Spotlight

Survival of the Fittest: The Last Stand was a Survival of the Fittest tournament. The grand finale took place on October 24.

Overview

230 participants came together in 6 man Tribes to compete for a $60,000 prize pool, making this event the biggest SOTF tournament to date. This tournament was different from past Survival of the Fittest events by having improved competition balance, four new evolution events, and three boss creatures.
