NA Information


Hey gang. Aesop here.

This is our very first WORLDWIDE event, and there are a lot of moving parts, but we're getting there together.

There's a couple things that you all have been asking me about that I want to talk about:

1: Venue

Things are still shaking up on our end. We're working on getting a venue with people here in Korea, but restrictions have made it difficult.
I'm hoping to have it be an in-person event for the NA and Korea teams, but this is still being worked on. Stay tuned for more info.
* All other teams will remain in their home regions.

2: Qualifiers

Aside from NA, each region will have a qualifier tournament. (See above for details)
This is due to time restrictions on getting players here and this being the first event where we're still working out the kinks.
The finals for the other regions will (likely) be streamed. I'll provide more details on this in the coming weeks as well.

3: NA Roster

After discussion with people here at NN and reading feedback from the community, I extended invitations to two team captains, Scaz and Homecoming, a few weeks ago and had them compose teams. Both are exceptional players and have done a lot for the community.
For future events, when things have eased up a bit, and time isn't quite as tight, we'll also hold qualifiers in both NA and EU.

Think of this event as us laying the groundwork for us to scale up and have larger exciting events in the future!

Thanks for all of your understanding and we all look forward to hosting an awesome event and seeing you all enjoy it!

New DLC Pricing & Compensation notice

Hello everyone,

Yesterday, there was a problem regarding a discount for the "Character X Skin Combo Pack" that was incorrectly applied. Steam applied the discount twice, and sold the pack at a greater discount than intended.

There are many players who have already purchased it at the double discounted price, so we decided to maintain the current "doubly discount" price to avoid troubling players.

For players who have purchased the pack for the previous price, we plan to partially refund the payment or return the price difference to your steam wallet, but we are currently discussing this with Steam as this is up to them. If Steam disallows it, we'll try to provide the best compensation that we can.

In addition, players who already owned the skins and characters before purchasing the DLC, A-Coin and NP will be provided accordingly (Character 8,020 A-Coin / Skin 1,075NP). Although the price for the DLC has been set at a very low price, players who already owned the skins and characters will also receive the same benefits when purchasing the pack.

We sincerely apologize for the confusion.
