Join Restrictions

To take part in the 1on1 beta cup, all you need are a DoW2 Windows Live ID and your steam name added to the ESL site.
For the team cups, you need to upload a logo for your team too, but that's not that hard. This is all explained below.

These cups are open to everyone from around the globe. So from Ireland to New Zealand, anyone who might be awake for the cup is free to sign up.

Matches may be LiveCasted

One of Patch 1.4's big triumphs is that observer mode has finally been added. This gives us an oppurtunity to get games livecasted!

With this in mind, we've set up a livestreaming channel called dow2live. Popular shoutcasters, such as ITSEXYTIME and Lord Lokgar have already declared an interest in this, but we need more! If you want to get recognition/practice/flamed as a caster, drop us a line.

We haven't started yet, though, so it's just blank

Prizes

We're happy to announce that the winner of the 3on3 beta cup will receive 3 months worth of a Ventrilo server! Vent is the perfect place to talk to your teamm8s in proper quality. If you're used to in game chat, then you've been missing out! The ventrilo server will only be available if 12 teams or more sign up for the cup though.

And all beta cups have the following prize:

2nd Place 2 Months

1st Place 3 Months

3rd Place 1 Month
