Recently we passed our first milestone here at the Hub when we published our 100th article. Considering the life span of past grifball related websites, I’d like to think hitting one hundred articles was a pretty good accomplishment. So good in fact that we’re going to celebrate the occasion by hosting a 2v2 grifball tournament this Friday, May 29th at 8:30pm eastern standard time.
The tournament is open to everyone, Amateur and Pro players alike and will be single elimination. Lose once and you’re out. There will be a limit of 32 teams. The winning duo will each receive 1600 Microsoft Points. Winners will be either e-mailed a points code or have it sent to them via private message on Rooster Teeth. Their choice. Yes, we’ve already purchased the codes, so there will no waiting forever to receive your prizes. A sign-up thread will be posted on the Rooster Teeth forums the day of the tournament, so if you’d like to play but aren’t currently a member of Rooster Teeth, you’ve got time to become so.
We expect everyone who participates to enjoy themselves and not cause problems for others. If we receive word of anyone being particularly douchebaggy, they will be disqualified from the tournament along with their teammate. We know grifball is serious business, but try to be respectful of your opponents. It’s not that difficult.
You’ll need the following map, created by Nokyard. It’s a half-sized grifball court, suitable for grifball play. If you don’t already have them, you should also grab the grifball and network test gametypes. A network test is really not necessary, considering you can’t sub someone in if you or your teammate aren’t connecting particularly well to the host, but it can be run if you feel like it. If the connection is a little laggy, you’ll just have to find a way to overcome it.
As stated previously, sign-ups will be this Friday. If you don’t already, watch the GrifballHUB topic on Rooster Teeth for announcements regarding sign-ups and brackets. The brackets will be hosted here on the Hub.

This is an awesome idea. Happy 100th article!
Oops, i have not tested to see if Network Test works for this version of the map.
If you spawn in the back room just head for the A and B signs. They will drop you onto the court.
Uh ohhh. Looks like Scet Shin and x0 pie x0 are about to win another 2v2 tournament. Uh oh!
@Nokyard: LOL…that’s alright. I don’t think the network test will really be necessary. I know some people always seem to insist on it in bum rushes though.
Me and Spyda Munky wanna sign up for this shizz!!
lol…You guys are more than welcome to participate :)
Are you a member at Rooster Teeth? If not, I’ll consider your comment here to be your sign-up for the tournament. I’ll just need a team name you two plan to use ;P
Heck yeah bryan! We got to think of a team name!
Hey could me jcf55 and L2DxSPEEDx play as the mini muffins in the torunament and yes we are members of Roster teeth
@jcf55: As long as you’re both located in the U.S., you’re more than welcome to participate. The sign-ups have not officially begun however. I’ll be opening them up on Friday and making a post here on the Hub to remind everyone.
k thanks for that information and yes we are in the us
when will these signups start?
I’ve updated this article with a link to the thread on Rooster Teeth where sign-ups will take place.
Great bum-rush guys. Happy 100th article to the Hub!
Overall I was pretty happy with how it turned out. Sign-ups went ridiculously fast. If I knew we’d have 32 teams that quickly, I may have waited til 8pm to open the sign-ups.
We did have a little drama, but it seems you can’t have a bum rush without it, so I wasn’t too upset by it.
