Who are we?
Minecraft Tournaments is a competition server that emphasizes select areas of Minecraft to allow a collection of interested players to partake in challenging events to determine the most skilled competitor.Our goal is to create a large Youtube presence in order to strengthen the competition and influence determination. These tournaments will occur every couple of months with hopes of great success.

The network will be efficiently coded by a group of 2-3 programmers, and created by a group of around 20 exceptional staff members. The events will consist of original and custom gamemodes create fully by our team of developers such as Parkour, Skywars, Pvp and Ghostbusters and will be livestreamed on TwitchTV. It will consist of a large prize pool of over $1000 + of ingame and physical items such as Razor hardware.
