'''Esports Arena Rewind LAN 2017''', commonly referred to as '''Rewind 2017''', was the first [[Esports Arena]] Team Fortress 2 tournament. It was a [[6v6]] LAN event, held at the Esports Arena in Santa Ana, California, United States from 21 January 2017 to 22 January 2017.<ref name="Esports Arena Rewind page">[http://esportsarena.com/events/2017/January/Rewind.html Esports Arena Rewind page]</ref> Rewind 2017 is extremely notable for being the first intercontinental LAN event outside of the [[Insomnia Gaming Festival]], and the first intercontinental LAN in North America. It was held very close to the median date between [[Insomnia58]] and the projected date for [[Insomnia61]], creating a bi-annual period for global 6v6 Team Fortress tournaments. Two non-North American teams attended the event, [[Se7en]] from Europe and [[Jasmine Tea]] from Australia.<ref name="TF2 Rewind LAN at Esports Arena - Jan 21-22">[http://www.teamfortress.tv/37099 TF2 Rewind LAN at Esports Arena - Jan 21-22]</ref>

'''Esports Arena Rewind 2017''', commonly refered to as '''Rewind LAN''', is the 1st Team Fortress 2 competition at an Esports Arena event and will be divided into 2 main divisions, Invite and Open. The LAN is hosted by [http://esportsarena.com/ Esports Arena] in Santa Ana, California from 21 January to 22 January 2017.<ref>[http://www.teamfortress.tv/37099/tf2-rewind-lan-at-esports-arena-jan-21-22/ TF2 Rewind LAN at Esports Arena - Jan 21-22]</ref>
  
Rewind 2017 was split into two divisions, Invite and [[Esports_Arena_Rewind_2017/Open|Open]]. The format for the Invite division consisted of a six team round robin group stage proceeded by a double-elimination bracket. The prize pool was contributed to by the organisers [http://esportsarena.com/ Esports Arena], [https://marketplace.tf/ Marketplace.tf] and crowdfunding.<ref name="Esports Arena Rewind page">[http://esportsarena.com/events/2017/January/Rewind.html Esports Arena Rewind page]</ref><ref name="TF2 Rewind LAN at Esports Arena - Jan 21-22 (post #150)">[http://www.teamfortress.tv/37099?page=5#150 TF2 Rewind LAN at Esports Arena - Jan 21-22 (post #150)]</ref> Prominent community figures [[b4nny]] and [[samiface]] were heavily involved in the organisation of the event.
+
The first 2 Invite teams, [[froyotech]] and [[Meat Market]] (formerly [[Circa eSports]]) were announced by [[b4nny]] on 1 December 2016, with at least 4 other teams joining them in the coming weeks.<ref>[http://www.teamfortress.tv/post/678606/tf2-rewind-lan-at-esports-arena-jan-21-22/ b4nny's post about Froyotech and Circa eSports being invited to the Invite tournament]</ref>
  
Se7en, having won the latest intercontental event Insomnia58 (as [[Crowns eSports Club]]) were eliminated by [[froyotech]] following a five map Grand Final. Jasmine Tea finished fourth, unable to break the infamous "curse" of Australian teams finishing fourth at intercontenental events.

The original Invite prize pool provided by Esports Arena sits at $2000, but with sponsorship from Marketplace.TF,<ref>[http://www.teamfortress.tv/post/679449/tf2-rewind-lan-at-esports-arena-jan-21-22/ samiface's update for Rewind LAN by December 2016]</ref> now the prize pool for Invite is updated to $7000, with Esports Arena looking to raise the prize pool even higher through additional sponsors and crowd funding.<ref>[https://youstake.com/projects?PID=1826/ TF2 Rewind LAN Prize pool Fundraiser]</ref>
