TechDeft! We have an opening! It seems Mission and Karliath will be ineligible/unable to join, you and Rocko are next in line, if you'd like to take their spots. I sent PM's, and you both have 24hours to respond... Good luck! ~DI
PS-Karliath, I understand, and you'll be sorely missed, but thanks for doing this before we began. MissioN, it saddens me to "punish" you for ascension to plat, but hopefully you'll understand that you're beyond the skill level now of the competitors. It would be unfair to pit them against you, and your stellar performance in the Rising Cup#2 is further example of your prowess. I congratulate you on your ascension, and we're all jealous of you, but unfortunately I'll need to give your spot to someone else. Had you ascended in the middle of the season, things would be different, but since it hasn't started yet, technically, it would be negligent towards the other players to allow you to continue. Thanks for being honest, and we wish you all the best.

For the finals, I've tallied the results, with the aid of the poll on page 2 of this thread. At the moment, the counts, multiplied by 3 for 1st, 2 for 2nd, and 1 for 3rd, Metalopolis in the favorite, then Lost Temple, and the Blistering Sands. So, BS will be the map for 3v4, LT for 2vX, and Metal for 1vX.
Thanks for voting! ~DI
PS- Crossfire and Incineration Zone have been added to the map pool, and Week's 10 and 11 maps have been changed to these.

Got in :D. I'm gunna get to work on my bio in a few
|
I wish you all good luck in the league. I will be sure to check in to see how it is going for everyone. I wish I could say I could help cast the games or something but I have no clue how to do that, so I will just stick to being a fan of the RISING league. I expect you guys to follow me to platinum soon!

Couple of Questions: When is this starting If you promote to platinum you are auto-disqualified?
|
Should be a lot of fun, glad to be in the league. Two Zergs my first week, should be interesting. :D

It starts week after the patch, and after it begins, if you can't get disqualified unless you actually do something wrong.
|
|

I suggest getting a reliable caster as I cannot find any replays or casts for neither rising cup #1 nor rising cup #2 (Unless they were removed to prevent people from studyign their replays, which then I say Bravo.) I dont know how to cast but if hybrid and flow ever need another person to help them commentate i can help (just tell me how to set it up) Good luck to everyone

The vods for the first tournament are still at RQ.TV, while Ipp forgot to record vods for the second tournament.
There seem to be a lot of people who are interested in casting. I suggest we make a list of people who want to cast, and then we can divide up each week's replays between us. The person with the "best cast," considering the quality of the commentary, graphics, and camera movement, should cast the featured game or games each week. Or something along those lines.
Also, if some games are going to be casted, it will mean that all replays from every game must be publicly available for everyone. Otherwise, it would be unfair for players featured in casts.

If people want their games streamed, commentated upon and uploaded to youtube, PM me your match time and I will do my best to make it in time

Casting possibles so far:
