Hello everyone,
it’s great to see you back so soon after the first SSI Tournament.
We’re happy to be able to announce that in just two weeks, streamfleet will be bringing its sequel (#SSI2) to a screen near you. Whats the difference this time? There will be more teams, more games, and most importantly of all, more explosions!
For those who aren’t familiar with the Streamfleet Showdown format, it is markedly different to the traditional AT format, with each team picking from a ‘stable’ of locked in fittings and compositions that must be submitted before the tournament starts. This effectively means that a team cannot bring the same ship twice in the tournament, ensuring that each match is unique, and no best composition or strategy rises up to dominate the format.
This new way of fighting, combined with a condensed 6v6 set up, with an additional complete ban on logistics creates a frantic and aggressive environment. This tests both fast decision making and pilot skills as much as theorycrafting, making for a uniquely paced viewing experience with little chance of a stalemate occuring. For further details, please take a look at the rules here.
All this is wrapped up with invited participants whom represent all corners of the game, bringing lowsec pirates, the cream of the AT crop & nullsec new-player alliances together to fight for a “coveted” SSI Trophy to display their victory.
If this sounds like your cup of tea, tune in to the Streamfleet Twitch on the 20th and 27th of April at 20:00
