Dust2.us Eagle Masters Series #1 to extend Swiss Stage to avoid conflict with NA MRQ
After being informed by numerous teams that the Dust2.us Eagle Masters Series #1's schedule overlapping with the first day of the BLAST.tv Austin Major Americas NA MRQ, Dust2.us is excited to announce that he have adjusted to ensure teams will be able to play both events.
The Dust2.us Eagle Masters Series #1's Swiss Stage was originally scheduled to run from April 7th - April 15th, however in order to ensure all NA teams are able to compete without issue, we will be extending the Swiss until April 20th, giving teams three more days post-MRQ to complete their Swiss matches.
While the MRQ is running from April 15th to April 17th, teams in the MRQ will be free to focus on the Major qualifier while any matches scheduled for those teams during that period will be rescheduled.
Dust2.us is extremely appreciate of our partners at INUI Gaming for being so willing to prioritize the overall health of the NA scene and active collaboration with other stakeholders. INUI previously agreed to reschedule playoffs as necessary to encourage teams to attend Fragadelphia x LVLUP expo in Las Vegas, so we greatly appreciate their flexibility as a partner.
With all of this said, the new schedule for the Dust2.us Eagle Masters Series #1 looks like:
-
Qualifiers: March 8th - March 23rd
-
Swiss Stage: April 7th - April 20th
-
Playoffs: April 21st - TBD (Tentative end date May 1st)
As a reminder, qualifiers for the first Dust2.us Eagle Masters Series are now live on the INUI platform so be sure to sign up ahead of the first qualifier on March 8th.
The dates are:
-
Open Qualifier #1: March 8th - 9th
-
Open Qualifier #2: March 15th - 16th
-
Open Qualifier #3: March 22nd - 23rd
-
Open Qualifier #4: March 29th - 30th
Hope to see you there!
