wow did not expect that, nice
|
This is dope! All about it
|
Very interesting. Love Civ games, but never actually watched any competitive or high skill games of any Civilization games.
|
Into the competitive world? Come on 
|
so then Civ 6 has stable multiplayer and games that take less than 6 hours?
cause Civ 5 was competitive, but definitely wasn't an esport, it also needed a "pro mod" (NQ) to be balanced.

interesting to say the least!

I had no idea Civ even had a competitive side. Best of luck to MrGameTheory in the Liquid family.

jaw drops
I didn't know this was a thing. :O
|
woah i had no idea this was like a thing.
|
What are the game settings that are used in competitive games? Are these as long as high level chess games? Round based strategy can take a while...
Are there even big tournaments or leagues for CIV?
|
Didn't expect this at all! Didn't know Civ was still a thing, so this is great to see 
|
As exciting as this is, I wish I knew more about it. I don't know much about the scene, err I didn't even know there was a scene! Does anyone have any literature about the history of competitive Civ?
I haven't looked at the Civ VI thread, but I hope we can have 50 pages of debate on whether removing tile stacking was a good or bad idea like how we debate MBS in other parts of TL.
|
An FFA Esport? Fuck yeah!
|
We'll have to see how this develops. Not too sure I'm interested in a CIV eSports scene.

FFA and 3v3. Random civs or a draft for FFA, identical civs on each side for 3v3. Small maps, Pangaea only, if you don't have the next 6 hours free on your schedule you shouldn't play (for civ 5)
No tournaments for money as far as I'm aware, but maybe that's changing for Civ 6.
