elevengaming vs. The World

A showmatch series


Overview

North American eSports organization elevengaming, in partnership with Bigfoot Networks, are happy to announce a new showmatch series. With showmatches getting more and more popular within the community, we're excited to bring a new, fresh perspective to showcase top north american Starcraft II talent. Over the next ten to fourteen weeks, elevengaming will take on challengers from across the continent, with one of the largest cash and product prize pools available for a showmatch series in North America.

Format

Each week, a member of elevengaming's Starcraft II team (henceforth referred to as "the player") will begin a series of BO5 matches against various applied and invited "challengers" from current and former top 200 (Grandmaster) players. If a challenger beats the "player," the challenger will immediately take the prize pool - a minimum of $100 in prizes and cash. If the "player" wins the BO5 match, a few things will happen: First, the prize pool will raise an additional $20 in cash for each series won. The same player will also continue onto another BO5 match during the next scheduled cast. This cycle will continue until the player is either defeated, OR wins four BO5 series without losing. If the player is able to win four matches without a loss, they will be crowned winner, and take the prize pool they have built throughout the week. Whether the player manages to win four sets, or loses the first one, the following week, a new "player" from elevengaming will step up and start the process over. We will continue this showmatch series until all members of the team have been defeated, or been crowned winner.

Prize Pool

-9x Bigfoot Networks Killer2100 Gaming Network Cards
-Up to $1000 in Cash

Every new player will start with a winnable prize pool of one "Killer2100" BigFootNetworks Gaming Network Card ($80 value), and $20 in cash. With each BO5 match won by the player, $20 cash will be added to the prize pool. If any challenger wins a BO5 series, they will take the accrued prize pool immediately, with a new player beginning the following week. The prize pool for these showmatches can range from the starting gaming card+$20 to a fourth week player finale of the Killer2100 card+$80!

The Challengers

It's an open challenge
! Parties interested in participating can apply to be a challenger for this event by filling out the form (link below). Please note that we are only looking for very high masters/grandmaster level players who are currently, or have in the recent past, been in the top 200. If you are not grandmaster level, but feel that you would be an exceptional choice, you may apply and state your case. You must also play primarily on the NA server, and be available to play evenings on eastern standard time. Challengers will be eligible to play in this series one time, regardless of whether they win or lose, and are not able to choose which player they face. Please only apply once, we will not lose your application. If you fill out the form completely, meet the qualifications listed above, and we feel that you would be a good addition to the showmatch, we will get in touch with you.

The Players

elevengaming's entire Starcraft II roster will be participating in this event. We are:

xiDomino
xiNizzy
xiLost
xiExO
xiGerbil
xiBinski
xiSlurgi
xiLith
xiWarden

Each player will play until they are eliminated or have won four matches in a row. The list above is not neccesarily the order in which we will be playing.

Casting

CatsPajamas will be casting these events live twice a week! You can tune in at the scheduled times by going to CatsPajamas' stream channel. (Link below)

The Sponsors

elevengaming will be hosting this event, as well as providing the cash part of the prize pool. Our sponsor, Bigfoot Networks, continues to support the Starcraft eSports community with a prize pool that includes their line of Killer2100 Gaming Cards.

Thank you for all the applications already guys! We've had almost two dozen so far, and some big, big names on the NA scene interested. Don't be intimidated to submit your application, though, if you are a lesser-known name. We're shooting to have almost everyone playing as a top 200 player, but are definitely looking to showcase at least a few players that are very good, but may not be as well known already. Most of us can certainly relate =)

Everyone please remember that it could be this week or nine weeks from now before we contact you about this showmatch. We're really glad the early interest is this great, and look forward to putting on a good show.

Very Excited to finally see this posted! My players are informed and should be applying tomorrow when they get the email.

Wondering if it might be helpful to include an expected start time and application deadline in the OP?
