I signed up, will try to make it this time!

Lack of participants means we will have to move this to another TBA date. Looks like everyone really wants to keep their builds a secret for the upcoming qualifiers! Sorry for all the inconvenience.

It's kind of difficult to comprehend how there's a lack of participants for Olimoleagues. A free to enter weekly tournament that gives a good payout at best and a good bit of practice against high level players at worst.
It's actually kind of frustrating, knowing people complain about the lack of tournaments while ignoring opportunities like this.

Well its not been short of players up to this point, thing is that everyone in Korea is prepping for Starleague qualifiers and such right now, including our guys. It's going to be the toughest qualification in history now that Korea is oversaturated with great players, they need to commit all their time to it and not show builds during an online cup.

Yeah, I get why Axiom and Proleague participants are hesitant to show builds and such, makes total sense. But at the same time, there's a couple other regions that are free to participate as well.
Just seems strange that we have these North American teams that have tons of players, yet I'm seeing none of them compete in tournaments. Don't see the downside for all the NA pros and semi-pros, it's a free to enter online cup. Come win some money! Or, if you don't think you're good enough, come get some practice against people like Marineking! :D

I'm surprised as well. This is a fantastic opportunity to get better. This is literally a "what have you been doing wrong in the first 5-10 minutes that will get you killed against a good player, and that you need to fix asap so you practice the right things?"
I've only missed participating in each one because I keep failing to remember about it, I oversleep, or I'm busy due to exams haha.
And now my sleep schedule's not good, so I won't be able to make it T_T
Edit: Once again I thought I would sleep before the tournament started, but here I am awake 18 minutes after the tournament started before realizing it haha.

In those situations its like just for one month or whatever. Regardless it's great for the event.

I can't believe these casters don't know gumiho can multitask well. For the majority of his career, his multitasking was specifically what he was know for.
|
This is such a fun game. I love the early midgame air control dynamic of TvT.
|
That was a really cute TvT :D

Wow what a game from Gumiho, that was so sick
|
For a while I was like... wow SuperNova is going to win! But he completely forgot to upgrade his mech... 3-2 M&M pretty strong against mech apparently.
