Sounds great! Makes the ladder more important
|
I dont understand the format :/ perhaps include a graphical illustration for idiots like me?
|
This is awesome, played matches on SB ladder yesterday and noticed changes in metagame, improvements in client, website ladder tracking, etc. so many great developments. Husky is also promoting SB now so I am sure the player base is rising, great stuff.
|
We're currently running through some bugs but will have everything squared away and adjusted by Tuesday for signups.
Get ready for a action based season of Starbow!
|
This is great, just if possible find a sponsor to award 50$ to winner of each of these preFinal tournaments. Everyone tries harder even if it is just for a bit of of cash and you might get a more known player to participate.
|
That's kinda awesome, also mad props to Rifkin !

I thought blizzard expressly prohibits any other ladders besides their own.

Since they made Arcade free and Starbow is considered a "mod" they can't do anything with it. Technically the Eros Client is a stand-a-lone "statistics" tracker that just happens to add/subtract values so in theory they can't touch that.

signed up, this should be fun
|
I guess I'm unsure on if there will be a tournament for each server ladder or if it will combine players from both regions
|
do you need to contact admins for them to link your binarybeast to your starbow name? Or how do they know who to accept ;p
|
Just to clarify:
You can sign up all the way until Friday, but you need to have more than 3k points now (or a couple of hours ago).

Its a combined tournament of the servers.

Hopefully some players like Beastyqt that kind of stopped playing SB after Invitational also apply for this
