How to Get Involved:

  1. Book your ticket

  2. Sign up for the SC2 tournament!
    → This also helps us seat all the SC2 players together.
    → Use your own Clan Tag, or ‘UKSC2’ if you want to be seated with other SC2 folk.

  3. Pick your seat in Lakeside
    → Exact seat doesn’t matter too much, but aim for the SC2 block and we’ll make sure teams/friends get grouped.
