On Monday, December 10th, at 9:30pm EST, come and experience the most competitive RGL.gg 7v7 Prolander Grand Finals to date! Over two months ago six teams set out on a quest for the crown, but from the start there were two clear front runners: Cat Noises, the longest running team in RGL Prolander history, and The Cowardly Dogs, who had some notable pickups this season of b4nny on Scout and Nursey on Medic.

Now these teams will meet on the biggest stage of them all, with a $4,000 total prizepool up for grabs--this is definitely a match you do not want to miss out on! Watch it this Monday at twitch.tv/eXtvESports.

On the 15th and 16th of December, from 1:00 - 5:00 pm EST, TFConnect is hosting a Highlander tournament to raise money for the SpecialEffect charity! During the event, they'll also have item giveaways and a live game night with the community!

The event will be streamed live on Byte's Twitch channel, and donations to SpecialEffect will be received through their Justgiving page. Get more information here!
