What is the US Masters?
The US Masters is a 64 player national invitational Kings of War tournament. It is organized by a Masters Council of regional representatives and held in a different location every year. The goal is to support the development of a national competitive Kings of War community, and bring together the best Kings of War players from around the country to battle it out for the title of Master. Despite being a battle focused event, where you might expect to find a cut-throat atmosphere, the US Masters has earned a reputation for also being one of the most fun and friendly events you can attend.
How can I Qualify?
Players can qualify by attending qualifying events in their region and earning points. Points are awarded based on how highly you place at qualifying events. Each region does it a little differently, but a player’s total points are usually based on their top 2 or 3 events. The top 8 players in each region at the end of the season qualify for the Masters. If you have questions about how to qualify in your region, contact your Regional Chair.
