Are you an old school player? Have you been lurking for years out of a love for the game? Do you miss seeing epic matches played on old maps? Or, are you a new player who never got to experience many games played on the maps of yesteryear? If any of these questions applies, the Nostalgia tournament is just what you've been waiting for!
Thanks to the generosity and mind of an anonymous donor, I am proud to announce the Nostalgia Tournament - bringing together some of today's top players, from the new school to the old to fight for a $1,500 prize pool on old school maps.

I was wondering about that because I tried with the love of the game and it didn't work.

Strange that anonymosu donors are donating to prize pools of SC tourneys randomly lol o_o

"Or, are you a new player who never got to experience many games played on the maps of yeseryear?"
Should that not be yesteryear?

So much money on the line, I wonder who has all this money to fuel foreign sc tournaments
Also, I think leaving a few spots for random "casual" players with some laddering/whatever has a great atmosphere to it, makes the event feel more of a community event. (Highlander did that, iirc?)
Anyway, I'm looking forward to the games.

Awesome tournament, Xeris! I love to see Old School maps being played once again. Who are these anonymous donors that keep giving us good tournaments?
On another note, the link for Nostalgia does not work.

Thx so much to the donor whoever it is! I think it's a really good concept.
