To the contrary, the transparency is beneficial. This is bullshit, TB is calling out the bullshit. What's your problem?

Because it involves Take and this community is only ok with transparency when it doesn't involve people they like.
We'll fight whoever they send. We don't care, real team, fake team, Firecake, whatever, but the team feels uneasy about competing in a tournament where the rules can clearly be bent. What will that lead to during the event itself? Will teams get preferential treatment? Will teams even respect the rules at all? Who knows. ATC is a significant time commitment, we'd rather the tournaments integrity be beyond reproach.

Weird... CatZ and Caliber won games. And maybe those guys aren't available for whatever reason
Yea, they sent out Pet for the last game. I doubt Masa and Mini are available

While the situation is quite sad, this made me laugh really hard, thank you .
Well Axiom will make the playoffs either way, I hope you can smile knowing that.

TB is oppressing the poor tournament organizers! How dare he call them out publicly on the fact that they're misleading the teams participating in their event?!

I think a lot of people appreciate what Take does but he does always seem to be poor with admin type things. Today only further reinforces that point. So has anyone from Take studios contacted you at all about this sort of thing?

As they should, Takes events are wonderful and he is an incredible part of this scene, which makes it even sadder when things like this happen.

When you informed of this tournament, were you given a list of tight rulings that teams had to follow?
