I know there are a lot of religious folks who find themselves uncomfortable with same-sex match-ups, especially as a tournament final, but if there was ever a good PvP series to watch, this would be it!  Fold (As JungEunji) has been a fan-favorite to win since day 1, and has definitely lived up to the expectations so far, especially with a convincing 3-1 win over drshrinker, who was previously undefeated in the league. Not only did Fold stop drshrinker's mad science from destroying all of BroodWar, but he did it after drshrinker got to B- on the ladder, and he made it look almost easy. Breach, Hungary's all-race player, stands in Fold's way to gold, but has not had quite such a difficult run as Fold, and has dropped at least one game in every series. Don't get me wrong though - Breach's play has been very strong and has been able to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.

As a rule of thumb, be respectful, be courteous, and be nice. It's okay to have emotions and it's okay to get angry, especially when you fail at something you wanted to win, but don't take it out on the people in the tournament. Try not to stress out over little things, and stay focused on having fun and improving.
5. When you have lost your game, say "gg" and gtfo
6. If your dog starts talking to you and saying how you should quit drugs, you should quit drugs.
7. All matches that are unplayable due to lag will be decided at the tournament staff's discretion.

11. Any third-party programs that alter gameplay in any manner are strictly prohibited with the exception of iCCup Launcher. Hacking is prohibited and will result in a ban from ALL future tournaments.
12. All complaints in-channel must come with a screen capture with the /time command. Failure to do so could potentially result in your complaint being denied, although certain exceptions may be made if there is an individual exhibiting a repeated antagonist behavior.
13. The rules can change at any time, for any reason, sometimes randomly, and for no apparent reason, because there is no justice in this world.
14. If it is discovered that you are above the maximum points for qualification in this tournament, you will be disqualified.
15. Your match requires more cowbell.
16. You may not play your matches using your toes unless you are missing both arms.
17. Spoiling your games could cause you to be penalized.
18. I'm just glad FroZen wasn't here to see this.

I would like to say a very special thanks to a few people who made this possible. First, thank you to everyone who played in the tournament and continues to play StarCraft. Sponsors and fans don't make the community work, you do! Thanks to everyone who tuned in to watch the tour, and please do tune in to watch the final, it's going to be great! It makes me happy that you enjoy this event so much, because I couldn't ask for anything more! Thank you to He Who Shall Not Be Named, and Sluggaslamoo for creating a cool prize pool.
Special thanks to Pucca for his commitment (He spent his own money to make a layout for the tour!) to StarCraft: BroodWar and seeing this whole thing through. Thanks to L_Master and BMW as well. Please enjoy the finals, everyone!

Why, yes -

1. Chain Reaction - drshrinker wins
2. Fighting Spirit - drshrinker wins
3. Sniper Ridge - drshrinker forfeits (youRun wins by technicality, there was a disconnect and both players agreed to this)
4. Jade - youRun wins
5. Ground Zero - youRun forfeits (another dropped game and both players agreed)

Congrats to Breach on winning YSL season 1! (yes there will be more than 1)
I wanna thank everyone that worked on this league. Slugger[wok] for sponsoring it, Pucca and BMW for casting, and ninazerg for organizing the better part of it. Without any of you it wouldn't have been possible. I also wanna thank the mystery liquipedia editors including gecko and mewka and others that helped update the page even tho they werent asked to.
Thanks to the players as well. Im glad we had no walkovers or forfeits in the whole tour. Hope you enjoyed it!
We're gonna end up casting the 3rd/4th place match on Friday. Pucca didnt have time the other day with the late cast and also there was another issue but we'll have it cast for completeness sake.

big love for everyone who cheered for me! And big thanks who practiced PvP with me! (aka. Purple my bro)
|
this was a nice and fun tournament 
hope for more in the future !

Reinstalling boot loader sooo much fun

well I am for sure waiting. hope you'll start soon
GL
|
Well I might have found a way to fix crossing my fingers
|
I think you should reschedule that to tomorrow, same hour
|
I even made a post about how breach would win 99.9% chance. Big surprise right? Oh wait nevermind I can just see the future right? Yeah, that's it... it has nothing to do with breach being above C+ skill level
|
I posted how he was above C+, Offered multiple pieces of evidence, common sense usage AND predicted he would win if he played.
I've did 100% everything I could possible do to show I am right. So, if people still can't admit that, then congrats you win.
|
Lastly, it's not my tournament so I don't care who you let play as it's none of my business. What is my business is when you call me wrong and question my judgement. Then despite all the evidence, still say that I am wrong. That's stupid and I no choice but to address that.
