2012 4chan Winter Cup |
The 2011 4chan Summer Cup was the inaugural 4chan Cup competition. It was originally called the 4chan Board World Cup. It lasted from August 6 to August 9, 2011. It was an overnight sensation, as dozens of /sp/-goers and denizens of other boards flocked to Germanbro's stream.
This tournament used the double-elimination bracket format. A loss would drop teams down into a spot in the Loser's Bracket, determined by how far they advanced in the Winner's Bracket. If a team loses in the Loser's Bracket, they are eliminated from the tournament. It also used the three gold-standard players system, with each team allowed to use three players with each stat rated 99. All other players were standard and were rated at 66.
The Original Sixteen teams competed at this tournament. As there was no previous cup winner, the tournament was hosted on neutral ground. Teams were also unseeded as there was no ranking system in place at this time.
Spectators watched /a/ take the Summer Cup, defeating /ck/ in a thrilling two-game final, winning 1-0 and 3-0. /sp/ came third while /mu/ finished fourth. The winner of the Golden Boot was Nachos, with an unknown number of goals. Detailed results and video footage of this tournament are practically non-existant. The only surviving footage is of some laughing Ganons.
