This seems a little late. Lol.
|
No LP page for this tournament?
|
What's the format of this (double/single elim)/ is it 3 that make it to WCG finals? WCG really has to step it up, I used to look up to them, now it's just like they don't even care anymore ><
Also, Kawaii fighting!!!

wow talk about last minute >_<
Thanks Spyte for letting us know who's playing!
|
Yeah I'd like to know the format/map pool X_X, I really hope there is a veto system or something other then a "this is the starting map, loser picks from there" system.
|
Pretty cool that it's going to be at comic con...
|
Cool, should be KawaiiRice all they way!
|
I wonder what happened between last year's WCG USA being a complete failure to this one actually happening.
|
what's prize pool // how many go to finals // what's format
|
$100 // 1 without pay // bo1 single elimination bracket
|
|
|
lol wtf are the brackets, this was so poorly planned out/advertised by wcg, are they even trying?
|
Why isn't this tournament's stream listed on the top right with other livestreams?
|
Wow this is such a fail I can't find like any prize/bracket/format... they really went beyond the game ><

Not to mention that the gamma of the stream is very high and the co-caster isn't adding anything to the stream whatsoever.
Can't blame him since he's from ESEA and usually casts CS but still.. at least put some effort and not be silent.
Completely greed with you

I attended New York Comic Con and watched much of the WCG finals here. There were many disconnects and I could also tell this event was not promoted as well as it should be. I felt bad for Col.Trimaster and Col.Sasquatch as their match had at least 3-4 disconnects while the games were well in progress.
Because of so many disconnects, they finals between Trimaster and Sasquatch extended into the time after the show floor closed so all the attendees watching, including me were kicked out of the floor. Kind of sucks there was no fanfare at the end, but congrats QXC!

Every year WCG USA seems to be more and more poorly organized/advertised. What gives? This should be one of the biggest North American events (taking place at an awesome venue) and every time it falls flat. I think the people at WCG should really re-evaluate what they're doing and get themselves straight.
|
wait so what were the results?
|
Paul Brewer knew what he was doing. When he left, it seemed to go down-hill.
|
How long before WCG dies?
They aren't really impressing anyone in NA, at least. I have yet to hear anything good from this region.
|
Is there even a results bracket anywhere? I can't find it on Liquipedia or on WCG USA website.
|
Who won WCG USA I can't find brackets anywhere as well!
