So the Lustrain Challenge VII is upon us.
Applications, before 22:00 Wed 7th August to: HERE
Lustrian Challenge main group page available there with full details, and to APPLY TO ONCE YOU WIN A QUALIFIER.
So, what are you bringing? Does the challenge stage mean elfs only? Will TSH be winning another major? |

Since there are only 128 spots available in the qualifiers and the minimum TV is 1500, If more than 128 people apply, what factor determines who will get in over others? |

teams are ranked by TV and the top 128 allowed in, assuming we have more than 128.
In case of a tie, time of application is used to split them. Earlier = better. |

Is there an outside chance that if we get 256 applicants that the qualifying brackets will be bumped up to 16 teams? |

Good news! I was worried I wouldn't be able to beef up enough in time. |

A Well-Read Pestilence will be entering. Hopefully I can find opponents for a couple more matches in the meantime - people seem to be picking a lot more than normal lately. |

I am most likely bringing my Vampire team into this.
If there were to be a bracket for stunty type teams and my all skink team could get into that, I would consider dropping them into it. |

After two disappointing majors in the UI and GLT in which they lost their first matches, they hope to find more cookies on their home turf at LC...
Only time will tell if they succeeds |

Last years main Draw participant Sithi D Team has lost the internal preselection process against 3 times UI main Event participant Sithis revenge. It was a tough call and the preasure is high now for Sithis revenge. |

I will be making a humble attempt to unforlorn the Necromantic race. In the unlikely event of it occuring, it may also be the first unretired team to win a major. |

PainState insulted me enough to apply the Agility Monsters right away (and considering the TV they'll be in for sure)! I hope they face the Buccaneers again and punish them for their coach's Impudence!

The agility monsters might think they are elves..but they are not insane. That deck is way to stacked against them. So in typical dwarf fashion they come up with an excuse why they cannot participate and head to the local pub. All the time talking about how hot it is in lustria right now, the Temple guard is a chump, who would want that guy? Plus the monsters are going to win the FC instead because it is a more coveted trophy. Any "joe" can have a LC trophy in the case. |
