Solo teams will be added to the Public Teams list, then be formed into teams on the day of the tournament. Solo teams will be randomly assigned a team name from either of its members.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;If you sign up as a solo, but then you find a teammate, you can re-sign up as a team any time before check-ins start. Just use the /signup command again with the new teammate. The tournament organizer will void your old solo signup after they process your new team signup.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;After check-ins are over, all checked-in solo players will be randomly formed into teams by the tournament organizer. You cannot request a specific teammate at this point; if you want to play with a specific person, you should have signed up as a team instead.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;i&gt;It is still strongly recommended to sign-up as a team to guarantee your spot in the tournament and to give you time to practice with your teammate beforehand.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;bb_h1&quot;&gt;Sign-up and Check-in Video Guide&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div onclick=&quot;javascript:ReplaceWithYouTubeEmbed( this );&quot; data-youtube=&quot;RUaH8AObyX0&quot; class=&quot;sharedFilePreviewYouTubeVideo sizeFull&quot;&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;sharedFilePreviewYouTubeVideo sizeFull&quot; src=&quot;https://steamcommunity.com/public/shared/images/responsive/youtube_16x9_placeholder.gif&quot;/&gt;&lt;iframe src=&quot;https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/RUaH8AObyX0?fs=1&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&quot; allowFullScreen=&quot;1&quot; frameBorder=&quot;0&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;bb_h1&quot;&gt;Schedule&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;Saturday, September 26&lt;/b&gt;&lt;ul class=&quot;bb_ul&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;Check-in window: 17:45 - 18:15 CEST (European Time)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Games: 19:00 - 22:30 CEST (European Time)&lt;ul class=&quot;bb_ul&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;Round of 16 (Best of 3)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Quarter-finals (Best of 3)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sunday, September 27&lt;/b&gt;&lt;ul class=&quot;bb_ul&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;Check-in window: 18:00 - 18:30 CEST (European Time)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Games: 19:00 - 22:30 CEST (European Time)&lt;ul class=&quot;bb_ul&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;Semi-finals (Best of 3)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Final (Best of 5)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;b&gt;Check-in&lt;/b&gt;&lt;ul class=&quot;bb_ul&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;Teams must check in via the &lt;a class=&quot;bb_link&quot; href=&quot;https://steamcommunity.com/linkfilter/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fdiscord.gg%2FmA9F4B2mTD&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot; noopener&quot; &gt;Legion TD 2 Official Tournament Discord&lt;/a&gt;.

Solo teams will be added to the Public Teams list, then be formed into teams on the day of the tournament. Solo teams will be randomly assigned a team name from either of its members.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;If you sign up as a solo, but then you find a teammate, you can re-sign up as a team any time before check-ins start. Just use the /signup command again with the new teammate. The tournament organizer will void your old solo signup after they process your new team signup.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;After check-ins are over, all checked-in solo players will be randomly formed into teams by the tournament organizer. You cannot request a specific teammate at this point; if you want to play with a specific person, you should have signed up as a team instead.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;i&gt;It is still strongly recommended to sign-up as a team to guarantee your spot in the tournament and to give you time to practice with your teammate beforehand.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;bb_h1&quot;&gt;Sign-up and Check-in Video Guide&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div onclick=&quot;javascript:ReplaceWithYouTubeEmbed( this );&quot; data-youtube=&quot;RUaH8AObyX0&quot; class=&quot;sharedFilePreviewYouTubeVideo sizeFull&quot;&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;sharedFilePreviewYouTubeVideo sizeFull&quot; src=&quot;https://steamcommunity.com/public/shared/images/responsive/youtube_16x9_placeholder.gif&quot;/&gt;&lt;iframe src=&quot;https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/RUaH8AObyX0?fs=1&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&quot; allowFullScreen=&quot;1&quot; frameBorder=&quot;0&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;bb_h1&quot;&gt;Schedule&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;Saturday, August 29&lt;/b&gt;&lt;ul class=&quot;bb_ul&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;Check-in window: 17:45 - 18:15 CEST (European Time)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Games: 19:00 - 22:30 CEST (European Time)&lt;ul class=&quot;bb_ul&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;Round of 16 (Best of 3)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Quarter-finals (Best of 3)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sunday, August 30&lt;/b&gt;&lt;ul class=&quot;bb_ul&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;Check-in window: 18:00 - 18:30 CEST (European Time)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Games: 19:00 - 22:30 CEST (European Time)&lt;ul class=&quot;bb_ul&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;Semi-finals (Best of 3)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Final (Best of 5)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;b&gt;Check-in&lt;/b&gt;&lt;ul class=&quot;bb_ul&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;Teams must check in via the &lt;a class=&quot;bb_link&quot; href=&quot;https://steamcommunity.com/linkfilter/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fdiscord.gg%2FmA9F4B2mTD&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot; noopener&quot; &gt;Legion TD 2 Official Tournament Discord&lt;/a&gt;.

Solo teams will be added to the Public Teams list, then be formed into teams on the day of the tournament. Solo teams will be randomly assigned a team name from either of its members.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;If you sign up as a solo, but then you find a teammate, you can re-sign up as a team any time before check-ins start. Just use the /signup command again with the new teammate. The tournament organizer will void your old solo signup after they process your new team signup.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;After check-ins are over, all checked-in solo players will be randomly formed into teams by the tournament organizer. You cannot request a specific teammate at this point; if you want to play with a specific person, you should have signed up as a team instead.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;i&gt;It is still strongly recommended to sign-up as a team to guarantee your spot in the tournament and to give you time to practice with your teammate beforehand.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;bb_h1&quot;&gt;Sign-up and Check-in Video Guide&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div onclick=&quot;javascript:ReplaceWithYouTubeEmbed( this );&quot; data-youtube=&quot;RUaH8AObyX0&quot; class=&quot;sharedFilePreviewYouTubeVideo sizeFull&quot;&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;sharedFilePreviewYouTubeVideo sizeFull&quot; src=&quot;https://steamcommunity.com/public/shared/images/responsive/youtube_16x9_placeholder.gif&quot;/&gt;&lt;iframe src=&quot;https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/RUaH8AObyX0?fs=1&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&quot; allowFullScreen=&quot;1&quot; frameBorder=&quot;0&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;bb_h1&quot;&gt;Schedule&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;Saturday, July 18&lt;/b&gt;&lt;ul class=&quot;bb_ul&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;Check-in window: 17:45 - 18:15 CEST (European Time)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Games: 19:00 - 22:30 CEST (European Time)&lt;ul class=&quot;bb_ul&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;Round of 16 (Best of 3)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Quarter-finals (Best of 3)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sunday, July 19&lt;/b&gt;&lt;ul class=&quot;bb_ul&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;Check-in window: 18:00 - 18:30 CEST (European Time)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Games: 19:00 - 22:30 CEST (European Time)&lt;ul class=&quot;bb_ul&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;Semi-finals (Best of 3)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Final (Best of 5)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;b&gt;Check-in&lt;/b&gt;&lt;ul class=&quot;bb_ul&quot;&gt;&lt;li&gt;Teams must check in via the &lt;a class=&quot;bb_link&quot; href=&quot;https://steamcommunity.com/linkfilter/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fdiscord.gg%2FmA9F4B2mTD&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot; noopener&quot; &gt;Legion TD 2 Official Tournament Discord&lt;/a&gt;.
