WAYS TO WIN
At LANdu, we offer a variety of different gaming competitions to suit all skill levels and interests. Whether you’re a seasoned gamer or a casual player, we’ve got something for you! Here’s an overview of the different types of competitions we offer:
Tournaments
Our tournaments are our biggest and most prestigious competitions, featuring longer play times and bigger prizes. These competitions are designed for the most skilled and competitive players, and are run with strict rulesets to ensure fair play.
Fun Competitions
Our fun comps are smaller, more casual competitions that offer a chance for any gamer to win a prize! We run many more of these competitions than our tournaments, so there are plenty of opportunities to get involved. These competitions are typically run with less strict rulesets, and are created to allow almost anyone to compete.
Door Prizes
At LANdu, we want to reward our attendees just for showing up! Every ticket holder is automatically entered into our door prize giveaway, which offers a chance to win prizes without having to compete in a tournament. We also have various random event day giveaways, quizzes, and challenges that all attendees can participate in.
Raffle
We host a charity raffle where proceeds will go to Beyond Blue. Anyone can be a winner! Raffle tickets can be purchased at the event, and the more tickets you buy, the greater your chances of winning.
