It should also be stated the Sith Takers do not decide what's going to happen and what we say is personal opinion, nothing has been decided bar the group needs to establish a structure and set some goals. What this group will actually do is very much TBD and if we say something you don't like don't panic... nothing is set in stone!

Much like the 2020 Sith Taker Open it's a two day event with Swiss day 1 and Top Cut & Side events day 2. The event will take place on August 7th & 8th and currently capped at 64 players which is under half the venue's normal max capacity to allow for even more space between the tables! We've pushed the event date back to late Summer to allow as much time for things to hopefully settle down and the event will only take place if it's safe to do so, and if current restrictions at the time allow.
