Nations Cup 2011

[NakedLegend]

Finland

2. Germany

3. Denmark

Haven't you always wondered which is the best country in Battlefield Heroes? We sure did and that's why we decided this game needs a Nations Cup. Well to be exact it's unfortunately an European Nations Cup for now as compensating the ping difference between continents made it impossible to make at this scale. So every game is to be played on European servers, but that won't limit teams from outside Europe to participate, if you just can cope with the ping disadvantage.

What?
Nations Cup is a tournament where different countries compete for the world championship. You know like in football, icehockey and so on. Each country will have a captain who gathers the best players of his/her country and they will then fight in a tournament. Tournament format is group based with playoffs between the best teams of each group.

Where?
All around Europe.

When?
Captains will be selected on the 12th of June.
After that they will build their teams, and practise this takes about 2 weeks or less.
Tournament table will be online 26th of June.
One week to get the games scheduled and the servers set.
First match week 27th of June.
Tournament should be finished by the end of August.

How to join it?
Your country's captain is recruiting your national team, feel free to apply for it. Links to the recruitment threads are below.

Prizes:
Honour.
