This is a five versus five Fortress cup tournament, but with a cash reward! All teams are required a small entry fee of €1.5 (PayPal conversion) to qualify, but with an extra €50 to the pot included by myself to increase the reward money. Just like a regular Fortress knock-out tournament/cup, it will take place in one evening. Each team will be matched up randomly against another team. The winning team will move onto the next round, the losers will be knocked-out of the tournament. Eventually only two teams will have surpassed them all to reach the final match. If all teams sign up, this will be in total €62 reward money to the winning team.
  
If all teams sign up, this will be in total €62 to the winning team. Only eight team slots available to keep server reliability.

*If in the unfortunate event that we do not have eight teams signed up by closing date, we may change the date if all entered teams agree if not refund entry fee's.
