Survival of the Fittest: The Last Stand was a Survival of the Fittest tournament. The grand finale took place on October 24.

Overview[]

230 participants came together in 6 man Tribes to compete for a $60,000 prize pool, making this event the biggest SOTF tournament to date.[1] This tournament was different from past Survival of the Fittest events by having improved competition balance, four new evolution events, and three boss creatures.
