About
The Prodigy Team Star League (PTSL) is aiming to fill the gap in the current StarCraft II© e-sports movement by introducing a premiere 2v2 tournament league. Initially started as an invitational tournament, the PTSL has since added an open bracket component in the second season and will continue to build on itself and evolve with the help of the StarCraft II© online community. As a tournament dreamt up by fans for fans, the PTSL is looking to change how 2v2 games are looked at by bringing casted high-level matches to the masses.

Tournament Breakdown:
$1200 Season 2 prize pool: $750 First Place, $300 Second Place, $150 Third Place
12 Pro 2v2 Teams comprised of some of the best professional StarCraft II© players

Should be awesome, really like the idea and the first season had some really great long games with some ridiculous max'd battles.

2v2 tournaments best!

nice to see u tried to fix the pretty weird mappool from ptsl1. tho the map Deconstructed is still a bit confusing with its 2 naturals for each player. and a lot of zergs are complaining about boneyard. well, i understand that u like to have ur "own" maps for this tournaments. but since the others are quite fine u should really reconsider these 2 imo. if u like big maps for this tourney how about tempest? didnt hear much rage about that one yet^^

anyway, hope to see a great tournament with lots of crazy games again

well, i have to correct myself.
the main problem on tempest is that on close spawn a terran can kill the opponents natural gas with his own 'defensive' stationed tanks. thats a bit unfair myb, but u could imply cross spawn, so this problem would be solved.
so all in all i think tempest cross spawn could be a way better alternative to boneyard. just a humble suggestion

peace

As a Zerg player, I HATE boneyard!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Would love to see tempest replace it, but wont cry TOO much either way ^_^

We tried to make it so it was most of the 2v2 ladder pool plus our two custom maps. Only the first map of each match will be fixed as we have changed it so the loser will pick the next map in the series.

Interesting to see Power choose random to fight the no race picking rule.

We've actually added a new rule for this season where if both teams agree then players can switch races for a game. It has to be brought up before each game.
