Biles

it will be a 1v1 competition hosted over 2 days SAT/SUN - Elimination

[eShot]

I know you haven't decided on exactly what type of tournament yet but i think AK's & M4's would be good. Maybe even deagle.
Would still prefer Ak's tho

good job, should be a great event.

[Fragmaster]

it will be a aim map 1v1 , but one thing for sure it wont be awp.

[Yakkkkkk]

this event should be a good laugh and what a prize!!

[Mikey]

Umps!
