Assuming I can make enough time to head down to this, anyone have any advice as to whether it'd be worth me entering? I'd hate to spend the money just to find out that I'd just receive a sound beating and not gain much, and am wondering if simply spectating would be best. Thanks its def worth the money man, go to have fun. unlike most tournaments, because its a swiss style you get to play at minimum 4 best of 3's. vs players of all skills. theres people of all skill levels :-) and prizes for players who are below masters and diamond | ||

What better way to improve your gameplay by asking questions and watching better players play live is eye opening. (not as much in SC2 as in BW imo) Also Rag you can drive up with me If your down you know how I do!! Screw the money part come hang out. | ||

You'll get to meet some pros and have a good time. | ||

In all seriousness, attend the events, meet some people, have a good time and don't look back. | ||

Personally i prefer the swiss system, games get easier for people who suck ;p The bigger the tournament gets the more rounds you require to get an accurate top X (6,8,16). Groups cause far less confusion overall (I don't have to constantly explain the format, despite linking information about the format that anyone can easily read). I can add in more matches per person because I can keep groups moving faster than swiss and get everyone involved more games to play. | ||

Naturally give em some gas money to make up for it :-) | ||
