via Cat5e
    • Gigabit switch with a 300d/300u FIOS connection
  • 20+ BenQ RL2455HM (1ms) gaming monitors
  • 4 Turtle Beach TM-1 mixers
    • For easy team communication as well as game audio on 1 feed
    • audio y-splitters so you can easily connect your own headset or use one of ours
If that isn't enough to entice you to come check it out, we also run a professional grade live stream (Watch Live on Twitch).

Draft Tournaments:
  • Players will register with the TO and indicate their highest achieved ranks in each game mode
    • We'll also document your preferred weapons
  • The highest ranked players will be selected as captains.
    • In the event we have more eligible captains than we need, we may randomly select captains
    • Example: If we have 8 players we'll need 2 captains. If we have 4, X ranked players we'll select 2 using a method of our choosing
  • Captains will then take turns drafting players for their team following the snake draft format
  • If there are not enough players to run 4v4 we will lower team size and set 3 players per team.
Snake Draft:
In a snake draft, each team has one pick per round and the picks go in a specific predetermined order. After a round is over, the following round is in the reverse order of the previous round. For example, if you pick first in an odd-numbered round, then you pick last in the even-numbered rounds.

Post-Draft Procedure:
After the draft has concluded, members of each team will be able to privately discuss their battle plan along with a brief period to practice together before we begin.

Bracket Type:
We'll typically shoot for a round robin but if there are an odd number of teams (beyond 7) we'll use a double elimination format.
