    The current pre-release of the client ("pioneer" in the version) is only compatible to itself. So you can only play with other testers. Please be aware!

      About this tournament series


      The "Super-Noob Olympics" are our entry-level tournaments. First and foremost, they are meant to be a sparring floor for beginners. Map pools will be appropriate for the skill level e.g. usually avoiding 20x20 and high reclaim maps. As beginners tend to be less familiar even with the "classics", we try to release the map pool somewhat early in order to provide you with some time to practice.

      About the Dojo tournaments


      We alternatingly hold entry- and mid-level tournaments on a monthly basis, also alternating between 2v2 and 3v3. Usually, we run our events on the 4th Saturday of the month with 2 PM UTC being the kick-off time.

      Current rotation:

      • Average Joe 2v2 (u1650 individual, u3000 combined)
      • Super-Noob 3v3 (u1250 individual, u3300 combined)
      • Average Joe 3v3 (u1650 individual, u4500 combined)
      • Super-Noob 2v2 (u1250 individual, u2200 combined)

      Feel free to check out upcoming events and maybe even sign up early: Tournaments.

      On said tournaments page, you can also find the hall of fame and all previous results including replay IDs and lineups. If you want to research an opponent who took part in one of our previous events, you surely can.

      About this tournament series


      The ultimate fist fight?

      Think you’ve got fast hands and top-tier micro? It’s time to enter the ring and prove it! Welcome to the most elemental duel you will find on FAF. It's going to be a high-stakes, fast-paced tournament packed into a single day.

      What's the challenge?

      On a 5x5 grid, there is zero room to breathe, no time to sit back and macro, and absolutely no mercy. The maps are tiny, the action starts immediately, and every single misstep or misclick will cost you dearly. One bad move, and your ACU is toast. One lost series, and you're eliminated - it will always be on your mind!

      Whether you’re a micro god or just looking for some intense, heart-pounding 1v1 matches, this single-day sprint will test your reflexes and tactical execution to the absolute limit.

      Are you ready to enter the ring?

      Bring your best builds, sharpen your micro, and don't blink. Do you have what it takes to survive the combos your opponent will be throwing at you and come out on top?

      Sign up now, lock in, and let’s see who reigns supreme!


      This event is a joint effort between the official tournament team and the FAF Dojo, the place to be for voice-based coaching.

    • [Concluded] Average Joe Olympics #2 - 2v2 - u3000

      average-joe-olympics-2.png

      Our recent Super-Noob tournament was a success. Now we are launching another test ballon to gauge how much interest there is for a different rating range. Will you be Joe enough to take part?

      Changes:

      • We are going to use global ratings instead of ladder ratings from now on, as the 2v2 ladder is not populated enough to provide "accurate" ratings
      • We are going to switch from Sundays to Saturdays.
      • We are going to recurringly hold our events on the 4th Saturday of the month in order to not clash with the uX 1v1 series dates held by Stryder and his team.
      • We are going to match our tournament start with the other tournament series', so our events will now kick off at 2 PM UTC.

    • RE: map-gen design vote

      I get the gist of the problem you want to tackle.

      Part of it comes from the fact that the moderation client only allows for determining the number of players and the map size when it comes to generating maps. They basically have no influence on the map design (biome, mass, reclaim,... ) in there. So as of now, what you're asking for is technically impossible unless someone would be willing to spend time on improving the moderation client, which - in my opinion - would be benefecial for everyone's 3v3 experience.

      Imagine having the option to create "templates" to pick from for different skill levels, e.g. low reclaim / low mex for beginners, and so on.

    • RE: Matchmaker Pool Feedback Thread

      It would be great if you guys would somehow mark the ones in the pool that are going to stay for longer than the current month. this would help with the decision which maps need more attention in training sessions. Something like a specific background color or an asterisk in the pool thread and/or the pool visible on the client.
