Oh well. Best of luck with future tournaments. I'll be sure to keep my eye open for any tweaks that work out favorably for my crew and we'll definitely try to attend what we can. =) Alberta esports fighting~

You couldn't be more wrong on this. Sounds like people that were there had a great time, hope more people show up next time after some adjustments are made  Haha JC if ladder ranking meant anything in tournaments i wouldnt have my 5 first place in edmonton and calgary not to mention the time i went to vancouver beat drewbie in group stages then lost to optik zeroes epik cheese. Yeah and drewbie won the whole thing. not to toot my own horn cause heck i got hurt pretty bad this tournament, serovati and sunshine are bosses I don't think the top 8 is even as good as it could have been if more people from Calgary showed up. Noctis is a damn strong Protoss, JasonX's macro far surpasses anybody I've played in Edmonton or Calgary, Mkengyn's name speaks for itself, let alone the lesser known Calgary players that are as strong as the Edmonton top 8.
No offense man, you're a good guy and a good Terran for the Edmonton scene, but you're not in the same league as Wannabe, Warden, KawaiiRice and Stalife. Me and Sunshine aren't Saikou and FireZerg, Ander and Andro aren't Optikzero and Ranged.
Vancouver is top 2 as far as gaming cities, competing with the Toronto area. Edmonton and Calgary have some good players, but nobody really stands out as a "great player" other than maybe Mkengyn.

Also to the guy saying that double elim only adds an extra round, that is not true. You'll find yourself wasting time waiting for people to fall into the lower bracket, causing delay everywhere. A 64-man double elim. bracket will not finish in a day. You wanna do this? If you guys can front some cash I will match it. Dime, Mkengyn, Noctis, SaroVati, JasonX vs. Warden, Wannabe, Saikou, Stalife, Ranged? It would be pretty close.

Well, to be fair, KawaiiRice, RaNgeD and Sterling drove from Seattle so they shouldn't count haha
I'm willing to organize things on this side, sometime early next year if you guys want to do this, make it epic ^^.

Can we keep it strictly Alberta/BC players? Do it GSTL style and maybe get some other provinces/locations involved later in the year

HYPE!!! BC will take this
|
I'd argue that Vancouver surpasses Toronto as well. Our player pool extends to Royalflush and vilechance as well, both of which have beaten the likes of MKP, Hongun, kiwi as well as other really strong players. I hope we can get this tournament going soon ^^. An event like this would definitely give a huge boost the Canadian Starcraft scene.

Funny, I've beaten both Ranged and Optikzero multiple times on ladder, usually for 10-12 points I believe there are a couple vids on youtube of it too.... beaten stalife in tournies, Warden I have only played twice so I can't comment, and never heard of Saikou or Wannabe :O Tbh though BC seems like they could front quite a line up :O I'd be down to play lol

prodiG and whoever else that wants to discuss the BC vs Alberta showmatch series, add me on skype at mkchoi0801, I've already started talking to gofarman

Drewbie is BC as well no? .. anyone mentioned in this thread is fairly respectable. Did royalflush get alot better in the last 2 months? I had no idea ranged was a BC resident either.... maybe im thinking of another player. Anyways, it would be an exciting series, i dont think a 4on4 quite does justice to the depth either area can offer though.
We tried this edmonton vs calgary a while back when sinatra and I were still active, and we never had any interest from the southern part of our lovely province, it would be nice to see them get a little bit of passion for a vs BC match though.

If you read a little bit above, I said that KawaiiRice, RaNgeD and Sterling were from Seattle ^^ They just drove up for our last LAN. RoyalFlush is now a top 50 GM, you can interpret that either way i guess haha. I'd still like this to be a 11v11 proleague format, that would be fucking dope. Drewbie is also from BC as well, but I think he lives elsewhere now I think....? Not too sure.
|
Ranged Sterling and KR are from Seattle. I think the confusion came from the fact that they came up for our last tournament.
|
Ya sorry i didnt see that part, I knew the rest were american but wasnt sure on Ranged and didnt see his name in that list. Thought i did alot better than i do vs royalflush i guess.. sc2gears set me straight only 5-5 vs him tt. Top 50 gm is, whatever i guess? Takes a large time commitment in ladder to keep your MMR high, as well as alot of time to commit to playing games to stay in it and to fight inflation. Im not here to contemplate the ladder though. Is stalife still active like he was before? firezerg as well, all i remember about him is briefly seeing him at the canada cup and having him get mad and storm out when he lost. Id put neans in the top 11 in bc if he wasnt inactive as well.
