So the core metagames get SPL, the official metagames get Exhibition, but what about those of us who are still OMs? Well, they almost get Exhibition... or rather, they get Almost Exhibition! You'll be signing up as a team of three people and each week you'll be facing one other team in a set consisting of Anything Goes, 1v1 Bo5, and ZeroUsed, where the winning teams is the one that takes 2 out of the 3 games.

Tournament Rules:

• This tour will be played by teams of three in Anything Goes, 1v1 Bo5, and ZeroUsed.
• The team that wins two out of the three games in a week will move on to the next round.
• The tournament is single elimination.
• Replays are not required but it is preferred they are posted.
• General tournament rules can be found here.

Alright, finals tied so we're doing it over. For this one, to bring us better odds of not having to do it all over again, if the teams tie but one of them wins 4 out of the 9 games (aka wins 3-0 and loses 2-1), they win finals. After all, no other team would be able to match them, let alone do better than them. Good luck and have fun.
