EPTanyway I don't want to argue more about this, but yes it's obvious only money events (especially limited invites) should count for anything as players just screw around in the others and lose on purpose.

Thats whats up~ | ||

This would not only settle a couple of the complaints but, it should also produce some competitive games. Players that have yet to "prove" themselves will be able to and then whoever wins will have a chance in the HDH Invitational. If they suck they shouldn't win the prize anyways, but if they own it up they at least get to shut everybody who doubted them in this thread. Hope all goes well. Always great to see new tournaments pop up. | ||

btw idra, your all kill against team aus in the finals of smuft's invite, was copied the next day by nkdcoke of team quebec, who performed the same all kill against the same players. Although they probably where not trying obviously. I'm not saying you arent a top player, but there are a lot of players up there with you with much less recognition. You shouldn't BM them saying "you have to prove yourself in an invite only tournament like I did, that you wheren't invited to" note: I have no interest of being invited, I'm pretty bad at SC2 and only have 20-ish games post wipe, 250 pre wipe (1800 plat), I'm not a member of root gaming or team quebec etc. I was just responding to Idra's attitude to other top NA players such as drewbie who honestly have as much claim to being a top player as Idra. also "random team leagues", look at SC in korea, the biggest event is the pro league. | ||

The time some of these guys spent whining could have been better spent practicing so they could be invited next time. Lookin' forward to watching this and other SC2 tourneys. Thanks to the sponsors, casters, and players for making this possible! | ||

Many people don't understand that there are limited slots and we do our best to accommodate everyone. We expect the negativity to die down once the 16 players have been solidified.  | ||

Plus you didn't take any of my suggestion for the name of the invitational We've looked into the opportunity just to make sure what our options were for TLI's and they are not allowed to play tournaments due to Blizzard rules. Not that I think if they were allowed they should be invited though. | ||

They are not allowed to play but are they allowed to commentate and give us their opinion on the tournament or the game? Ex. A specific strat they never saw before? Players using units a way they never thought of? Any possible balances they need to fix etc? | ||
