Hey everyone,

 

DC Halo, a local not-for-profit organization, is hosting its grand finals for the DC Halo Summer Throwdown this Friday at the Microsoft Store in Tyson's Corner. There is no entry fee, free food and drinks are included, and this specific event has $1200 in prizes to award to the top 8 finishers! So far, there are around 30 players attending and are looking for and additional 10 or so. Rules are very similar to V4 FFA settings with the addition of loadouts for the Carbine, Light Rifle, DMR, and Assault Rifle. For this event only, because it's the grand finals, the brackets will work a little bit differently. The top 8 players on based on points will be waiting in the second round with a BYE in the first. The other 32 players will duke it out across 4 heats where the top 2 from each heat advance to the second round. The top 4 from both second round heats will advance into the finals and earn one of the following prizes!

 

Prizes:

• 1st Place: Microsoft Surface RT Tablet
• 2nd Place: GAEMS Vanguard PGE
• 3rd Place: Astro A50 Wireless Headset & Mixamp
• 4th Place: Xbox 360 4GB & Kinect
• 5th Place: 12 Month Xbox Live Subscription
• 6th Place: 4000 Microsoft Points

Our goal as an organization is to promote and showcase the surrounding local communities of competitive Halo players. Keep an eye out for D.C. Halo events to be announced in the very near future!
