📅 WHEN: January 16 - 17 & January 22 - 24
📡 WHERE: Red Bull on twitch.tv & YouTube
THE EVENT:
The Red Bull Wololo III tournament reaches its epic finale as the Main Event of the 1v1 Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition competition kicks off over the next two weekends. Are you ready for more thrilling, competitive action?
Red Bull Wololo III sees competitors test their wits in a custom version of Empire Wars: a game mode which scraps the first stages of a traditional match to begin in the Feudal Age. This tweak brings the more exciting action to the forefront as players battle across 13 new and existing maps.
THE ROAD TO THE FINALS:
The global tournament’s open qualifiers saw competitors Daniel, Vinchester, GL.DauT, and ACCM fight to victory in the first open qualifier bracket, where they were joined by BacT, Villese, MbL, and Vivi from the second bracket. All have earned their place in the finals, where they’ll battle it out with a legendary group of pro players: Mr_Yo, TheViper, Hera, Liereyy, TaToH, TheMax, Nicov, and Capoch. All are set to take part in the 16-player Main Event—and with a $30,000 prize pool up for grabs, the fight to be crowned champion is going to be fierce!
Not only that, but the introduction of an overarching story to the tournament series gives this epic event an even greater twist:
Civilizations in each Red Bull Wololo event are fighting over a castle which has a library containing the knowledge required for world domination. Each Wololo event represents a different civilization trying to gain control of the castle and its library: with Red Bull Wololo I and II representing Western Civilization, and Wololo III now representing Asian Civilization. The tournament series will conclude in a grand final where the winners of each tournament battle it out—an event you won’t want to miss.
The winner of Red Bull Wololo III will join the previous winners—Mr_Yo, who won the first Red Bull Wololo, and Liereyy, the Red Bull Wololo II champion—to take their place in the grand final.
