TAW@WAR - 24 October Updated - 4 DAYS TO GO

G'Day Everyone,

The Fall 2020 TAW@WAR is about to begin! Be ready to dominate 24 October (EU @ 20:00 CEST) (NA @ 8:00pm CST). This year we are fortunate enough to have two simultaneous TAW@WAR’s - 1 EU & 1 NA. That's right… you officially have no excuse to miss this event!

What is TAW@WAR? A TAW-Wide Tournament for members to participate and determine who is a gaming champion amongst all participating members! To insure no one has an advantage, the battlefield will be wiped clean as a non-TAW game will be selected; specifically a game that is F2P and PvP based. Along with bragging rights, the winner(s) also receive the coveted TAW-Wide Tournament Medal. This medal is exclusive as it is only awarded to two people or teams per YEAR. The Commander in Chief of TAW will present the medal to you directly, accompanied with the 5-star line shared with all other CIC awarded medals.

This fall, the selected game is…brawlhalla!  Brawlhalla: History's greatest warriors brawl to prove who's the best in an epic test of strength and skill. These slugfests are salted with powerful weapons and gadgets. Every weapon you pick up changes your style of play. it is a free 2D platform fighting game. Absolutely no Pay-to-Win. The event will be streamed on twitch.com/TAWTV. Teams are divided into a 2v2 single elimination matches in a bracket style; which means the team that wins best 2 out of 3 will move on to the next round. The Team or Single sign-up is NOW OPEN.

Practices may begin 1 October! Please do not start until then :)

“Battle is the most magnificent competition in which a human being can indulge. It brings out all that is best; it removes all that is base. All men are afraid in battle. The coward is the one who lets his fear overcome his sense of duty. Duty is the essence of manhood." - George S. Patton
