The WGL Fantasy League Invades the Grand Finals
General NewsApr 1, 2016 11:50
6128

Fantasy eSports is quickly becoming a worldwide phenomenon, and while Fantasy League for World of Tanks has continued to grow and captivate the North American audience for a few seasons, the 2016 Grand Finals mark the first time the game will be opened up to players and teams across the globe.

 

That's right -- Wargaming's Fantasy League is adding top-shelf teams like Na'Vi and HellRaisers to the mix, enabling fans to pick their favorite lineups and compete for prizes as the best World of Tanks players battle for their shot at the championship trophy.

For those who haven't played Fantasy WGL before, here's a quick breakdown:

  • Head to the Fantasy WGL site and sign in using your Wargaming ID
  • Pick a team of seven players who you think will score the most points in categories ranging from damage to kills. There's a limit of only two players per individual team, so don't think you can simply stack your team full of Na'Vi superstars for the win
  • The fantasy game will be played on both Friday and Saturday, so after Friday's matches, be sure to log back in and make lineup adjustments depending on how your team is playing
  • While every team plays an equal amount of matches Friday, Saturday's games will vary due to the single-elimination playoffs, so pick a team of players who you think will go the distance

Prizes include Gold and vehicles, so study up on the best players from around the world and pick your team wisely. Rosters will be made available beginning Friday, April 1, with teams locked when the battles begin 3:00 PT (Grand Finals local time of 12:00 CES).

RankPrize
1-25Choice of Type 59, AMX 13 57GF, or leKpz M41 90mm GF
26-50Choice of AMX 13 57GF or leKpz M41 90mm GF
51-100Choice of any Tier 6 or below tech tree premium tank
Top 10%7 Days Premium, 500 Gold
Top 20%3 Days Premium, 250 Gold
Top 30%250 Gold
While all may participate, only NA accounts may win prizes

SO quick Question, does "Choice of any Tier 6 or below tech tree premium tank" mean that it is restricted to the tech tree (I.E, premimum tanks that are available via the tech tree), or it allows for limited time tanks (For example the M4A3E8FURY or Cromwell B)

you have to be able to buy the tank right now in game through the tech tree, so the Fury and the Crom B are not available.

The way I read it I think it's current tech tree in game. But who knows for sure? Maybe you are right, but I doubt it tbh.

Well, so far so good. Wish that I could have done better but Masterpupil failed to perform. Obviously someone forgot to get him a plane ticket and put in someone else, what's up with that? All season, these guys put in the same players week in and week out and only until the finals comes around that you take these guys out? The only ones that have been consistent with keeping in the same players is those from other countries and SIMP! What an embarrassment eclipse! But no matter, the others are playing the matches with the players that they played with all season and I will adjust accordingly!

lol if u have never traveled out of country passports and temp visas can be a real pain if you get caught off guard and then there the fact u have to buy your own ticket and deal with jet lag if your parents will even consider letting you go in the first place(yeah not always an obstacle),then when u get there matches are for when u normally scheduled sleep.so grats for even making it na players and teams,i personally am proud of your representation:)

I was wondering the same thing. If i already have a Type 64 in my garage, and I choose the Type 64, will I get 3500 gold. I need to make sure before I actually do this so that I don't get screwed out of a tank.

"Top 10% 7 Days Premium, 500 Gold"

But "My Prizes" says I won 7 days and 1000 gold. Something is gibbled. Am I an anomaly, or do other 10%ers show the same? I'm not greedy, just want to point out the discrepancy.

Seriously??? That explains the tail end of the Twitch chat. I missed half the 3/4 match and the final due to a family obligation, so now I understand the context. Jeez, that has to be the most rotten luck ever in this game, at this level. Just, WOW.

They likely won't get around to paying out prizes - of any kind - for several days. I don't think that it is automated, or at least not completely.

I asked about that in another discussion, before I even looked at "My Prizes" (which I had forgotten about), and Hypnotik said I would get top 10%, not cumulative 10/20/30% prizing. I'm sure it will be clarified in the next few days, but I've asked in a couple of different locations just to make certain that they know, in case I am not the only one affected.

Hey all, I'm back in good old freedom-land, so here's a few answers to some of your questions...


"How do I claim my Prize?"
Click your name up top and then go to "My Prizes" to pick your prize tank (if you won one). The deadline is 5 days after the prizes appear on this page, after which you'll get the default tank for that group.


"Will I get gold if I already have the tank?"
Yes.


"When does the next season begin?"
The next Fantasy WGL season will go live about 7-10 days before the next WGL season begins.


"The prize table says X, but it shows I get Y... what's up with this?"
Looks like a mistake on my end when I wrote the automated prize script. The errors are in your favor (more gold), and it'd be rude of me to not honor my mistake. Enjoy the extra gold!


"When do I get my prize?"
Gold and premium will go out today. Tanks will go out as soon as the deadline passes or everyone in the payout group has chosen their prize (although the 2nd one is unlikely since it's a group of 100).



I'm glad you all enjoyed yourselves, congrats to all the winners, and I look forward to having you guys all play along next season of WGLNA!

I submitted a ticket about this. The paid refers to non-tank rewards. The tanks will be paid out when everyone selects the tank they want or five days after the event. So, you'll have your new tank soon.
