Good Evening Everyone,
We’ve got some exciting news that could mark the beginning of a brand-new arc for base JKA!
As many of you know, we've been working hard to get Jedi Knight: Academy hosted on Faceit—and we’re thrilled to announce that we’ve officially been accepted!
That said, Faceit is watching our activity levels closely, so the more engagement we show, the more support and perks we could unlock in the future.
Our First Faceit Event: Jedi Championship Cup 3v3
Format: Best of 3 (Bo3)
Rules: Same as our previous ladder—details will be posted soon in a permanent location.
Map Pool: To be announced later this week.
Signups: Open now and will remain open until next weekend.
Goal: 16 Teams
And that's not all...
Thanks to Banhammer, we'll also be rolling out brand new servers specifically for Faceit. These servers will have built-in packet detection (automatically identifying spikes over 100 without the need for a Ybe proxy), done entirely server-side with zero impact on gameplay. A huge upgrade for our competitive scene!
Please follow our Faceit page and help us show them that JKA is alive and thriving! https://www.faceit.com/en/organizers/09aa9fbd-b491-4b6c-90c9-ebcd13958fc2/Jedi%20Academy%20League
Lastly, a massive thank you to everyone who helped make this happen, with a special shoutout to the following people: @Hammond (Hell Raiser) @Jrrrr @Kain @banhammer @robb @Till
Let’s make this a new era for base JKA.
