Two things though. 1) I still think it is questionable to allow alliance of players such as Bounty Hunters or Baguette to participate and here they even got a direct invite and didn't have to go through a qualifier. While I would love to see French players, an alliance between Millenium (Lilbow, Marinelord), Nuit Blanche (PtitDrogo) and AAA (MiNiMaTh, Chubz, PsiOniC) would be better. 2) Does anyone know who will be Fnatic's partner. With only 1 player in their roster the invite is also somehow questionable. Otherwise GL for the tournament. Hope it will be awesome! | ||

When I was setting up the league I was afraid of going down the 'Bounty Hunters' route with allowing alliances. I looked at each alliance request specifically to make sure that each alliance would be for the best for the league. The majority of players on Baguette are from Mill / aAa / nB as you mentioned (I think only one player on the entire roster isn't?) Basically these three teams did not wish to compete this season for their own reasons (a shame as aAa and nB have both been consistent contenders throughout the first three seasons of the league, with aAa even making the playoffs in Season 2.) In this case instead of excluding players who have always enjoy playing the SC2ITL, I felt it made sense to allow them to take part if they had a way of taking part. They were originally going to take part in the qualifier, but things changed up a bit when we saw how many sign-ups we had. Originally I had 'saved' an invite for Millenium. When it came to the qualifier I had 7 spots to fill and I also had three teams who I felt were significantly stronger than others in the qualifier (imG, PrOp, Baguette) and so I gave out the invites so that there would only be four qualifier spots, saving time running a losers bracket etc. (which we had to run in the end anyways because a team dropped out, but originally it was something I really didn't want to do because of time constraints.) I know this topic is very much a matter of opinion, and I am of course going to be biased because I want my league to have the best competition possible, but I hope it helps others maybe get a bit of an idea about my thought process and also understand that I didn't just blindly accept any random group of players thrown together. Fnatic have Harstem from their main team and souL from their academy. Their official name for the league is Fnatic +2 - originally it was an alliance with ALTERNATE, but then ALTERNATE dropped their players (apart from ShoWTimE). Fnatic will play with ShoWTimE and Lambo. Again a very similar scenario to above, I wanted to allow players who had previously played in the SC2ITL (ALTERNATE made semi-finals last season) to take part and it also helped Fnatic who needed an alliance. Enjoy the games! | ||

The first week was really fun to watch. Really enjoyed the Fnatic v Invasion games and the Root v Axiom ones with an amazing show by Catz. | ||

That is an upset ! To be fair it was the group of death. And Redbloods really surprised me. Thank you for the quality stream. | ||
