Star Crossed Kings 2

There are a lot of reasons to be excited lately. Leaderboards, ESL, and a new faction are on the way. Most important of all, Star Crossed Kings is starting back up! Sign up and claim your throne!




A defending king must play at least two series starting every day at 18:00 UTC (2PM EDT, 7PM CET) except Mondays. The tournament will run for one to three weeks.




To challenge the current king, go to Romeo's stream at the scheduled time. Challengers are selected randomly from stream chat using a moobot raffle. The only rules about who can sign up are:

• If you win the raffle, you may give your slot to another player that entered the raffle instead.
  
• No player may challenge the same king twice in a row in a given week of SCK.
  
• No player may challenge a king that dethroned him in that week of SCK.
  

• King of the Hill
  
• 1v1
  
• Best of 3
  

The King plays as axis first. From there, the picking process is as follows:

• Game 1: Axis Player declares his Army first, then Allies Player declares his Army.
  
• Game 2: Axis Player declares his Army first, then Allies Player declares his Army.
  
• Game 3 (if necessary):
  
  
  • VP Leader from first two games declares whether he will play Axis or Allies.
    
  • VP Loser from first two games declares which Army he will play from his side.
    
  • VP Leader declares which Army he will play from his side.
    
  • The VP Leader has earned the right to counter-pick his opponent.
    
  
  

Every round will take place on one map. The maps will be cycled through in the following order:

• Angoville
  
• Semoskiy Winter
  
• Einhoven Country
  
• Faymonville Approach
  
• Minsk Pocket
  
• Kholodny Ferma Summer
  
• Crossing in the Woods
  
• Stalingrad
  

- I reserve the right to disqualify any player for any reason.
- All commanders and bulletins are allowed.
- These things are also allowed:

• USF going over pop cap
  
• OKW truck pushing
  
• Tank trap, sandbag, and wire ghosting
  

I'll be spectating and casting all games live, but players are encouraged to upload their replays to the COH2.ORG replays section anyway!




I'll be streaming all casts live on Twitch and uploading videos afterward on YouTube.




There are three prizes for this edition of SCK.

• DOMINATION: $100 for the King with the longest reign
  
• KING OF THE HILL: $50 for whoever is King when the tournament ends
  
• COCO JAMBO: $50 for the player with the best/most creative non-meta victory
  

The objective is to remain King for as long as possible. Since the King must play two rounds every day, it won't be easy! A King has only these options at the end of every day:

• Continue defending the throne the next day as normal
  
• Give the throne to someone else
  
• Forfeit and give the throne to nobody
  

Here's hoping this edition of SCK is just as action-packed as the first. How long will YOU last?
