If you are concerned that it may be too late to start taking part in the Carbon League because players like "basker2b3" already have 30 points, don't be, because there are also three VIP freerolls that will take place during the league and they each award 120 league points to the winner along with the generous free added $1,000 prize pool. These freerolls cost 50 Carbon VIP points to enter, and are held on Thursday, Nov. 3; Thursday, Dec. 1; and Thursday, Dec. 29.
Make sure you play every week to give yourself the best chance at gathering enough league points to finish in the top 30 of the leaderboard and you will be awarded a seat in the Big Final on January 8 at 1800 GMT (1100 PDT).
