The teams have grown.
Some have been pruned.
The time has come.
We need to crown a Secret League Grand Champion!
(Well, I suppose we don't have to. I mean, it's not like there's a dark entity under my desk forcing us to have a bloody tournament for their entertainment to find the most brutal team out there. That would be silly.
Get away from my desk! We're having a tournament!)
The Grand Championship shall be in two parts:
- A four round SWISS tournament in which all the teams beat the b... err... <cough> in which the teams compete for one of four slots in the...
- Double elimination tournament.
The team which emerges on top shall be awarded the belt and named the Grand Champions until next April when more virtual blood is... err...
<cough> until we get to do it all again.
The winning team will also be recorded as the 2025 winner.
Rounds will be two weeks long to facilitate scheduling, so teams signing up can anticipate a fistful of games over the next subsequent two months, and winners of the first part will get many more weeks after that.
The draw will take place on 5 April 2025 at approximately 18:00 server time.
