Wouldn't it make more sense if it was a $400 prize? $100 per player ect.

Looks fun though. GL.

Wasn't April Fools Day yesterday?

IMO, get rid of the current roto config and force hardcore mode!

Done.
Thank you Pengu!


Good thing we waited until the second to announce it then.

Hopefully in future we will be heading in this direction! I think for new teams even Vanilla Rotoblin will be a challenge for the time being, best not to jump into the deep end too quickly!

Yeah probs right phil, and no problems jekt!
Good luck to all teams who enter

We're kind of doing a vanilla/hardcore hybrid as melee cooldown will be set to kick in at 2 and infected spawn timers will be set at 18, however throwables and pills will still be on the map.

sucks that when people see money they want to play

I think it should be the opposite, no throwables at all and no pills but keep melee at standard. Throwables introduces more diceroll and favours the team going survivors second.

That is a really good point.

Will be interesting to see how if this entices people to play. Hopefully it does

It's actually 'Join Ladder' and will auto add your team if you are currently in one.

And also...
