The Cup of Harmony is a tournament for roleplaying nations, which failed to qualify for the World Cup. The term Cup of Harmony was invented by Warnocks Wizards, who hosted this tournament parallel to WCIX. However this was not the first installment of a tournament for non-qualifiers (sometimes called: 'Losers Cup'); parallel to WCVIII, the Frosty Invitational Tournament was hosted since a high number of roleplayers failed to qualify. Despite other names for succeeding tournaments, the name Cup of Harmony became used by the sporting community.

The Cup of Harmony is an official event of the World Cup committee. Its results affect the KPB-ranks of the participants and are an additional incentive to roleplay during the World Cup.

Among notable incidents in Cup of Harmony history is the famous "voodoo dice" incident in Cup of Harmony V, during which several of the results were decidedly fishy. Particularly Melmond's 7-0 win over Praying2God caused some eyebrows to rise around the sporting world, as the Melmondians had a less than glorious football history before the tournament - however, matters were resolved, and "voodoo dice" became a way of explaining results that did not exactly fit the norm (see also Margaret)

It looked briefly as if this tradition would cease. With the seventeenth World Cup seeing most of the former organisers qualifying (only The Belmore Family of former, still active hosts were knocked out), little interest was shown in hosting the tournament, and the outlook for this once-great tournament became rather bleak. However, Sarzonia eventually stepped up to host the ninth Cup of Harmony. Real life prevented him from hosting the tournament, so The Lowland Clans and Rejistania acted as stand-in.

In CoH12, Kylaai became only the second team to win the Cup of Harmony twice, Cockbill Street having been the first team to manage such a feat of sporting prowess. In the feats of futility, Legalese is the only nation to have ever been the the CoH final more than once without winning it, flopping in the finals of CoH X and CoH XI . They also are the first side to reach consecutive CoH finals, with Hockey Canada matching that feat in CoH XV and XVI. Melmond became the first team to appear in three Cup of Harmony finals, appearing in CoH V, IIX and XIII .
