K1NGSMAN- | ELITE PROTOCOL

Registration for the k1ngsMAN- | Elite Protocol tournament is officially open!

Gather your team and prepare for the main CS2 battle of the summer with a prize pool of 70,000 MDL. Participation in the tournament is absolutely FREE!

Tournament format and dates:

The tournament will be held in a 5v5 format and is divided into two key stages:
🌐 Online Qualifiers (Faceit): August 13, 14, 15, and 16. The qualifiers will determine 4 teams that will advance to the main stage.
🏟 LAN Final (Playoffs): August 22 and 23. The 8 best teams (4 from qualifiers + 4 via direct invites) will clash at the CYBERLIFE club at Sarmizegetusa 9.

Match format, broadcasts, and tournament statistics:

All standard qualifying matches are played in a BO1 format. The finals of each of the four qualifiers will be held in a BO3 format and will be broadcast live on our channels!

Important about stats: Qualifier final matches (BO3), as well as all Playoff matches (LAN Final), will officially count towards the team statistics on the CYBERLIFE website. Regular qualifying matches (BO1) are not recorded in the site's statistics.

Direct Invites: who did we invite and why?

Four teams have already secured their spot in the LAN final, skipping the qualifier phase. Direct invites are not given randomly — the Top 4 teams from the official rating on the CYBERLIFE website received the invites.

The most important condition for receiving an invite: preserving the core of the roster. A team must have at least 3 permanent players who have not changed organizations and have consistently played together all this time.

Teams that received a Direct Invite to the LAN Final:

• Virtuoso Squad
• MadnessTeam
• CYBERNIX
• Alliance CS

Want to get directly into future major tournaments? Participate in our events, earn rating points on the website, stay loyal to your roster, and in the future, the coveted invite might go to your team!

How registration works:

We have created 4 separate pages for each qualifier. Teams can choose any of them (or several at once) and register as they wish. For example, if you can't make the first qualifier, feel free to register for the second, third, or fourth.

Important registration rules:
After successful team registration on our website, a separate private chat will be created for your roster in our Discord channel. That is where the administration will drop you the invite link to the tournament on the Faceit platform. There is no other way to get an invite!
Attention: The Faceit invite for a specific qualifier is ONLY given to teams that registered for it through the CYBERLIFE website.

All detailed information, the full tournament rulebook, and event rules are available on the main tournament page.
