if i was able to compete on the level of the people who would play, i would gladly pay 30

How do you think you'll get to that level? By staying at home until "you're ready"? Honestly if you care about being good you should take your beatings, thats how competitive gaming goes, you don't just enter a tourney and "get it" even the first place guy got his rapings at one point.

Haha I know, I played a toronto-area BW tournament back in the day, and beat people up until I got to lose to JF, despite only being D+. It's an unwise investment because I don't really play SC2 competitively .

why do so many NA tours have entry fee?
I dont get it, there must be other ways to finance such small tournaments

the tournament is running at 20$ dollars

This is really reminding me of how I started off playing poker with $20 buy ins. Starcraft + small buyin tournaments can really fuel esports.

try renting a place and providing a prize pool with no money no sponsership.

While no doubt difficult, I believe that's the point - you need to find some sort of sponsorship.

I'd love to attend this, but if the names you've mentioned show up, I'd literally be throwing money away, as someone else mentioned earlier in this thread.

If you have grandmaster quality players in a tournament, expecting a decent showing of master/below to come, play and pay is a bit much, IMHO.

can i just pay you at the door

exactly.

The idea of a local tournament is awesome, spending 30$ when people like ddoro/dde/lefnaij/antimage are in it is really just throwing the money to the wind. I love the idea of playing locally in a competitive/semi-competitive setting, but I can't afford 30$ to do it.

I know its DDE and whatnot but yeah... Advertising that you're willing to waive certain people's entrance fee and not anyone elses is kind of... yeah...

I'll call this one already!

Group 1 = col.antimage
Group 2 = sixjaxdde
Group 3 = soloturtule
Group 4 = slayersbaekho or hannamkung
Group 5= combatex
Group 6 = rootddoro
Group 7 = bigbirdy , willy, innate , cobra,
Group 8 = fnacticmsijf
Group 9 = sieg
Group 10 = tony , coachsauce , spasticated , tqsky

Group 7 & 8 stand no chance (its not like any of them will get past the second stage) I'm guessing Antimage will get walked through to the finals & face either DDE or JF.



Yeah! Real legit. It would be nice if you posted the full brackets so the tourney can't be rigged... Please post the full brackets to be fair to the other players who paid a lot to play. Shadyprobe is not impressed.

I have a couple questions that many people share:

Will there be seating to watch the live commentary?

What is the layout, (loser/winner bracket, BO1 BO1 BO1 BO3 BO5 BO7)

How many people are expected to show up?

Is there any minimal level of play required to enter into the tourny?

How many pros are expected, but most importantly, the seating for observers.

Is there a different price for observers and a different price for players?


PLEASE ANSWER THESE BECAUSE ME AND FRIENDS REALLY WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF WE SHOULD COME.
