With the recent departure of the Zotac Cup, I am creating a SC2 tournament that will allow players to continue to participate in a weekly, free tournament with a cash payout. Also, there are thousands of fans like myself who enjoyed the extra SC2 content, and I'd definitely like to see this gap not exist.
The tournament will likely start next week. We will make a post in the tournament section/reddit when the details are finalized.
The Details as of Now: - BaseTradeTV will continue to cast the series. - The weekly tournament will follow the Zotac point system. - The point system will be used to determine who plays in the monthly finals. - Weekly Prize $100/Monthly Prize $200
Up in the Air
- The tournament may be a combined NA/EU tournament with rules to handle multi-server match ups. If not, it will be server locked to EU first. - The goal is to run an NA AND EU weekly/mothly. - The prize pool is funded by myself. After the first month, I will seek sponsors and possibly open a Patreon (the latter if sponsors/myself can't hedge the costs).
If you have and questions or suggestions, please let me know. i.e. if Zotac did something you didn't like or didn't do something you wanted, tell me and we'll see what we can do!

nicerino! with bttv backing it up it should prevail and even be at least even. thanks
|
awsome stuff lycan! remember me? we played on ladder a couple weeks ago :D
|
Will you use community maps? Would be awesome to see some unique games that only different maps can bring.
|
|
Excellent initiative. I will definitely participate when I can.
|
Another option, if expenses are too much, is to simply lower the prize pool. Not ideal. But with no competitors, I'm sure you'll still get a large turn out of highly skilled players with a $75/$150 weekly/monthly.
|
Awesome! Can't wait to play it :D
|
When Zotac announced they were removing SC2 my heart sank especially since they've been around since they beta. So glad to see new tournaments like this one and Desrow's coming up to fill the void. Can't wait to play and watch!

Awesome thing to do man Really great for the scene and sc2. Hopefully as much people as possible will sign up and/or watch the stream.

Sign Ups are open here: http://challonge.com/fpnsx7rf Only now have I noticed this post. Are there replays from this tournament somewhere? Also, I noticed you use "Double Harvesting teamliquid", which I am not sure if it contains the fix for unable-to-queue-after-harvest-bug. DH 3x3 does fix it... stated it many times already
