Description
An entry-level tournament for Tak. "Beginner" can be a bit vague, so we are defining "beginner" as someone that cannot beat (or struggles to beat) IntuitionBot on https://www.playtak.com. If you have never played online, or never played that bot, you are still welcome to compete! Just be sure to familiarize yourself with playtak.com and our Discord server before your first match.

You do NOT need to be a member of the US Tak Association to participate.

You do NOT need to be a resident of the US to participate.
