April 2024 Update #1: Audio Tournament & Title Structure Changes

[RhetoriK]

April 2024 Announcements






Tournament Spots

Moving forward, qualifying for any/all tournaments will be based on your ranking leading up to the event. There will be no tournament Sign-Ups for the foreseeable future. The strategy is to win battles in the arena to qualify. Period. LB Staff will set and communicate a ranking deadline preceeding the launch of the tournament bracket.

NOTE: Leagues such as LBT/LBA and Premier will continue to have monthly/weekly sign-ups as they are not facilitated in the tournament brackets.

Upcoming Audio Custom Beat Tournament

We will not be hosting an Audio Scheme Tournament in April. Instead, we will be updating the schedule for a Custom Beat Championship late-May.

The winner will recieve a permanent Custom Beat Champion AND hold the interchageable LBA Custom Beat Champion titles.

NOTE: If you want to compete in the next tournament, get ranked in May. Depending on activity, the brackets will be 16-32 battlers regardless of activity.

LBA Custom Beat Championship

This title will be defended monthly in the LBA League. The winner of the tournament can choose to defend the title or vacate it (putting it on the runner-up of the Custom Beat Tournament). Everyone else can sign-up to challenge for the #1 Contender Spoit.

NOTE: For audio, you must at least be ranked (or placed in the preceeding tournament) to sign-up for any of the leagues.

Again, if the Custom Beat Champion loses their LBA title, they retain their permanent title, but LBA moves to the winner.

LBA will be Custom Beat ONLY until Audio GC (which is an acapella tournament). We will be introducing a new title opportunity at that time. Stay tuned.

Text Leagues will have similar changes as we move through the year.

Stay tuned,
-Rhet
