Overview
The premise of this tournament is to play a variant of SFG standard format which expands the fixed roster from 4 champions to five champions. Each player will select a list of five champions at the start of the tournament which is fixed for the entire event. Before each round, players secretly select and simultaneously reveal a warband of three for that round.
