Twitch Rivals Diablo 2 Resurrected Speedrun schedule 

Twitch Rivals Diablo 2 Resurrected speedrun will be a 1-day event, scheduled to be held on 27th September.

The speedrun is set to start at 1 pm PT / 4 pm ET / 10 pm CET, and it will last for approximately two and a half hours.

Diablo 2 Resurrected Speedrun rules and format

The event will see 24 players divided into 8 teams of 3 competing for a 2 hour, 30-minute race, and the team that completes the most of the game will be the winning one!

Those are the basic rules, and here are the more detailed ones:

• 8 teams of 3 competitors each
  • Each team is 1 Diablo 2 Speedrunner and 2 creators
  • Each teammate must play a different class
  • Speedrunners may NOT play Sorceress class
• Teams progress as far as possible in 2:30, with each Act and Quest completed adding to their score
  • Bonus objectives will give incentives for teams to go off the main path or to split up
    • Bonus objectives from an Act must be completed before the team finishes said Act or they will not score points - no "going back" to previous Acts or difficulties to complete quests, though farming items are allowed
• Lobby remakes are allowed
• Teams are allowed to split up between lobbies - however, see scoring as all players on a team must complete a quest to score it
