Paladins Set To Break Into eSports World With $100,000 Tournament
Hi-Rez Studios have already enjoyed huge success within the eSports community with their free-to-play MOBA game SMITE and today they announced plans to continue that success with their latest title, the upcoming card-based first-person shooter, Paladins. The team will begin their journey into the eSports community for Paladins with the release of a brand new game mode, Constructed Mode, that is scheduled to arrive with the next major update for the game. To encourage the community members to get involved in the new mode the team at Hi-Rez Studios also announced additional details for the upcoming $100,000 Founders Tournament for Paladins some time in Spring 2016. The Constructed Mode, that is scheduled to release with the next update for Paladins, will be introduced and give players a different approach to the competitive elements of the game as the mode features entirely random maps with pre-constructed decks - a more balanced approach to eSports style gameplay.- The Founder’s Tournament will be held in the early spring 2016 at the Hi-Rez eSports Arena in Atlanta and will feature a prize pool of $100,000.
- Hi-Rez will select 4 teams to attend the tournament based on a series of online qualification events. Two teams from North America and two teams from Europe will qualify.
- In addition, Hi-Rez will start holding regular online tournaments with small cash prizes in January.
