Welcome all to my third attempt at whatever the heck this thing is. What the heck is this thing you ask? Well this is the 2023 Sweet FA eSports Pentathlon. Missing that competitive edge during the off-season? Well look no further than the 2023 Sweet FA eSports Pentathlon where all 13 SFA clubs will be participating in 5 different video game tournaments, collecting points and eventually crowing an overall winner.
How It Works:
Per event, the points scoring system will work as follows:
The Events:
As mentioned 5 video games will make up the Pentathlon and will be posted to YouTube for viewing. These events are:
IT ALL KICKS OFF TONIGHT!
NONE OF THIS PROBABLY MADE ANY SENSE BUT OH WELL!!!
LET THE GAMES BEGIN!
How It Works:
- Pentathlon = 5 events. 5 events = 5 video games for your SFA teams to battle out for supremacy and collect points. 1 event will take place per week with the entire Pentathlon taking place across 5 weeks.
- For each video game, SFA clubs will be selected at random and will be followed by a random selection of the video game team/athlete that will be represent them.
- Each event is a single elimination knockout tournament and the bracket will be set up during the random draw of teams
- However, 13 teams doesn't quite go into a single elimination bracket. There will be a "Lucky Loser" determined once in the first round and again in the second round. The way the "Lucky Loser" is determined varies depended on the event.
- Once a team has been allocated as the "Lucky Loser", they'll be ineligible to be a "Lucky Loser" again until everyone has been a "Lucky Loser". This carries over across years, if we make it that far.
Per event, the points scoring system will work as follows:
- 1st = 25 points
- 2nd = 18 points
- 3rd = 15 points
- 4th = 12 points
- 5th = 10 points
- 6th = 8 points
- 7th = 6 points
- 8th = 4 points
- 9th = 2 points
- 10 = 1 point
- 11th, 12 & 13th = 0 points
The Events:
As mentioned 5 video games will make up the Pentathlon and will be posted to YouTube for viewing. These events are:
- Event #1 - NBA 2K23
- Event #2 - FIFA 23
- Event #3 - WWE 2K18
- Event #4 - TBA
- Event #5 - TBA
