PRIZE POOL

ENDGAME CIRCUIT

This tournament will be part of the 2015 EndGame Cicuit. The EndGame circuit is a series of 3 tournaments played from month to month. The Circuit acts as qualifiers to Splatoon's first league, the EndGame Splatoon Premier League (eSPL). The winner of each tournament will gain an invite to the premier league of Splatoon's top 8 teams, where they play in weekly, casted matches to determine the best teams around. More information regarding the 2015 EndGame Circiut and the eSPL can be found in this thread.




EndGame has established itself in its first year as a major tournament provider in the competitive Mario Kart community. The Mario Kart World Cup, held for the second time in 2015, featured top players in Mario Kart Wii and Mario Kart 8 and reached the front page of Twitch, becoming the most visible competitive MK tournament to date. Building on our past experience in online tournaments as well as new staff, EndGame is ready to branch out into the world of Inkopolis!


Our goal is to bring a professionally organized tournament to the Splatoon scene and to promote its overall development.




If you have any questions at all regarding tournament setup, rules, or other information, please join the discord server. A TO will get to you as soon as possible.

So I just made a PayPal but sadly I have to wait 6-8 days for a money transfer into that account. Is there another form of payment method like debit/visa or visa??

13 teams have signed up, with some of them needing to submit payments. We're expecting many to join in the next 2 days. :)

As for your payment issues, unfortunately there is no other way. PM us and we can work something out!
