this seems fun. Some of the idea's behind the starbow mod are pretty good but overall it kind of lacks some things imo. It's a merge between sc2 and bw in a way that makes it worse than either on it's own imo. Some stuff is really good like replacing colossus with reaver and many more but some changes like using the building pace from bw more are just bad imo.
Overall the unit design is better than sc2 though making it quite interesting, if only it didn't try to change stuff like pathing and game pace so much..
|
Yes ... it is.... might take awhile....
Thanks x 1000 for the link, helps a ton!
EDIT: changed to "cast games", might not be able to cast all.
|
hope you gus get 16th player. will most likely watch the stream.
|
Come on people, don´t be shy! The tournament need atleast one more player :D
|
I'm just wondering... I live in the U.S. What is 30€ in $, and how would that work XD?
Prolly not an issue. Also, how would you feel about having other casters help out :D? I would love to bring in more youtube casters, even co-casters would be pretty nice too.
(Thinking of but not limited too:
BoisterousSC2
HuskyStarCraft
PsyStarCraft
Day9 (lol yeah right... keeping the hope alive.)
HDStarcraft
others I don't know/care to name.)
Just give em a pm, link to tournament page and main page, spread the word :D
|
We got our last player! We are good to go.
Now, chances are that not all show up, so whoever signs up first will be prioritized first if someone is absent. So feel free to sign up to dat tournament!
|
Brackets will be generated tomorrow around 3 pm CET.

Thanks for the vod, but I think for most of the people it would've been enough to share the link to the challonge site. ^^
Anyways, gl hf. <3
|
Danko has given away his spot so it will be given to xpiTzMark.
|

Okey, that's it for today, Great games today and thanks for all cooperation. Things went fairly smoothly.
The tournament concludes next Saturday at 6pm. Players must be in the chat channel (Starbow) no later than 5:50 pm. The first games of next saturday will be:
Xiphias Vs Chronopolis
Saftisch Vs PunchTheBag and
xpMagnam Vs HideRDK
Fell free to double check the brackets ( http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/User:Xiphias/Starbow_1#Playoffs ) for errors. I think I may have gotten some races wrong, especially since some of you were racepicking.
Good luck and have fun!
