![[image loading]](http://gamecom.plantronics.com/images/faceoff_header.jpg) Introducing the First Official Plantronics GameCom Face-Off!
Plantronics GameCom Face-Off is excited to introduce GameCom Face-Off, a series of winner take-all, community voted show matches for $500 cash and streamed live on Twitch.TV.
The first Face-Off event, featuring StarCraft 2, will showcase five of the most well-known and fierce SC2 competitors from around the world. The community has the opportunity to vote which of these four players will take on EG's iNcontroL in a single best-of-three map series:
Voting has officially been extended one additional week and will be open through Monday, June 18 at 8 pm EDT. Once selected, the two players will battle it out in a live match, shoutcasted by HDStarcraft.
All community voters will automatically be entered into a drawing to receive a pair of GameCom 780 headsets.
Cast your vote on the GameCom Facbook page and stay tuned for the match's broadcast information!

Sounds pretty cool, why only a best of 3 for the show match though? Why not have it be a best of 5??

Awesome when things like this pop up! Can't wait to play one of these great players 
|
obviously everyone will vote White-Ra, but I want to see Hawk too!

no offense but including white-ra in this poll is silly... there's no way any of the other players can possibly compete. you're basically including a world famous pro player with 3 amateur NA players.
why not just announce a white-ra vs incontrol showmatch

I think you are a little harsh calling KawaiiRice an amateur player That being said i agree that this is most likely going to be iNcontroL vs. White-Ra, but rather because of his special tactics and the fact that he is awesome, rather than the fact that he is the better player

pretty much... And some people are taking xeris's comment the wrong way..... Regardless of skill or any other argument white-ra's popularity alone will win this poll...
I was hoping to attempt to vote for myself but you can't =/ oh well...
|
Lets go for an upset in the poll! :D

My thoughts exactly... However I will try my best to destroy White-Ra in the polls. If there's one thing Americans can do better than anyone else it is elections.

yeah i agree with this. Personally, I would love to see either Kawaii or Ver play against Incontrol in a showmatch.

Gl ver, hawk, and kawaii!

Good luck Geoff! Hope to see you play Kawaii personally. :D
And yay for Gamecom for sponsoring our team! <3
|
anyone who does not vote Ver is scum
##vote Ver
|
Voted Ver just for you guys!!
|
White-ra is a good player and a great guy, but is probably the most overrated when it comes to skill level. I'm hoping Hawk takes it, glhfgg guys !
Haven't heard of Ver, but wouldn't mind him winning either... actually KR is really nice a cute too... But white-ra is white-ra... fml.
|
should have all 4 of them compete against incontrol! more showmatches = more games = more viewers = more love for sc2 and everyone involved!
|
|
|
GO VER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
Voted for Ver..of course :-D.
|
I say as a community, we put together $100 and have a lesser show match with the ppl who got 2nd and 3rd in the polls! So we can spread around the love a little more, after all, more games of Starcraft 2 can never be a bad thing. Who's with me? I'll put up $5, if you guys want to actually do it :D
|
I'm voting Quantic_Hawk, for the Swarm
Any plans for a Plantronics GameCon Daily Tournament too?
|
As a side note, why the hell this "cast your vote" is so tied up into "facbook", not many ppl in their right mind use "facbook" :S
I would vote for White-Ra (since he is my all time favorite sc2 player), but this system prevents me in doing that. (also i think there's a quite good rant around the web about why using and relying on facebook for promotions is quite a bad idea)
|
|
|
Vote Ver! As much as I like White-ra he's already got WAY more exposure.
|

Poll: Why did you vote for Ver?He's a Sexy Beast (8) 40% He's better than me at Mafia (6) 30% His articles on TL are amazing (4) 20% He's awesome at SC2 (2) 10% 20 total votes Your vote: Why did you vote for Ver? (Vote): He's a Sexy Beast
(Vote): He's better than me at Mafia
(Vote): He's awesome at SC2
(Vote): His articles on TL are amazing
You see, I think the answer of who to vote for here is obvious. VER HWAITINGGGG~~~!!!!!!!!

This sudden "extension" is very fishy.
Keep the votes coming for Ver.

Longer Day Phase better for townies

To chime in, why bo3? Bo5 or even better, Bo7 seems to be most entertaining for showmatches.
