Duel of Fists Fall ART Cancellation

[Nero Zhir]

Unfortunately due to some circumstances we are going to be cancelling the Duel of Fists Fall All-Ranks Tournament. We know that a lot of players look forward to this each cycle for the differing game modes, prizes and the excitement that it brings and that there will be quite a few upset members of our community who read this. We are sorry that this is such short notice and it is abrupt and we intend to make it up to you all for our next ART. There are a few factors that overlapped at once that led to this decision but ultimately we feel it's best to suspend this one ART instead of potentially running a sub-par event for you all. We hope that IFL will provide all of the opportunities for the community to come together and enjoy each other's time and hope that you can understand.

Thank you all,
DoF Team

As a result of the cancellation of the November ART, the premiere prize Fistmelda's Tusk was not earned through tournament. As such, Fistmelda's Tusk will remain vacant for the rest of this cycle and will become available again at the February 2025 planned ART. Em Locke, the most recent Tusk holder, has been informed of this decision and understands that any perks (with one exception) that come with the title are no longer available to them, and the standings will reflect the vacancy this week. Em Locke, however, will retain the #1 seeding in the next ART should they choose to participate (as the Februrary 2025 ART will be the next one).

DoF Staff, as a team, will determine the format of the next ART.
