CEVO is proud to announce the opening of its first Counter-Strike Source Rush Tournament with over $1500 worth of prizes for the top three teams.

A player is considered @ready when he/she has paid the entry fee and has correctly entered their SteamID into their CEVO Account. Once a team has 5 players @ready, the team will be considered ready for the tournament.

This tournament will last two weeks starting on Tuesday, February 16th and ending with the finals on Wednesday, Februrary 24th.

All CEVO Counter-Strike Source rules apply to this tournament including the current zBlock rules. All CEVO configs will remain the same and teams are required to have proper configs PRIOR to the start of any official CEVO match.
With all that being said, I would like to wish all competing teams the best of luck and we here at CEVO look forward to a new series of rush tournaments in 2010.
