In the beautiful city of Melbourne, the Australian Cyber League will host their 3rd tournament for the 2012 season. The tourney will take place at the Moonee Valley Racecourse, Melbourne and as usual you will see a plethora of competitive titles such as Starcraft 2, Halo Reach, Modern Warfare 3, Fifa 12 and the ACL also added some new games like Gears of War 3.

You shouldn't miss the ACL, because it is the most prestigious and competitive national gaming league in Australia, where the best Australian gamer will compete against each other. One big highlight of the ACL Melbourne are the Blizzard World Championship Series Qualifiers, where competitors will fight for 4 spots to the Blizzard WCS Nationals event. At the Australian Blizzard WCS Nationals event players will battle it out for $6000 worth of cash and prizes and then the Top 6 competitors will fight in the Oceanic Finals for a massive $12000!

Annother big highlight will be the CoD: Modern Warfare 3 4v4 tournament. The organisation "apeX" just picked up the Australian top COD team "Frenetic Array" around team manager, "Billy 'Bundo' Wall". The big rival is "Mindfreak eSports" which will attend, also like the ever present and consistent "Cruelty Incarnate".

The rest of the teams are other familiar faces from the scene in new teams or pick up rosters, because the winner will "just" take home $1,000, it's hard to find organisations who are supporting Australian teams.

The ACL will be streamed live by their partner CouchWarriors. CouchWarriors has partnered with ACL Melbourne to provide a fantastic weekend of Evo, casuals, fun tournaments and silly games.

"Bring yourself and your friends and set yourself up in front of the big projector screen to see all the action go down while playing, practicing and supporting your Australian troops going over to try for the crown! All information about the Evo Stream Party at ACL Melbourne can be found here "
