Location

23 Patriot Pl, Foxborough, MA 02035
Patriot's Place Website

Helix eSports Patriots Place is a great location with many shopping stores, dining places, and activities around the venue which can be viewed in the link above. The venue will also have bleachers for spectators, as well as the main stage for a better viewing experience.

Confirmed Dates and Structure of Tournament

The RGL LAN will be scheduled to occur on the weekend of August 6th to August 7th (Saturday and Sunday). This will be three weeks after the regular season to allow the playoff teams to prepare by booking flights and hotels. As it is being held on a weekend, it will be a two-day event. Day 1 will cover the first round and semifinals of playoffs. Day 2 will cover the lower bracket finals and grand finals.

(Note: Schedule might have minor changes prior to the start of LAN)

Fundraiser and LAN Merch!

To help fund the LAN, we are launching new t-shirt designs, along with NEW exclusive stickers and pins! Each merch item will be worth a certain number of ‘assists’, which will be used to track donor perks, such as signed merch, posters, and more! There will also be exciting community stretch goals, including a ghost pepper challenge! Check lan.rgl.gg/shop for more info!

Spectator Passes

Spectator passes will be sold at $20.00 at the venue and will be good for the weekend.

PC and Peripherals

32 Gaming PCs with monitors (headset, mouse, keyboard, and mouse pad provided to every setup as needed). Players are encouraged to bring their own peripherals. Players will be able to import a USB Flash Drive into the PC for custom configs and UI.

Cost

The cost of entry for Invite playoff teams will be free, including access to PCs during the entire two-day tournament. Spectator passes will be $20 for everyone else.

Prize Pool Breakdown

1. $1620
2. $1500
3. $1400
4. $1300

Payouts for the top 4 playoff Invite teams have been adjusted for this LAN season to help cover the team's expenses to attend LAN.

BrockDef picking up a hoodie and some stickers, did you guys screen print those or are they DTG prints?

From the teespring page:

https://community.teespring.com/answers/production-printing-methods/- Screen Printing is generally what we use for higher quantity orders. Each color or “layer” of a design will get its own screen, created by the printing facility. The inks are then pressed into the fabric of the product through the screens.

- When items are printed Digitally, the design which was uploaded to the website will be scanned, analyzed, and prepared by a computer system. Once it has been vectorized by our team to make sure there are no imperfections, it will be applied directly to the products offered on the campaign.

It seems to be technically both, depending on the type, quantity, number of colors on the shirt, etc. Everything but the "Overgrown Rocket Launcher" merch design are likely to be DTG since it only has 3 colors, whereas the others have 5 or more colors.

SpadesWill there be merch in person?

Yes, there will be merch in person. People can also choose pickup as an option during check-out instead of shopping if they want to reserve merch items from shopify (not teespring).

Quick PSA

If you plan on attending the Helix LAN, we suggest players and spectators get hotels and flights as soon as possible.

As the New England Patriots training camp is starting next week, this will likely will cause hotel rates to go up. Flights will get more expensive as the dates go by as well.

Draft Cup Conclusion

Thanks to all the players for participating in the event and everyone who came out to support the fundraiser.

We managed to raise $1,141.48 so far in the cup! Proceeds will go to help cover the expenses of the teams attending the LAN, as well as the production team.

If you are interested in still supporting the LAN, we have a shop here where you can buy LAN merchandise or donate. "Assist Points" are points that can be redeemed and unlocked for each tier in the image below. We are now currently at 1242 assists!
