Team Excello will be putting on a Quake 4 Cup series that will start next week. It will be comprised of four qualifying tournaments and then a Grand Finals in the fifth week. From each of the four qualifiers, the top two players will automatically move into the Grand Finals. Also, the event is being sponsored by SteelSeries, and there will be prizes for winners of the qualifiers as well as the Grand Finals. Heres a rundown of how it will be run:

Format:
Quake 4 1.42 w/ Q4MAX .78d
Best of 3 Maps All Rounds
Each map lasts 15 minutes
Double Elimination

Each tournament played start to finish each Saturday

I spoke with the director of the tournament, Justin 'Razorman' Witz, and he said "We hope that this cup can take off just like our Warcraft III and Starcraft cups have. We are thankful that we could get this tournament sponsored by SteelSeries, and we really just want the players to have a good time and for the community to become even bigger."

The first tournament of the series will officially start Saturday, July 28th at 3pm EST. You can visit the official tournament page here to signup for the event and also get more information about prizes and players.
