Don't get your hardon yet kiddies lol, we still have to come up with a way to get new people to buy the game considering thats the only way they'll be able to play now XD

As lovely as having a 40k tournament for the clans everyone already knows, that's not going to be exciting for much longer XD

Exciting yes, but I'm worried about the actual player counts come Wednesday

Yes, that is a fair point and I am curious to see the numbers as well... but you also have to realise that this tournament IS a marketing plan to not only be excited about the release for us. But for players who have even yet to try such a game... the fact that 64 teams get prize money will def be an attraction to a lot of outside gamers who figure "well hey, I am good at most games and I am sure this one is no different". And there are of course also those DotA players who may have been on the fence whether or not to purchase HoN, but now knowing the y have the chance to compete for such good money will buy it.

So ya, although we might not see the immediate hit tomorrow or ever this week.. I am sure we will see a decent rise once again come next week and when more information gets released on these up coming tournaments.

O and ya, as hunter said... Honcast will be covering this even as well along with TobiWanKenobi joining us as a special guest from time to time.

when and WHERE does the registration open/begin?

[[DRYG]Zann]

tbh, Tournament registration will begin on May 19th and close on June 1st so don?t be late in registering!

didnt find it anyway.

[Sabre]

Registration not open yet? I wasn't able to find anything.

[[HCT]BreakyCPK]

Updated topic/post with sign up status, good luck to all teams!

[[TMS]Woobles]

I don't see anything about an entry fee. Are all these teams getting a shot at 10k for free?

[[HCT]BreakyCPK]

Yup, its about the sponsorship

[[DRYG]Zann]

I still dont get it,

I'm on that page:

And then?

Just post my clan and stuff?

[[P0KM]Magikarp`]

Yes, all you need to do is to reply to that post and have your information on there, your team and the basics.

Boy, this is quite exciting, I am loving HoN more and more, quite inspiring for S2 I would hope. I am betting we will see more players as HoN gets more popularity, because of marketing ideas such as this.

[[WiId]Bendur]

The registration is over, so when does it start?
