"A multitude of rulers is not a good thing. Let there be one ruler, one king." - Homer
The dispute of which foreigner may sit on this throne will not go on for very much longer as Justin.tv proudly presents the King of the Hill 16 man Invitational tournament.
Random sorting will provide two divisions of 8 players, these players will compete in a 4 hour King of the Hill on Saturday, May 28th and Saturday, June 4th at 19CET. The final king, and player with the most wins from both brackets will advance to the semi-finals. The semi-finals will take place on June 4th at 23:30CET and will consist of a best of 3 single elimination style. The ultimate King will then be decided in an epic best of five series.

Message from the sponsor "Justin.tv has had the pleasure of being an integral part of the growth in Starcraft 2 broadcasting. When we were approached about sponsoring a Brood Wars tournament, it only made sense to jump in and support that as well. Although SC2 is here to stay, we hope fans of BW will tune in and enjoy this "retro" Starcraft event."

So you invite one ifu and one pain player as back-up players, and stack the line-ups with LRM) players. DragOn doesn't even use the clan tag, except for CL.

Yeah.. We actually invited people from all of the above except koreans because its a foreigner tournament. In fact we have 2 people from [pain] in there(check replacements). [KiDCaNaDa] declined originally then asked to be a backup but we already have enough backups and odds are they wont all play anyways, we invited at least 2 iFU... and one BSt... There were over 30 invitations, obviously not all accepted/replied on time.
Like of course it might look like we didn't invite a lot of people, but honestly, I think nb got the most invites if not tied with LRM, which I don't know how you can argue that since they are the two best foreign clans. Although, whoever accepted accepted, I mean my reaction if I didn't know who was invited would have been much different than yours, woulda been like RAMMS!?!? SZIKY!?!?

I'm curious why Alternative was swapped with Beltway from Group A to Group B but no other maps were changed O_o
Also, these rules make me sad:+ Show Spoiler +
8) There will be no BM whatsoever in the pregame lobby (1 warning per player)
9) There will be no chat in game and players are required to type out with a "gg" before leaving any game (1 warning per player)
I suppose since it's an official Justin.tv event though, we want to make a good impression

ups,iam the last player of the backup,maybe not place ;( ,Gl all players, i root for Ace
|
So few Terran players.

A lack of terrans, but oh well;d

Some sponsored tourney on ICCUP is always nice!
I really hope ICCUP will have more new people joining at this point.
1 terran total and 6 zergs in Group B... hope one of those ZvZ goes to Hive!
|
Wow, great news! Looking forward to it! Also, wow, Justin.tv to sponsor it? Cool! Although they really could have upped the amount of money they are putting in :p Anyway, aside from the lack of terrans, it looks awesome, thank you very much organizers and sponsors. I will also be glad to see a good mannered tourney  . GL HF everybody!

Alfio and michael for bracket A, oya and whistler for bracket B

Look for a Zerg player to win.

9) There will be no chat in game
I love this rule, definitely a great tournament! Great to see large companies still sponsoring Brood War tournaments!

This looks set to be a really interesting tourney; looking forward to it ^_^
And I'm sure the caster/s will be glad of the less-than-10-hour time-limit

OyA will not be able to make it for the second day of the competition, therefore he will be left as a substitute for group A. The player who is to replace OyA in group B will be announced as soon as we obtain confirmation.

Wow, so many Zerg players. It's cool to see Koll and Octzerg still playing BW though.

last game was beyond epic, congrats to Terror the only terran fighting in a sea of zergs and protoss
|
^ Ramms is now in the tour as well.
|
my god terror and baka played an amazing game
|
Can't wait to see Kolll vs Sneazel and Bakuryu vs TerrOR on the YouTube channel!
|
I can't wait for terror-bakuryu to be uploaded!
Great games everyone
|
Thread up to date, VODs will be uploaded to youtube ASAP.
|
everyone in group B will definitely get 3 chances each cuz zvz tends to finish rather quickly.
my prediction
Ramms (he will kill 8+)
Dragon (im assuming 5+ kills)
|
and GG bakuryu & terror, very nice
|
i bet FlaF most will have most kills (7++)
last king Ramms
|
Great fun last night. Thanks Sayle and everyone involved!

Hahaha, that last game was so awesome. :D

Ace/Whistler/FlaF and Ramms I think gonna make it, from what I know Ramm's has a solid TvZ and the previous 3 players I mentioned imo are the best zergs in the group, though whistler/flaf being team mates its sorta bias ^^

Super bias! So biased that we should just be fair and remove one from the group, no?

speaking of removing people from the group, unfortunately something came up and I cant play anymore on saturday, so some1 can replace me.

The last game was indeed amazing, thanks for showing how awesome bw truely is ( even when it's not played by korean progamers) . I really wish I had known the bw scene when it was as it prime, this game is truely amazing.
Anyway it has convinced me to stop watching sc2 and to watch bw instead ^^ .

lol Eywa, you don't get it. Me, Pat, and Shawn (ChOseN) started out KOTH in 2006 or 2007 and literally had them running 16 gosu's 10-16 hours a day for months straight at a time.
As for Pat, the system was planned meticulously in order to promote competition and fairness for the prizes.
Edit: Heads up, this event just got 10x more epic, iNferNaL's post count just went to 1337 in support of this event.

Thanks for this great event. Thanks to Sayle for his elite casting, thanks to Eywa for organizing, thanks to Justin.tv (I'll definetely disable my adblock for any BW-stream I watch) and thanks to the players for delivering high level and entertaining matches.
I didnt watch all of the games live. So I can enjoy the famous last match now and dont have to pay attention to my professor.
Can't wait for the 2nd group and the finals.
@Infernal: Go go. Play some BW. Because you can actually go "pro" in the BW-scene again.
|
[FR]DeWALT has replaced NrG.Dragon in Bracket B.
|
Haha 1337post Infernal.
I just finished watching the Finals, and man was it fucking Epic!
Anyone who hasn't seen it, its definitely incredible.
|
Make sure not to miss bracket B + Semies and Finals this Saturday. Although we have many Z in bracket B, you are guaranteed no ZvZ semies . But ZvZ can be quite tense as well. Anyhow, lots of excitement, don't miss it.

I am posting this on behalf of rD.Eywa- as he is a clan member of mine and a good friend. He has requested that I post this because he was unable to contact LRM)Game to do so tonight and wanted the lineups to be up before morning.

Wooaa, that's a lot of zerg. Hope Ramms gets out of this alive! And of course, gogo Ace, win this entire tournament!
|
changed opinion;)
FlaF will be king with most kills
last king will be Ace

Ah, pitty that Kashu and Ace are right next to eachother
Best of luck all, hoping for Kashu and Ace to make it!
And hoping for some epic games ofcourse.

Nice "logic" right there.
This whole thing is a giant mess anyway. Players who won their games didn't change positions with the players they beat, so they would play in the second run at the same position. That's how it worked in bracket A and it's just retarded. It makes like absolutely no sense. Anyway, the worst part is that it got changed in bracket B. Whistler won 6 games and was, after those rules, scheduled to play again but they just ignored it, going with the "change position" this time. But even then, it eventually reached the point where Whistler had to play again but, again, they ignored it because "he is qualified anyway".
About LRM)Bakuryu: He was the only player who had three attempts at racking up wins, thus it was relatively "unfair" but anyway, he lost the last game, so it didn't matter. But since Nb.TerrOR isn't able to play, it becomes an issue again. I mean, would you let the guy advance who had an advantage over all the other players and lost the game or would you let the guy advance who was the last king(FR.Bylat in this case)? Horrible decisions right there and it seems like they are favoring players which makes such a tournament a farce.
I mean, justin.tv is awesome for sponsoring such an event and the casting is superb, the players play nice games(they shouldn't have scheduled this many zergs though) but the admins really ruin it for me, leaving me with a bad taste in my mouth.

I don't like the Semi and Final format. It's a KING OF THE HILL TOURNAMENT.
Why not have the last 4 players play KOTH for 4 hours and whoever have the most kills and second kills become the first and second place?

Because it'd be repetitive, redundant, and eventually boring viewers to tears.
