Invitations have started going out for the three 2020 ‘Ladder Legend’ tournaments:

Ladder Legend 9x9, Ladder Legend 13x13 & Ladder Legend 19x19

Further changes in ladder positions will not change the order of invitation for this years events.

Click here to see order of invitation 'snapshots'

Last years inaugural event was hard fought by the participants and well received by onlookers so I invite you all to enjoy this year’s offering.

When the tournaments are full, I’ll announce the participants HERE and it will begin. :smiley:

The 13th cycle of OGS Kuksu Main Title Tournament is going to begin this month. Please sign up here before June 12, 2020. (189 players have signed up so far!)

Note: Kuksu (Main) is different from all the other titles since it’s in League format and you only need to play 1 round per cycle. To simulate the format, multiple round-robin tournaments will be set up after April 1st and you’ll need to accept the invitations from the tournament directors then to participate. For details of the grouping method, please refer to the rules , with the change that (1) head-to-head points, and (2) status (disqualified/resigned) are considered in the league tie breaker.

I signed up for the kuksu tournament thanks for telling me.(btw I am typing this so you won’t get more then three replyies in a row)
