Tournament Format
This event is centered on 2v2 FPK — the most balanced and competitive format for today’s legacy scene.
Our goal is to bring back real FPK (WITH FHR, NOT HOLD TELE OF D2R) with intense 2v2 battles. Depending on sign-ups and community interest, additional brackets (3v3 or 4v4) may be opened in the future.
- Primary format: 2v2 (sin/barb duo are not allowed for this format)
- Future formats: 3v3 / 4v4 (if turnout is strong enough)
- Bracket structure: Finalized once sign-ups are in.
All matches will be played gm under agreed rules and mediation if needed.

Closing Note
It has been far too long since the community has seen true FPK battles on legacy useast.
For years, this was where the highest level of dueling took place — where the best players in history sharpened their skills and earned their names.
This tournament is about more than just winning.
It’s about reviving the spirit of legacy, bringing old warriors back to the Blood Moor, and proving that FPK is still the purest form of dueling.
If you ever felt the thrill of a real fight, the pride of a hard-earned kill, or the rush of team victory — then you know why this matters.
The Moor awaits. Gather your team, step forward, and ascend.
