With the success of the High-Tide One-Night Cup in July, we have decided to put on a Halloween Crit or Treat! One-Night Cup on the big night itself, Saturday 31st October. The format will run analogous to the High-Tide cup with a four-team group round robin followed by a final round to determine the podium positions.

In spirit of the festivities, we’ll be playing Halloween maps and will have spells enabled throughout. After an informal consultation with a number of players, we have decided to disable two spells by default: MONOCULUS and Meteor. The rest are fair game! To enable this, please use the correct configs for each round, listed below. If both teams agree in writing to allow all spells, the standard Highlander configs may be used to enable all spells.

The foulest mercs from across the land
Fight the Horseless Headless Horsemann
While fiery freights fall from the sky
Avoid the lasers or you’ll be fried
And though you fight with arcane spells
Your body’s but fresh meat
But no mere mortal can resist
Signing up for Crit or Treat!

Schedule

The group stage is complete and the Playoffs are here!
Tiebreaker details and the list of teams advancing can be found below.
Check out your upcoming Playoff fixtures under the Playoffs tab or directly on your team page.

If you find yourself on the list of these teams you are expected to be available. If you fail to provide information, or it is insufficient, we will have to decide your match dates for you. Keep in mind that we will try and accommodate both teams, but the match date may still vary from your provided days if for example none of the days matches with your opponent’s, but your opponent offered more days than you did. Deadlines listed for the matches are flexible and may be changed in certain situations if admins are contacted about allowing extensions on these.
