Q u o t e:
When will the Tournament Realms open?
The Tournament realms will open at approximately 10am CET on the 25th of February.

Will the realm be accessible for practice and warm-up before the beginning of the Tournament?
Yes. The first phase of the tournament is called the practise period and should last for 2 weeks. This phase will start up when the realms become accessible for play on the 25th of February.

The FAQ says "After the six-week online qualifier concludes" - what date does this mean exactly?
The tournament should start on February 25th and last for six weeks. The current plan is that the realms are being brought offline again on April 7th at 9pm CET.
