Hosted by Age of Queens, the Queens’ Charity Clash continues with its second round of Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition events: a 3v3 Deathmatch showmatch and a 2v2 showmatch featuring women from the Age II community. Read more about the month-long Women’s History Month fundraising event here: Announcing the Queens’ Charity Clash. Throughout the month women will be representing two charities: Girls Who Code and the Games and Online Harassment Hotline. All donations to Age of Queens during March will go toward these two charities.
Players will represent one of these charities and compete to score points in a variety of showmatch settings throughout the month. Throughout the events, donations will be collected into one giant fund. At the end, funds will be split between the two charities based on the outcome of the match. For example, if those playing for Girls Who Code win 60% of the games, then Girls Who Code will get 60% of all the donations collected.
March 19th, 14 GMT: 3v3 Deathmatch Showmatch
The second showmatch will consist of five games played in a fast-paced 3v3 Deathmatch setting! Teams will have a mix of experienced and newer Deathmatch players. Civilizations will be chosen from 3 tiers, without repeat. Players will be playing all 5 games with hidden civilizations on the following maps:
- Runestones
- Ghost Lake
- Lombardia
- Gold Rush
- Golden Swamp
For each win the teams earn, one point will be added to their dedicated charity’s tally. At the end of the month and the Queens’ Charity Clash, the total funds raised will be split among the two charities based on the final point score.
