Wow, I knew a season 2 was coming but I didn't know it would be that early, really good surprise !

Will Axiom be participating ?


According to http://acer.taketv.net/# they are (check the scoreboard in the bottom right)

Indeed but during the Axiom/TaKe drama TB said that he didn't want Axiom to be part of TaKe's events anymore. Maybe he changed his mind, it would be nice.

Also, I just read the rulesbook and i'm REALLY glad that pretty much all the concerns about the season 1 rules have been listened :

- removal of the special revive
- only 1 round
- additional rules about teams not being able to find a date for their match (like Axiom last time with their 5+ matches late)

Good job !


Yeah, the rulebook is MUCH better. Extra things you didn't mention:

- Less delay before and during the clanwar. No ROOT showing up 30 minutes late anymore.
- Only one chance for regame after a disconnect. No situations like Liquid vs MVP etc.

I hope both TakeTV is professional and strict enough to enforce the rules and the teams professional enough to oblige or otherwise not to participate. Last season was maybe excusable because of all the WCS stuff appearing midseason, but now it should be pretty clear that you have to be able to field a team every week. And teach your players how to not expose their IP addresses!

Also, every team now gets $3,500 in travel compensation instead of $1500.

Flaws:
- The mappool is again ultra-conservative. Especially Daybreak has no place in SC2 anymore.
- It doesn't answer what constitutes a team. Not sure if it needs a rule or not. The problem with Karont3 was the admin backtracking, not the decision
- Somewhere it says CEST. Daylight Saving Time ends soon
- The standings criteria 3-4 should be removed entirely, especially they shouldn't be before 5-6:

3. More wins overall in maps
4. Less losses overall in maps

Not only is criterion 4 completely redundant as 3 together with 2 (map difference) is the same, but the criteria shouldn't be before H2H. Again, these rules exist in football to encourage more offensive play, they don't make sense in SC2.


And I obviously hope they get an English and French caster for every clanwar.

This is a very good point. It has nothing to do in a league where you can't exceed a certain number of points in a match (5 in this case).

very very good

Edit: Hope they tweak the map pool and this will be perfect.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Only a chance for 3 teams? Kinda silly, placing top 7 shouldn't guarantee you entry again. I'd say top 4 with 6 qualifier spots, or 5 each. Makes it super hard for teams to qualify is all.

As others have said, please update the map pool and continue to update the map pool as the season plays out. It is quite boring to see maps being played that haven't seen the ladder for nearly 6 months. Just change it and move on.

- In my opinion it's disrespectful towards a tournament, turning up with your anonymous ladder account when you are supposed to be "dressed"
- Foreign language streams sometimes don't have score overlays and it's hard for viewers to know who it is
- You are supposed to represent your team and your account with clantag is the closest thing to a jersey ingame
- Confusion for admins, opponent players and casters as to who the guy is that joined the lobby, if he is even eligible to play etc.
- It was tedious to associate barcodes to the players in replaypacks afterwards

Oh yeah! Looking forward to Season 2 =) The rulebook seems to be pretty good, only update the mappool plz =) And plz, plz take care of more consistent english casts, I remember english casters not getting access to the scheduling (TotalBiscuit) and admins not responding to potential english casters (ESLTaiwan). I guess that wasn't really professional and I felt it was handled quite poorly.

And yaaay for no Barcodes allowed, really good move! I hope other tourneys will do the same soon

It´s getting way to big with 16 teams!
I think they must be splitted in 2 Divisions.

I appreciated what you did with your tournament but I doubt your team has the level required to participate in this. No offense.
