Nitro Live is a series of competitive Nitro UHC tournament events held on the Dogcraft Server. The first event, Saturday Nitro Live, was held in August 2019 and Nitro Live: Season 2 was held from November to December later the same year. In 2021, a third event, titled Nitro Live: Season 3 was held over about a week through the end of January and early February of that year.
The tournament was originally planned and organised by prominent Nitro UHC players nossi_ and 
William278, who was also a member of the Events Team. After five weeks, Gupta99999 was determined the winner after beating runner-up 
Xman404 in a final set. The second event was organised by William, Gupta and darparniox; the tournament was ultimately won by nossi. The third event, organised by 
OldManLP85 and 
RY44, featured a revised format and took place across one week. 
ThEquinox2, who came fifth in the original event won the third season, followed by William and 
xMakoto in second and third respectively.
Format
The tournaments were comprised of four stages; Qualifiers, Quarterfinals, Semifinals and Finals.
Qualifiers
In the qualifiers, players were split into groups based on their timezone. When registering, players could either choose to register on the 3rd or 10th of August 2019.
Across three games of Nitro UHC, players had to compete in their group to earn the most points in order to qualify for the Quarterfinals. One point was earned for killing a player before deathmatch, two points were awarded for coming in second place and three points were awarded for winning a game.
Quarterfinals
Players who qualified were divided into groups of three for the quarterfinals. The players had to compete in a game of Nitro UHC and the top two players from each game would advance to the Semifinals.
Semifinals
The remaining players were placed into a 1-on-1 game. The winner would advance to the finals, while the looser would be eliminated.
Finals
In the finals, all remaining players were forced to compete for points in three games of Nitro UHC, just like in the Quarterfinals. After the two games were up, the top two scorers were made to compete in a best-of-three championship set, where the winner of the set would be declared the world champion.
History
The idea of a Nitro UHC tournament was proposed several times by various players since the creation of the minigame on the server in late-2016. However, it was not realized until the 20th of July 2019, where prominent Nitro UHC players William278 and nossi_ discussed the formal possibility of hosting the tournament through the month of August, leading to the planning and development of the event.
The Nitro UHC matches were live streamed and commentated on to further draw excitement and a set of rules was put in place to ensure the games would be both exciting to watch and fair for the competitors. Various guests would join William278 to assist in refereeing and commentating, including participants whilst they were not playing. For Semifinals and Finals, ReNDoG took over streaming the event live to hundreds of viewers as the tournament came to a conclusion. A special video highlighting the best moments for the tournament and advertising the finals was also produced.
Following the success of the first tournament, the decision was made to made to made to made to hold a second season in winter that year, this time being planned by William and previous winner Gupta, with assistance from darparniox. Unlike the first season, not all of the second season's games were streamed, although ReNDoG still broadcast the finals. After several weeks, nossi_ prevailed as the winner.
A third tournament was announced and held in early 2021 and took place over a week, spanning from January 31st to February 5st of that year. The event, which was organised this time by events committee members RY44 and OldManLP85 had a few adjustments to the format from previous seasons. Notably, the qualifying heats and semifinals entirely used a point based system, with 5 points awarded for deathmatch kills, one point awarded for pre-deathmatch kills and points awarded to finishing positions in games (three points for first, two for second and one for third). Returning for Season 3 was the presence of fully live streamed games, with commentary and referee support from darparniox, 
TrainerMoon, 
Txp_ and 
dmgdog. At the end of the tournament, ThEquinox2, who came fifth in Saturday Nitro Live won the competition, beating out original organizer William and Makoto.
