The American Invitational began yesterday. Featuring a mix of well known / up and coming players from North and South America, the tournament will prove to be quite exciting!



The American Invitational was created by TL.net member Jesuscraft in the hopes of giving a nice tournament for players from both North and South America. 16 players from all across the Americas were invited to play in this tournament, which will span 1-2 weeks. The first round of this event was played yesterday while the Quarter Finals will be played this coming weekend.
