2019 Summer Infinity Cup Anonymous 06/13/19 (Thu) 01:51:56 eeb981 No.31905

GREETINGS /strek/

The Infinity Cup is returning once again, and 8chan's boards will be fighting it out on the pitch to claim divegrass supremacy. As a board that has participated in the Cup at one point or another in its history, you are invited to the reveal stream for 2019 Summer edition of the Cup. On Saturday June 22nd, at 3 PM EDT/7 PM UTC, on cytu.be/r/8cup I'll be giving you guys an early look at the Cup's 5th edition, which will include revamped aesthetics, team stadiums and other quality of life improvements I've figured out how to do in PES 17. Hopefully this will get anons back on board with the Cup, considering it has struggled mightily since its 2nd incarnation.

So how is it going to go down? I'll be staging a couple of exhibition matches between teams using their rosters from the last Cup, and we'll shitpost our merry way through the stream. Once the stream ends, entries will be open for the Cup, and boards can start putting together/editing their rosters and kits. Entries will close in early July, the field will be determined, and the Group Draw will take place approximately a week before the Cup kicks off in August. I'm also hoping to possibly introduce managers for the Cup, although I'm still working out the details to keep this from devolving into a namefag dick measuring contest. I hope you all will tune in, and in case you aren't caught up on your board's history, I've provided some links below to get you caught up:

A reminder, you have less than two weeks to submit your logo, 3 kits, and base roster to the 8cup thread to secure your entry into the 2019 Summer Cup.

>>>/8cup/3090

http://infinitycup.shoutwiki.com/wiki//strek/

If you want to use your old roster (link above), just say so. All you'd need to do after that is submit one more kit to use on top of the two from the prior Cup.

Alright, got around to submitting /strek/'s team for the cup. Pics related are our third kit and the updated lineup. If you have anything to add or want some changes, please let me know. I check out /strek/ every day and unless it falls on the period when I'm on my vacation, I'll be around to make the changes.

The entries for the Infinity Cup are now closed. 24 teams total submitted the required base elements to be a valid entrant. While not the 32 I envisioned, 24 is still a viable number to host a tournament. The full list of 24 teams can be found at >>>/8cup/3322. A stream will be held at https://cytu.be/r/8cup , on August 4th in order to determine the Group Stage of the tournament. As one of the 24 boards participating, you will need to cobble together enough autism to complete the entry and fully personalize your team. What I need from your board is as follows:

Player Heights (http://infinitycup.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Rules#Player_Builds.2FAbilities)

Player Cards (http://infinitycup.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Player_Cards)

Team Strategy (http://infinitycup.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Team_Strategies)

Feel free to post the final pieces in here or in your thread on >>>/8cup/. A reminder that this is a call for any Blenderfags who are willing to help out to make faces/models for the players in game, as well as anyone with a nice voice and a microphone willing to be part of live commentary at one point or another. I also ask that the board vols please sticky this thread until the Cup is over so as to contain any shitposting, OC, banter, or Cupposting, as well as keep a highly visible place for remaining announcements to go.

The Group Draw is now complete. If you joined us for the stream, I hope you enjoyed the dumb autism. If you missed it, here's what happened. You've been placed into Group C with /ausneets/, /wooo/, and /kind/ and your schedule is listed in pic related. With kickoff under a week away, now's the time for any trash talk, hype, and whatever else you want to do before everything starts. If the board vols could please sticky the thread to keep visibility up for the event, I would appreciate it.
