Welcome to the 4th event of the SAVE ARMS 2020 Series!

This, the 4th of 8 Qualifiers, will be a double elimination tournament. The winner will be invited to compete in the Grand Finals at the end of the season for a share of a community-driven prize fund that will be raised during the season.

Games are Best of 3 up until Winners/Losers finals, which are Best of 5. Grand Finals will be a Best of 7 and in the event of a bracket reset, this will be a Best of 9.

Please note that this tournament will not be restricted to region as it is a Worldwide event. Whilst there will be a lag complaint procedure in place, please be reasonable should you encounter someone from a different region from your own during the course of the tournament as there is only so much that can reasonably be done on this front.
