ozfortress Ultiduo makes its return during this off-season between our seasonal leagues! The 17th iteration of Ultiduo run by ozfortress, aptly named Ultiduo 17, will be a one-night cup that is the first part of our Autumn Action this off-season. Over the 16 iterations of Ultiduo we have seen countless duos compete to fight it out for glory, and we hope that Ultiduo 17 will be no different.
You can sign up for ozfortress Ultiduo 17 from now (Friday the 19th of May) up until Thursday the 25th of May 2023 at 11:59PM AEST. We aim to have seeding out by Friday the 26th of May with the cup live on Saturday the 27th of May.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will there be medals/badges?
Sadly, there will not be badges for Ultiduo 17.
Are we allowed substitutes or mercenaries?
No, both substitute players and mercenaries will not be allowed for the event. If one player on the team becomes unavailable, please contact an administrator as soon as possible, applicable only before the tournament starts.
How long can pauses last for?
Pauses for this tournament must not individually last longer than three minutes, or combined more than five minutes. Teams are allowed two pauses only. If there are any complications, contact your division's administrator immediately.
The other team isn't showing up, what do I do?
If the team is more than five minutes late, contact your division's administrator to claim a forfeit win.
What is the maximum amount of players per team?
As the name Ultiduo implies, you can only have two rostered players. In the event of needing to replace a player, one will need to be removed. See "Are we allowed substitutes or mercenaries?" above for more information.
How many teams go into Playoffs?
Four teams from each division will proceed to Playoffs in a Single Elimination fashion, with the losing teams being eliminated, and the winning teams proceeding to the Grand Finals. The Semi-Finals matchups will be the as follows: 1st vs. 3rd, 2nd vs. 4th.
Can we forfeit a match?
Forfeits are the same as the regular season, except on the second forfeit a team will be removed.
The voting threads for the end-of-season awards have now been posted! The votes must be sent through to your division administrator in a Discord DM using the correct formatting by Friday the 12th of May 2023 at midnight by every team captain.
