Uncharted Treasure Bearer Competition

Here at TSA we are always looking for new ways to get the community involved. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, Killzone 2 and FIFA 10 have all gotten the TSA treatment recently and now it’s the turn of Naughty Dog’s epic masterpiece; Uncharted 2: Among Thieves. Our Uncharted 2 clan leader Teflon has come up with a fantastic idea to find the best player here in our lovely community. A knock-out style tournament that not only requires personal skill to be victorious, but also consistency and teamwork. Sound interesting so far? Here is how the competition will work.

The tournament will be played on Thursday the 29^th of April and will start at 8PM BST. The maximum number of players is 20, if more than 20 applications are received then names will be drawn at random. Once the 20 players have been selected they will be randomly put into two parties of 10 and then separated into teams of 5.

Each round will consist of a 10 minute match played on a randomly selected map and a predetermined game mode.  At the end of each round the lowest scoring player, based on kills, is eliminated from each team. Does that mean this competition is all about kills? Oh no. Winning objective based games will improve your chances of progression. Capturing a control point counts as 2 extra kills towards your score and a plunder capture will count as 3 extra kills. Also at the end of round 3 the winning team is exempt from elimination so only the lowest scoring player in the losing side will be knocked out.

After round 3 both parties will join to form one match with the previous parties now forming teams. At the end of both round 4 and 5 one player will be eliminated from each team leaving 6 participants standing. These 6 players will then play in one final match with the results determining the final tournament standings. TSA points will be allocated depending on final standings. 1^st place – 250 points, 2^nd place – 150 points, 3^rd place – 100 points and the other three finalists receiving 20 points.

No DLC is required. All boosters and skins are allowed. Entries should be sent to colin@thesixthaxis.com before midnight on Monday the 26^th of April with the subject line “Uncharted Treasure Bearer”. All entries must include your TSA and PSN ID, entries without these will not be counted. A reminder that the weekly Uncharted 2 meet takes place tonight at 7PM BST. Make sure you are there and give yourself the best chance possible next Thursday.
