The Wizards Trial

The Wizards Trial is a monthly tournament series hosted by Illuzion Gaming, featuring separate tournaments for NA and EU.

Format

• Double Elimination
• Winners R1 is Bo1, rest is Bo3
• Map one in a series is chosen by a banning phase back and forth until only one map is left. Higher seed bans first.
• After map 1, the losing team chooses the next map. You cannot play the same map twice in a series.
• Higher seed hosts game 1 (Unless both teams agree on a specific host with the best setup). Losing team hosts next game.
• Team comps are chosen through a draft app. https://gig-draft.com/ <- for now. With the higher seed picking first.
  • Mirrors are allowed.
  • Each team gets one ban.
• Players from any region are allowed to play in both NA and EU however the host of the lobby must always correlate to the region of that tournament.
• The top 3 teams qualify for The Wizards Summer Invitational on 8/3 (NA) and 8/10 (EU) that will have a prize pool in a small bo5 tournament featuring top level qualified teams.
  • In order to claim at least 3 of the players from the qualified team need to be on the roster in the invitational.
• Due to current bugs:
  • Roland has to use slug shot build path

  • Anyone seen using a bugged build, with proof, will have to forfeit that map.
