Tournament Format Changes
From the news yesterday: “It’s been rather busy around here, what with all the changes being made to the Altador Cup tournament… What? You haven’t heard about the changes? Well – I will try to give you the quick run down. Now listen carefully! The Altador Cup officials have decided to change the tournament style up a bit, I hear. The biggest change is that there will no longer be a Finals bracket. Instead, there will be four rounds with each round lasting six days long– hold on a moment, will you? I need to take care of something. Oh good, you’re still here. Anyway, as I was saying, each round will consist of three brackets with six teams in each bracket. And yes, don’t worry, we still have all

Hey, this is Niku, and I’m going to try and write a series! Before I try to submit this to the Neopian Times, I wanted you guys to see it first. It is about the Altador Cup, after all. :) Also, I would like to note this story is fictional. It contains real elements, like the Altador Cup and Team Moltara, but they are used in a fictional story. Enjoy! Click. Zoom in. Zoom out. Switch. Repeat. This is my job. I am paid by the minute to perform these simple actions over and over again. Although… they’re not as simple as I have made them sound. It’s not just about clicking or zooming and repeating. I have to take extreme care to detail. For I am Gamma. I

Alright, Well surprisingly enough, We might see a repeat winner this year. By team that just won 2 years ago. However, If they don’t win, A team that has never placed before(or even been in 1st tier) will win! And if Kreludor loses to Maraqua we will have our first year(other than the first year)

Team rosters revealed Five teams have announced changes to their rosters in the lead up to this years Altador Cup. Team Altador announced it traded off right defender Timu with Team Shenkuu’s right forward Foltaggio. “This has changed our team formation from 1+3 to 2+2,” Altador team captain “Trapper” Remis said, “we are hoping this will give us the extra firepower needed to get off the bottom of the ladder. “We cannot keep using the excuse that we are rusty after 1,000 years slumber in the seventh tourney. “Timu went to Shenkuu for a spiritual meditation journey and fell in love with the land. When she came back, she pleaded to our management to negotiate a trade. “Team Shenkuu seemed more than happy to accept Timu into their team. We wish Timu all

Altador.com Now Open – More To Come If you tried to visit our WordPress URL, you probably noticed that it now re-directs to our new site :) Altador.com is now up and running. Over the next few days you will probably notice some more minor changes being made to the site. If you notice any technical difficulties, the best way to inform me is to PM me (Alex) on the forums. Recently in the news TNT announced that the Altador Cup 5 prize shop will be closing on MAY 25th. This most likely means the Altador Cup sign-ups or actual tournament will be starting on the 25th of May. That’s less than one month away!

Small Teams and SOTAC Hi! For those of you who don’t know me, I’m Chaos. I was a regular poster here last year, as well as the year before that. This is my 6th year with Team Darigan Citadel. I reached All-Star for the last two years in a row, and levels 18 and 16 the two years before that, so I’m trying to do well this year, but… Well, I’d planned on posting here more often, but honestly, I’m not quite as into the Altador Cup this year as I usually am. Because of the new YYB. Now, I know many of you are probably tired of complaints about the new YYB, so I’ll just say this: aside from the game being frustrating and simply NOT fun, it really hurts my hand and
