The finals of "Lord of the Runs" is now! Tune in here: https://twitch.tv/frostyfightclub

One run to rule them all!!!

On September 29th at 11am PDT or 2pm EDT, 8 players will fight for the title of Lord of the Runs.

We began with 32 players and only Nicolas (The current King of Speed), Derp, Redz, Bensen, Myddo, Ezma, Ahmad, and David survived.

The future is littered with boxslopes, rockets, icebeams, drills, and spikes. Who will make it to our Grand Championships!



Make sure to tune in at: https://twitch.tv/frostyfightclub
We go LIVE with the pre-show at 10:30 am PDT/1:30 pm EDT with analysis and recap from the previous groups.

Right now, the tournament is configured for a top 4 payout with the prize pool currently standing at $520.14 (as of the time of this writing).

There is a special second strech goal unlock at $750 or more where we'll be able to pay out the Top 8 as a whole and not just the top 4.

However, This means you met the goal of beating $420.69 (KoS prize pool) and have unlocked something truly special.

This means Gert-Jan, one of the creators and developer of Speedrunners, will be facing TheSilentChaos, Community Organizer from Frosty Fight Club, in the FIRST TO FIVE set LIVE during the FINALE. He might also answer some questions during this time for you all.

This is your last reminder to purchase your Supporter Badge as when the first match goes LIVE during the finale, they will be no longer available for purchase! If we get $750 or more, TheSilentChaos will have to fight LordSmeef in a 2v2 showcase match where we each get a partner!

Purchase it here: https://ko-fi.com/s/fcc9d2a443




The badges from this tournament and the supporter badge will go live in a couple weeks after the event. Please keep a eye on the steam news for some upcoming news regarding upcoming contests, monthlies, and more!
