Really hope this will cause a slight decrease in barcode players on the ladder.

On the ESL website I'm wondering when an admin will accept us to the tournament so we can in fact see that we have been confirmed as a signup?

The StarCraft2 account linked to my esl account doesn't have 200 wins on it(my tournament bnet account), but I do have a separate account i ladder on that has well over 200 wins. How should I go about signing up for the ladder wildcard? As of now I just signed up with it on the account that doesn't have the 200 wins because it was already linked o_0

You will need to submit a game account change either now and play on that ohter game account throughout all the different qualifiers, Or you can wait until a day or so before the Wildcard qualifier and submit the game account change then.

Alright, i'll wait until the day before because i'd prefer to play on my sWs account rather than play them with my smurf's name. Just hoping I dont get rejected from the "please wait to be added" thingy

Even if you do, you can re-sign up with the corrected gamea account so its not a problem.

Player with higher seed chooses the role of either Player A or Player B.
Player A gets first veto pick in ABAB format.
Player B gets first map pick in map selection process in ABC format
Each player is allowed two vetoes total. After vetoes are completed 3 maps should be remaining in the map pool. Map order will be picked before the match begins.

This system is gonna let players completely avoid playing two maps per matchup. You should really be assigning maps every round.
