Maybe the pro could just pick anyone from the channel to play against, similarly to the old TL Attacks. That is such a fun and different format. Not a great idea when money is on the line and viewers want to see high level competition. What you're suggesting would have to be a different event. | ||

Yeah, that is probably true. Maybe the money should just be something nominal, like 10 EUR so that it would not be worth it to sacrifice the "fun" over the money. Even so, it actually might be that the pros would be too good anyway so that the games against just some random guys would be kind of silly if no handicaps were introduced (again, similarly to TL Attack). But at this point of SC2 I don't actually think that it's so figured out that a pro couldn't have at least a decently entertaining game against a diamond player, for example (when not playing absolute 100% of course). But it's very difficult to say. Overall, I guess my point is that it would be very interesting to see pros play against "us", the average OK players, rather than against other pros which is what they do in every other tournament anyway. | ||

I forget where Naniwa used it, but it was against a pretty good Zerg player on Metropolis and he just hit with Immortal-Chargelot-Archon and made it look unbelievably easy. It might have been against DIMAGA at Dreamhack? I'm not sure. Actually i should defend but little too late spines and infestor miscontrol made me lose, also vs this push you need to shoot infested terrans but Bling tricked me with colossus so i used fungals ^^ | ||
