I like TaKeTV, but the only really lame thing is their biased invites and almost no chance, due to only 1 qualifier, that other players beside those beloved ones can enter the tournament. That should change!

So instead of inviting the players they like, they should invite the players you like?

Why would you come to that conclusion? There is nothing in the post that says anything like that, is there?

Why do you invite more than 80% of the players ? The qualifiers could be interesting too.


Because in the current state Zerg and Terran are superior to Protoss. We wanted to make sure we also do have Protoss players in the tournament and I believe invites bring a bit of balance between races / nationality and you can choose interesting people.

It could be a bit more but I believe its not bad this way e ither

In this case an invitation-system is very useful, also with HSC where you want to have players who are comfortable with casting and such, but TakeTV has always been very invite-focused and biased in my opinion.

Here I see no problem with it though - there are no WCS points on the line, it's a beta tournament to showcase the new game and Foreigners may very well put more effort into that than the Koreans anyways. I also like the Bundesliga-format, old memories of EPS came up in me after reading that. ^_^

Always nice to see loTV tournaments to test the game but i'll probably not watch it because of this :
17 invites, 3 qualifiers

Are you inviting 17 toss then, and let the best zerg beat each other in the qualifier?

Screened so it can be properly decontexualized and used against you later

Yeah, inviting the weak race makes perfect sense here. Even if most of the Protoss will actually lose in the first round. OH I have just found NarutO's secret plan

I know that in terms of organization, invitations are more easy to manage. But i think they're a lot of ways to involve the community to pick even just ten players. And if you're afraid of the current race imbalance, well, one qualifer/poll/KoH per race can be a solution.
I dont mind when it's HSC because pple come to your place but here it's a online tournament.

That league will be a great start of competitive LotV. I like that they invite all races, no one wants to see another ZvZ tournament

This is great.

Now there is no good players playing or even trying to understand LotV. The $$$ incentive is good to fix this.
