It’s that time of the month for the one and only SOAC Profession Tournament, this time our fantastic podcasters and tournament travels across the ocean to the wonderful old country (someone needs to get Bas a ticket to Europe). We are leaving Bas and Pyro behind on the good old shores of NA (though Pyro has threatened to use his EU account), and allowing our favorite EU Podcasters to help run the tournament.
If I understood correctly SOAC is looking for below level 35 five-man-class teams and having them duke it out? How long is the tournament overall?
Also what is the coaching for? Between-match advice?

The tournament (ideally) will take about 3 hours to complete, now that I’ve had more experience running competitive and larger tournaments.
The coaching is for a simple reason. We are only accepting low pvp level applicants. We make the assumption that they are more or less unskilled in how tPvP works, especially since we are accepting people with 0 experience in tPvP at all. Therefor, there is a team coach that will be spectating the match from the perspective of their team to help guide them through what they need to do to win, and how to do it, helping them with builds, strategies, and on-the-spot coaching.
Sadly my work schedule only came out today and of course it’s the only week in months where I work a Wednesday. So I sadly must withdraw from the tournament as much as I had wished to compete.
Unfortunately we had some issues and were unable to record the second set of games. So any individual recordings of those games would be awesome
An amazing job by Guild Clash, Blu, the coaches, and Battosai, who was asked to shoutcast 30 minutes before. I honestly believe that without them this never would have happened. Blu and Battosai made the tournament seem like everything was going great.
