IMO random should not be allowed, it does give an advantage (if even a slight one). Would hate to see some of the better players lose out to gumbys who used some cheesy bullshit (Yes i know cheese can happen in normal games but atleast you can plan for the the bullshit knowing which race your up against). There are also some maps which give greater advantages to the player going random than others ..

Most of all, I want to see some good games played and not allowing random is a good move to make that happen.


Seriously? It's not like random is a hack or something. Race picking I can maybe agree with, but not allowing random is dumb.

As long as you indicated you're playing random in the sign-ups, I don't see the problem. If you don't feel as confident playing against a random player becuase you can't follow your robotic early game builds, it isn't your opponent's problem.

When did everyone go so lame?

Random is really just no fun to play against in most cases and if the person who plays random just wants to play any race then why not just pick one or roll a dice or something man.

Lost Temple isn't a hack, it's part of the game but I bet everyone would complain if that were the map for these tourneys. It alters the game too much and is not really in the spirit of the competitiveness or fun of it.

Theres a reason why u cant random in pro scene, coz it gives an unfair advantage in terms of early build order, scouting and overall game plan. You cant prepare a good build or anything for a map and matchup.

The main reason for going random is usually because some1 doesn't like playing a particular matchup. Thats just gay, man up and play it

Actually it's allowed, it's just that no one randoms because it's too hard to master nine matchups yet alone three.

I recall seeing a rule about having to specify your race before the games, surely there'd be more cases of one-off randoms if it was allowed?

players are such giant sissy wimps these days. "boo-hoo i cant cope with not doing exactly the same opening i always do in a specific matchup against someone who plays 3 times more matchups than i do".

whatever happened to the good old days where random players were celebrated as more rugged and virile than the average gamer?

Maybe because most random players nowadays are people perceived as cheesers on iccup, which most are. I don't know.

Like I said it's just not fun to play against random when you lose because of them being random, so it can be like cheese.

No random lets everyone know their match up before hand and can practice for it. Random just makes things lame and for some people who are against it, its unfair and more importantly unfun not knowing the race you are against until you scout them a few minutes in

Answer me this - why do players choose random? I can only think of reasons where it gives you an advantage.

I'm not really sure how del not allowing people to play random is lame in this tournment.. What's lame is people bitching they can't pick random most likely because they do not want to play someone straight up in a normal match. If you need to be able to go random to win games you are the one that is lame buddy.

As I said earlier, personally I would rather see some good games played where it is on an even playing field and that's more likely to happen when random is not allowed!

random is allowed in progames as gtr says and part of the whole point of playing it is because it does give you an early game advantage and force your opponent into more conservative builds. I appreciate that most players these are mindless robots who one or two builds, but like I said, random is a legit race in itself and should be allowed. It shouldn't even warrant debate. Where Eri when we need him?

Let's continue the discussion on teamaus.org so it gets more traffic cos as it is we're making too many pages in this and cluttering it up.
