Race Wars are played in the following way: players are divided into teams [teams = StarCraft races]. Each person will play 4 bo3 series, and after 6 play days (on each we'll have 2 bo3 TvZ, 2 bo3 TvP and 2 bo3 ZvP) we'll have some team standings based on their players' overall W/L balance as well as individual player standings in each team. TOP 3 players from TOP 2 teams will advance to playoff, as well as TOP 2 players from the least successful team. Playoff is Single Elimination, bo5 / bo7 in final.

21 hour notice about a qualifier is really not that great.
Regardless, good luck to all participating!

It looks like the good old days of Ritmix RSL come back in a new look! Thanks Cybbet for supporting and Alex007 for the organization and streaming! Well done as always!

Miszu, FireCake, Verdi are our Qualifier winners! The are joining the main stage, which starts on Thursday. We'll be back with detailed schedule on soon.
|
This is one of the weirder formats I've ever seen, but I like the originality
|
Don't miss the first day of Race Wars on Thursday, Jan 21 3:00pm GMT (GMT+00:00). Here are the matchups:
ByuN vs HyuN
ByuN vs MC
HyuN vs MC
Major vs HyuN
HyuN vs puCK
Major vs puCK HyuN will play his all 4 series for the Race Wars stage and then will wait for other zergs' results while all other players will still have 2 more series to play later.
|
What's the main stream for this event?

In Russian we'll always have either me (at twitch.tv/cleverpress as well as on Russian stream platforms) or Pomi (goodgame.ru/channel/pomi) so you may consider one of our streams to be the "main" one if that's important for whatever reason. We're still open for all community casters though.

This event has the vibe of Ritmix RSL. It's a good thing!

Unfortunately, today ByuN said that he is very sick now and he cannot take part in our tournament so we're replacing him with aLive.
Don't miss our first play day on Thursday, Jan 21 3:00pm GMT (GMT+00:00):
aLive vs HyuN
aLive vs MC
HyuN vs MC
Major vs HyuN
HyuN vs puCK
Major vs puCK
You can (hopefully) find streams at:
BaseTradeTV
Pomi
EmSc Tv
Next play day will be held on Jan 26th and will feature Bomber, Bunny, Serral, Scarlett, MaNa and Verdi.

I've just seen that patience winning over hero was at 3.60 - Whoever bet on that must've made quite a bit of cash
|
Hi, I've sent you a message on TL to cast the tournament in french
|
Is there going to be VODs or at least a way to check the results?
|
I'll update all results here in the first post. All VODs in Russian will be up on my YouTube playlist. If BaseTrade shows up today, they will clearly provide you with English language VODs.
