NHLGamers,
The IS Cup has become a tradition and with us stepping into uncharted territory and ramping it up on the 6vs6-side last year, we're now bringing the same, improved concept for the 4th iteration of one of the biggest NHL esports tournaments of the year. IS Cup 4 is presented by NHLGamer and Ilta-Sanomat, sponsored by PlayStation, Prisma Gaming and Alpro.
Originally a Finnish tournament, IS Cup breaks new ground with its 4th iteration; expanding the scope of the tournament in allowing all European teams entry to challenge the Finns for the throne. In NHL19 we saw Finnish HAVU Gaming and FILADELPHIA dominate the playing field, but it'll remain to be seen if we can find some new competition this year.
The 4th iteration of IS Cup will alike last year, cap off at GameXpo in Helsinki, Finland between the 15th and 16th of November. In the final event, the four best teams will meet to battle it out for a prize pool of 5000 €.
Schedule of IS Cup 4:
Group stage 14-20.10
Playoffs 28.10-6.11
Semi-finals & Finals @ GameXpo 15-16.11
The prize pool will be divided as follows:
1. 3500€
2. 1000€
3. 500€
Prizes are subject to tax as per Finnish law and the tax is withheld before payment
Please note:
- Both the group stage phase and the playoffs will be very intensive and your team will be expected to play almost every day, so while the minimum required players amount is 7, be sure to have a roster big enough to take care of your duties.
- Teams that make the final four are responsible for their own travel and accommodation
- The semifinal games on Friday, November 15th will start during daytime
- Sign ups close on Friday October 11th 12:00 CEST.
Gather your team and sign up to challenge last years champions FILADELPHIA!
