| Category | Who | Why |
|---|
| best_new_tournament | 2v2 World Championship 2024 | Biggest ever team Risk tournament |
| best_new_tournament | 2v2s Main Server | good settings. Fun times. |
| best_new_tournament | 5RR | Same reasoning as for tournament of the year. |
| best_new_tournament | 5RR | based only on the innovation factor. Bring basically a dead game mode into a the competitive scene |
| best_new_tournament | Big Maps Open | Didnt shy away from the idea that Big Maps can get ugly in tourney play. Crackle did a great job putting this together!
|
| best_new_tournament | Blizzard Open | The Blizzard Open was the first of its kind tournament centered around blizzards, as well as a novel brackets approach to maintain competitive integrity as well as determine cuts. I had a blast participating in it, and the settings were top tier that led to some very interesting and competitive games. |
| best_new_tournament | Blizzard Open | Loved the settings |
| best_new_tournament | Blizzards | Only one that comes to my mind |
| best_new_tournament | Blizzards Open | Because |
| best_new_tournament | Blizzards Open | It had a unique format with unique brackets, unique advancement, etc. It also beat the gimmicks craze to give us great blizzards settings. |
| best_new_tournament | Blizzards Open | New and fun tournament with decent settings and the first triple-bracket system |
| best_new_tournament | Blizzards Open | Same reasons as my other submission! |
| best_new_tournament | Blizzards open | Yes |
| best_new_tournament | Classic fixed | interesting to watch how it played out |
| best_new_tournament | Coddle the Zombies | An all-zombies tournament! What more needs to be said? |
| best_new_tournament | Coddle the Zombies | Theres still 4 months left this year but I feel confident that CtZ was the best new tournament this year. Marcellus made incredible effort with settings, stalemate rules and the new rule that your are not allowed to attack zombies on turn one to prevent infections. The tournament was an absolute blast to play in |
| best_new_tournament | Gangs of Discord | Weighted points (better opponents = more points), social strategy (alliances + VC), interesting & unique team strategy elements (hits), creative & smart bounty incentives without tying them to the win condition (!= points), massive prize |
| best_new_tournament | GM tourney(s) | They have come a long way |
| best_new_tournament | Meta Meme Tournament | Best Tournament Ever! |
| best_new_tournament | META Memes | Epic. Just EPIC concept! |
| best_new_tournament | Mr.Evolve | Truly Random Evolved Meta settings recieved so much support in its first ever season. It was genuinely much bigger than any expectations we had for it and a massive success! With Pete as a cohost for the finale, the hype around it was astronomical. People are begging for a season 2 soon |
| best_new_tournament | Perfect Play | Everything was perfect, except for the no-shows (needs to be invitational imo) |
| best_new_tournament | Perfect Play | Very good format |
| best_new_tournament | Perfect Play Tournament | The best format - wins instead of points, 30 games are more than enough to qualify skill |
| best_new_tournament | Perfect Play Tournament | I think its the best tournament for new players that needs to be familiar with the tournament scene, settings , strategies ... 30 games of experience ive really enjoyed it . |
| best_new_tournament | Pharoah pyramid Tournament in the MAIN server | New and exciting point system and structure. Actually, liked it a lot. |
| best_new_tournament | The PP(Perfect Play) Tournament | Has the settings for new players to learn and evolve |
| best_new_tournament | The Risk Tournament | Although its only in its first few rounds, I am extremely happy to see a tournament reminiscent of the old tournament structures! Its already becoming one of my favourite new tournaments of the year! |
| best_new_tournament | The Risk Tournament (The Kill Pete Strategy Server) | A very well rounded tournament with good player count, structured format and solid settings plus the qualifier that helps reduce no-shows and noob-slams early on. Prizes arent that good compared to KPO and some other Tourneys, but that doesnt influence the worth of this Tourney, but rather the Potential it can achieve as a whole, which is why Im giving it a nominee. The name is very cliche though, I must say lol |
| best_new_tournament | Truly Random Evolved Meta | Better than standard meta settings (most enjoyable settings to play in ranked) and i did well in that tourney so that helps too :) |
| best_new_tournament | Truly Random Evolved Meta | Its the best! |
| best_new_tournament | VIP | Fun idea, well run |
| best_new_tournament | VIP Invitational | Super high standard of players |

| moment_of_the_year | JJBruh (link: https://clips.twitch.tv/GiantManlyWallabyPupper-AvdIIhHr0DSLCihA) | JJ freaks out about losing 2 v 1 like a Neandertal to kill Red.
YOU FRICKING SUCK JJ... FRICK! |
| moment_of_the_year | JJbruhh (link: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2307526208, Finals timestamp: 01:55:00 - 02:41:30) | Nominating JJ because of crazy drama his Rivertown Invitational S4 experienced in the Finals, purely because of him lmao
So basically, JJ and Speedseppe was the Finals, Speedseppe got the UI bug where he couldnt see troop counts nor anything on the right side and wanted to restart, but it continued and later on JJ managed to pull off a comeback in the game from Seppes dominating position and at Round 5 it ended in a tie, both from amount of territories and troops for Both JJ and Seppe. Majority of the public were certain Seppe won and should have won, but JJ persisted that he won himself, by arguing about it for at least 20 min straight and in conclusion once he checked the Vod and decided that the tiebreaker was gonna be overall income count (which he though he got 41 and Seppe only 32 overall), he decided that he should be crowned the winner, which he did (and it looked bias as expected) and everyone started to call it RIGGED after that and wanted Seppe to win or at least give him a Rematch, but JJ didnt let that happen.
Because of this Event, Seppe became Peoples winner, while JJ a mere scammer and Mr Rigged Man FOREVA and EVA!
I hope you enjoyed the story!

| player_of_the_year | iammomba | the goat |
| player_of_the_year | IamMomba | Absolute beast, great in tournaments, and overtook arco aswell in rankings |
| player_of_the_year | IamMomba | Why not |
| player_of_the_year | IamMomba | Finally overtook Arco in FFA leaderboard for #1. Also won 3 tournaments this year (as of writing this submission) |
| player_of_the_year | iammomba | made a ton of finals and made it to #1 |
| player_of_the_year | IamMomba | 1- Hes a fantastic player overall
2- He dethroned Arco, the long lasting king of sets on 3, in the Sabr ranking
3- Hes MY player in the PRT League team and merit all my support! ;) |
| player_of_the_year | IamMomba | Well... he kept winning. And making finals. |
| player_of_the_year | IAmMomba | Multiple finals and with Silent Legend the only person who comes into sniffing range of Arco |
| player_of_the_year | Idan | Great player |
| player_of_the_year | Jax Wylde | Massive commitment to the game and a lot of success |
| player_of_the_year | Jax Wylde | He dominated on the PRT Tour |
| player_of_the_year | Jax Wylde | Jax has consistently put up great tournament results and is always practicing. A deserved nominee methinks |
| player_of_the_year | Jax Wylde | He is clearly the best, look at his spot on sabr and playing tourneys ratio. Yeah and he creates a lot of practice lobbies so he is the best for me :) |
| player_of_the_year | Jax Wylde and IamMomba | Co award cause both had similar levels of success, with Jax having more very high middle success and Momba having more championships and finals. |
| player_of_the_year | Kylted | Best player to upload videos on Youtube. Very entertaining. |
| player_of_the_year | Kylted | He is strategically at the top of the profession along with bringing a bit of entertainment. The only one in his league is Vampire chicken. Pete definitely opened the door for all the risk youtubers but Kyle has continued to be the highest level along with highest volume at the same time. |
| player_of_the_year | Kylted | Kylted is a beast at risk. And the best player ive seen. |
| player_of_the_year | LilBananaJuice | Has improved greatly this year, now rivalling some of the best |
| player_of_the_year | Lina | Over the course of the year she has been the most consistent player on the scene - making game winning decisions at the correct time so often cannot be underestimated - a true champion |
| player_of_the_year | Lina | Shes super clever, crafty, sneaky, tall, talented and also humble. She has been on top form this year. |
| player_of_the_year | Lina Kitty | Lina has been figting in the top in almost every tournament she has played in this year, dominating the GG league. Total of 9 finals this year! |
| player_of_the_year | Nise | I believe him taking a novice like me under his wing to go top 10 in a 2v2 tournament against the top players in the world is substantial proof of his skill. Back to back to back wins against top 100 players, including the number 1 arco. 2v2 isnt his only trick though. Hes consistently placing high or winning some of the most respectable tournaments in the scene. For these reasons I vote Nise for player of the year. |
| player_of_the_year | Pete | I love him |
| player_of_the_year | Pete | He is great at connecting with his fans, always helping risk putting others before self thanks Pete for all you do brother. |
| player_of_the_year | Silent Legend | won FFA S1 2024
finalist in KPO s2
Finalist in classic Tournament |
| player_of_the_year | Silent Legend | His resume speaks for itself but heavily present everywhere and in the top tournaments with great results. Special Year for him I guess too. Could have named several players here! |
| player_of_the_year | Sir Tyler | Incredible tournament performances this year, notably finalist in the FFA summer/fall World Championships and the 2024 Classic World Championships. |
| player_of_the_year | SpeedSeppe | Cause hes not that bad :p |
| player_of_the_year | Speedster | from playing solo in FFA to playing all of the team risk, speed always proves himself to be one of the top players while having fun throughout |
| player_of_the_year | Speedster | Speedster has continuously proven why he is the greatest meta settings player with his YouTube channel posting predominantly ranked meta. He also has been in many an FFA final this year and has proven his team Risk dominance over a number of servers. He is also genuinely one of the nicest people around. |
| player_of_the_year | Speedsterino | Speed de goat |
| player_of_the_year | Xykron | Consistently standing out. Hes constantly underestimated |

| staff_of_the_year | Marcellus Fuse | settings goat |
| staff_of_the_year | Marcellus Fuse | The effort and thoughtfulness he puts in to testing settings is unmatched. His idea to have themed winner-advances rounds in FFA is a great one that (in my opinion) forces players to be good at all types of tournament settings to continue to advance. |

| staff_of_the_year | OliveXC |
I always find him very helpful and I can ask him anything. He always genuinely takes time for you and thinks along with you! |
| staff_of_the_year | Parlox | Parloxs commitment to the risk community cant be overstated. As the host of the most prestigious risk tournament (GM tournament), he is committed to providing a top tier experience to all participants, and is constantly looking to improve the format/settings. Additionally, he also hosted the Perfect Play tournament, a novel tournament both in its format (10 weeks, no cuts) and its introduction of alternate win conditions to address stalemates. |
| staff_of_the_year | Parlox | Hes a beautiful human being, who deserves some love <3 |
| staff_of_the_year | Simone (Aka MoneeMonee) | for being the sole reason kyles house isnt on fire during his subathon, and putting up with all of our chat shenanigans while her boyfriend entertains us |
| staff_of_the_year | Speedster | I couldnt have found a warmer welcome in to the community than what I got from speed. I had no prior knowledge of the inner machinations of discord, and he helped me get set up so I could start competing. Nothing but love |
| staff_of_the_year | Stacey | Seems to be very nice to people |
| staff_of_the_year | Xerokee | Does an incredible job keeping things organized and being available when needed |
| staff_of_the_year | Xerokee | A very hardworking person in general. Helps with a lot of moderation stuff behind the scenes that no one is aware of for the most part, does a lot of Tourney work as well, mostly for PRT and Risk World Cup. Very underrated compared to other Staffs in terms of getting the credit! |
| staff_of_the_year | Xerokee | Has done lots of backend work, helped with Tourney organisations almost everywhere and just overall a very great and cool person, whos always trying his best to accommodate others before himself! |
| staff_of_the_year | Xerokee and BrutalPipe | I give co awards because Brutal runs the best server and genuinely cares about running fair tournaments, but mainly about the players within the tournaments. Xerokee for the other cause he does a butt load of the behind the scenes work, and rarely ever gets recognized for it. |
| tournament_of_the_year | 1v1 World Championship 2024 | Best 1v1 tourney |
| tournament_of_the_year | 5AS Season 12 | High standard of players invited |
| tournament_of_the_year | 5RR | So well organized, researched, effort placed into scoring, and made a nearly competitively viable variation of 5RR where 5th and 6th position didnt just win every game. This tournament deserves its flowers, breaking the mold of most tournaments. |
| tournament_of_the_year | Assassins | Was my first time and for sure one of the best and most enjoyable tournaments for me |
| tournament_of_the_year | Blizzard Tourney | I really do love Blizzards no matter what! Its between BlizzardsTourney and Assasins on the 2v2 channel |
| tournament_of_the_year | Blizzards Open | A perfect combination of skilled players, fun settings and good structure made this really enjoyable as a participant |
| tournament_of_the_year | Blizzards Open | Inventive format, fun settings, challenging moments. |
| tournament_of_the_year | Capture the Flag | New innovative format |
| tournament_of_the_year | Casual League | Best 1v1 league where players can play games whenever they want |
| tournament_of_the_year | Clan Wars Season 2 | Popular team event, brought together a lot of players and had a great logo |
| tournament_of_the_year | Cuddle the Zombies | It is just too fun |
| tournament_of_the_year | FFA 2024 B | Best settings, format overall. Also adding the 70% reset in the finals was great!
Huge shout out to Marcellus |
| tournament_of_the_year | FFA 2024 B | My first tournament, excellent settings, great organization, and overall very well-run. |
| tournament_of_the_year | FFA 2024 B Tournament | A lot of effort was put into completely overhauling the structure, as well as developing new and exciting settings. This led to a very robust tournament with plenty of opportunities for players to demonstrate their risk ability and perform at the highest level. |
| tournament_of_the_year | FFA season 2 | Good settings that improve over every Round, addition of winner advances part, unique finals format that reduces likelihood of World Champion being decided by a feed. |
| tournament_of_the_year | FFA Season 3 | The revamped version of FFA including the winners advance format for top 48 I really enjoyed! |
| tournament_of_the_year | FFA WC 2024 B | Best FFA WC to date - after a few seasons of declining quality, this tournament revived the FFA WC and turned it into a much more fun and competitive event |
| tournament_of_the_year | Gangs of Discord | A weighted points system, rewarding winning against stronger players. Incredibly interesting and unique team & strategy mechanics. Encourages social strategy element (VC, alliances...). Creative kills system for encouraging kills without it being directly tied to the win condition (!= points). Massive prize pool brings interest to Risk
Note: This is before the tournament starts but itll be before the end of the year |
| tournament_of_the_year | GM S11 | Most prestigious, high-skill tournament |
| tournament_of_the_year | GM Tournament | best players. best settings |

| tournament_of_the_year | KPO 2 | Its great |
| tournament_of_the_year | KPO 2 | Another huge Tourney, what else is there to say? Other Tourneys are nothing compared to the scale this was! |
| tournament_of_the_year | KPO 2 | Kill Pete Open 2 was the biggest and longest tournament to date, with 1500+ participants and a lot of great play. |
| tournament_of_the_year | KPO 2 (Kill Pete Open) | The biggest and the most sabr rated Tourney to date, even beating GM Tourney in terms of sabr points. It has most rounds out of any other Tourney, biggest player pool, arguably good to great settings for the most part and largest prize pool ever. Easily nominee of the year! |
| tournament_of_the_year | KPO2 | Biggest tournament ever. Great settings. |
| tournament_of_the_year | KPO2 | I believe this qualifies as a 2024 tournament? KPO2 outdid an already fantastic KPO1. More players and doubling the amount of players moving into winner adv made this a fantastic tournament. This is the gold standard for points-format tournaments |
| tournament_of_the_year | Main Server Casual League | Innovative new way of hosting a 1v1 ladder/league with no scheduling and only the 5 latest games counting, and resets every quarter. |
| tournament_of_the_year | meta meme tournament | Best tournament ever! |
| tournament_of_the_year | Meta Meme tournament | I have already voted for this one, but i called it Johans meme olympics, just want to make sure it goes through |
| tournament_of_the_year | Meta Meme Tournament | fun, not too serious, everyone had a good time |
| tournament_of_the_year | Meta meme tournament | the most fun tournament so far! |
| tournament_of_the_year | Meta meme tourney | At its basic core it was all about fun and enjoying the game of risk - very underrated I feel - loved it |
| tournament_of_the_year | Meta-meme | This tournament was genuinely one of the most enjoyable tournaments that hit the scene. Best in this case equates to innovation and creativity that led to an absolute blast by a large proportion of participants |
| tournament_of_the_year | Olympics | Not the most prestigious/ popular event but thought it was really well run w good settings |
| tournament_of_the_year | Pete | Pet has done 3 tournaments this year. The Kill Pete open 2, Team risk tourney, the risk tourney. Every tourney that he organized, are probably the most accessible to the risk takers new or not. Congrats Pete |
| tournament_of_the_year | PRT Champions Tournament | It has forced an entirely new meta at the highest of levels of play. It has really shown what happens when the playing field is above the skill ceiling. |
| tournament_of_the_year | PRT League | Changing the Risk landscape |
| tournament_of_the_year | Risk Rivertown Invitational S4 | This was the best tourney ever |
| tournament_of_the_year | The Perfect Play Tournament (PP) / Parlox | Well i think that tournament has the best settings for fairly new players like me to learn and evolve... |
| tournament_of_the_year | Trem | it was fire and inspired the attack red song |
| tournament_of_the_year | VIP Tourney | Its round 2 and my entire group is already like top 25 Sabr... the settings are great as well. Good advancement, triple elimination, and its a new tourney so bonus points there |
