Last weekend, eight top competitive Total War: WARHAMMER II players went head to head to decide who was worthy of calling themselves The Everchosen. Hosted live from the Creative Assembly studio, the Everchosen Summer Invitational saw brutal battles, exciting showmatches, and exclusive giveaways – but how did it all unfold?

Day One

The first day of the Everchosen Summer Invitational saw Ninjahund fall to Tlaxtlan Soothsayer, who took the matchup in a clean 2-0. Shetland Apache also defeated his opponent Dahv Players 2-0, followed by a bloody free-for-all streamer showmatch between Diction, Fairlight_Excalibur, Strippin, and BurkeBlack.

Next up was Shadow Online Gaming versus Sekarma, with Sekarma taking the win 2-1. Finally, Loremaster of Sotek and Romulan Dawg faced off in the last matchup of the day, with an incredibly close fight ultimately resulting in the latter coming out on top 2-1. We also pitted our very own Dogbert up against commentator Italian Spartacus for your amusement, rounding the day off with a live interview with a Total War dev where we revealed the brand-new spectator mode.

Day two kicked off with Romulan Dawg going up against Shetland Apache, the former ultimately coming out on top 2-1. Next up it was Sekarma versus Txlatlan Soothsayer, resulting in a clean sweep for Soothsayer and a spot in the grand final. The Total War content creators showmatch was next on the agenda, with Lionheart, JackieFish, Nerdragefitness, and Indypride fighting it out for supremacy in a free-for-all battle.

Shetland Apache and Sekarma competed for third place next, with Shetland Apache picking up a cash prize for his efforts. At last came the best-of-five grand final between Tlaxtlan Soothsayer and Romulan Dawg. After an intense series of battles, it was Tlaxtlan Soothsayer who took the first-place prize 3-1 as well as the $750 first prize – congratulations, Tlaxtlan Soothsayer!
