2017 PvP Championship

The 2017 PvP Championship was an offical Jagex hosted event streamed live on 12 August and 13 August 2017. It was an invitational PvP event made up of three separate brackets, competing for a total prize of $30,000 split across the three competitions.

The 1v1 bracket was made up of 32 players, the 5v5 bracket was made up of 16 teams of 5 players, and the 20v20 bracket was made up of 8 teams of 20 players, for a total of 272 players participating in the tournament. The competition used the ladder format, with the winner of each fight moving on and the loser being eliminated.

Players had until 27 July 2017 to apply to participate in the event, as participants were chosen via applications. Team applications required for the 5v5 and 20v20 brackets required an extra 3-5 and 5-10 players respectively to allow for substitutes.

The PvP Championship took place on tournament worlds and all combatants had access to max stats and max equipment.

The following restrictions were in place on gear and inventory set-up: a maximum of four Saradomin brews and restricted access to the Elysian spirit shield within the 1v1 bracket, a maximum of six Saradomin brews and access to all gear within the 5v5 bracket, a maximum of eight Saradomin brews and access to all gear within the 20v20 bracket.

Clan wars capes were equipped in the jaw slot to provide the team cape effect as well as a glow around the player's feet to help distinguish the two teams in each fight. The fights took place within the Clan Wars Plateau map.
