The whistle has blown! The first-ever Albion Football Clash kicks off today on AlbionTV. In celebration of the FIFA World Cup, content creators will lead teams in a soccer tournament where one unfortunate host will spend the next few weeks being kicked toward a goal.
The action begins with a series of friendly matches running from today until Saturday, June 13, when the tournament bracket opens. From there, teams will battle every Saturday at 19:30 UTC until the Grand Final on July 18. Take a look at the participating teams:
The Tournament
Viewers of AlbionTV may already know Tazzik as one of the show's hosts. They may also know him as the unfortunate soul who occasionally finds himself serving as a living football during community events. Now, after finding his calling in being launched across the battlefield for the amusement of others, Tazzik has finally made it to the big leagues.
The Albion Football Clash turns this community favorite into an official tournament, with Albion creators leading teams of eleven players in a battle for glory and exclusive rewards. Using knockback abilities, teams must launch Tazzik into the opposing goal while defending their own end. If you’re curious how this works, here’s a video of our last event:
