It will be followed by a second qualifier on October 26 andthe main event on October 27.
Nickmercs and his team explained that the latter two dates may be subject to change.
MFAM Gauntlet’s Format and Prizes
The qualifier will take place across four private lobbies and a total of 80 teams – 20 for each lobby. Each team will play three games before the standings are revealed. The five best teams from each lobby will then advance to the second round where they will play two games among themselves. The top 2 teams will proceed to the main Nickmercs MFAM Gauntlet event.
The best-performing team from the qualifier will get a $4,750 share from the prize pool and will advance to the main tournament. The other teams that rank among the 10 best will all get some prizes that range between $2,400 for the second place and $150 for the sixth to tenth place.
The rating of a team will be determined by both that team’s place in the standings and its total number of kills. Each kill will add up to a team’s performance, urging players to actively participate in the shootouts for extra points.
