===MSNC: A Midsummer Night's Cup===
 +
A Midsummer Night's Cup are a series of single-night [[6v6]] competitions that were run twice a summer from 2017 through to 2019. From 2020 however, MSNC have been run at irregular intervals with the recent addition of a MSNC [[Highlander]] league. Teams are split into three divisions - either Premier, Intermediate and Open or Divisions 1 through 3. The focus for these cups is to provide ozfortress players with a more casual laid-back experience in between seasons. Hence, many MSNC tournaments have seen looser team compositions and more extensive offclassing than the ozfortress seasonal league.

The ozfortress league was the longest running competition in Australia/New Zealand. The ozfortress league was a ladder competition, open to teams of all skill levels. Match scheduling was determined by a team's win/loss streak, which provided them with the opportunity to face opponents at other skill levels, or opponents they would otherwise never meet in regular scrimmage. This league was seen as a proving ground for new maps designed for the competitive community, and was paired with a less restrictive weapon banlist. OZFL was largely regarded as a pathway into ozfortress' previous premier competition, the ozfortress winter league (OWL) series.
