Road of the King
Hosted by Chinese portal site SGamer, Road of the King will be the second massive team tournament held in China this year, following the culmination of IESC in Beijing.
Eight teams have been invited to compete in this event at the Optic Valley in Wuhan, China with a staggering prize purse of up to $10,000 for the overall winning team.
The format of this tournament will be a lot similar to NGL's system of 'winner stays in, loser goes out'. In addition to that, the ROTK administration has introduced a set of 'cards' which teams will be able to use once in every clan war. The descriptions are as follows:
 Split | The following game will be played in a best-of-3 format, instead of a best-of-1. |
 Mirror Image | The following game will be played on a 2on2 format, instead of 1on1. |
 Charm | Allows the user to play the following game on his map of choice. |
 Phase Shift | Allows the team to swap any player that has not been eliminated to play the following game. |
 Resurrection | Allows the team to 'revive' any player that has been eliminated in the clan war. |
 Anti-magic shell | Allows the team to void any of the above 5 cards that has been used by the opponent. |

using the mirror image card against someone who never plays 2on2 for their team would be smart.
| |
Will there be replays available after match or tournament?
| |
