Attention Mercenaries

Today we are happy to announce that CF NA/UK will be attending Crossfire Stars! A tournament being held by Smilegate on June 1st and 2nd 2013.

Teams from all versions of CrossFire will descend upon Shanghai China for the CrossFire stars tournament on June 1st and 2nd. There is over $175,000 Up for grabs for all the teams.

Each version has been playing out matches and tournaments within their regions over the last month. In CF NA, we have had 4 separate competitions to bring us down to a qualifying Final Four teams. This Final Four will face off on Wednesday April 24th, 2013 starting at 7:30pm EST SHARP. We will be broadcasting this out of the CFL twitch Channel.


How did the teams get here?
Over the course of the last 3-4 months, CrossFire has been involved in some amazing live and league competition. The CFL started their season league and a winner was chosen to compete in the Final Four.

The CrossFire Live LAN Party in Toronto, Canada was also chosen as a venue to select a team for the Final Four.

We also allowed Hammertime to reprise their roll as reigning champions within the game, inviting them back to compete as a part of the Final Four.

Lastly, after months of a growing movement within our competitive community we invited 16 of the games top teams to compete for the remaining spot in the Final Four.


Who are the teams?
1 of the following 4 teams will be representing our version in Shanghai on June 1st and 2nd and have an opportunity to compete for their share of over $175,000 in cash and prizes. It has taken skill and determination by all of these teams to get to where they are and we are proud to bring this 3 game playoff series on Wednesday April 24th at 7:30pm to you all.
Hammertime
A team with veteran status within CF NA, they have competed at WCG in the past as well as many other tournaments. Always a threat, Hammertime is looking to get back into the spotlight and dominate the competition!

Carnage
Canada's reigning champions, Carnage comes in Hot with wins at the CF LAN Toronto, and second place in the CFL Season 1 league. Carnage is looking to bring the pain once more and pave their way to China.
