Short History:
The Macro/Micro Tournament originated as an event consisting of players from the practice partner thread located on www.teamliquid.net. Every US player with a post that played SC2 at a platinum or lower level could enter. Our First two events were very impromptu; set up and run over the course of a single night. Both events though had a great show of support, attendance retention, and participation. You can find the brackets and results from our First two tournaments, here and here.
Due to these two successes and lots of support from participants for Future tournaments, I've decided to go the next step and make this an "official" as well as larger tournament rather than the "out-of-thin-air" 16 man 1v1 tournaments I have organized before.
The Tournament Name:
The name “Macro/Micro Tournament” was used as the event title in consideration of learning these basic principles of the Game, while also giving a feel of what it is like to play under pressure in a tournament setting. Which overall, is what the practice thread and the event(s) were/are all about.
