This should be very fun to watch and is reminiscent of ye olde HDH invitational back in the day. Brings back old memories and hopes of new ones to be fond of. Will be watching, thanks HD and PainUser as well as the sponsors!

Hey guys, have been working tirelessly over the past 4 days to put this together. Have also been playing HotS every waking moment. So excited for the possibilities and strategies we are going to see in this tournament. The amount of meta game shifting I have experienced leads me to believe we are going to see some truly unique playstyles here. This is the first of hopefully more to come, lets make it a special community event. We may have some guest casters on for early rounds in the tournament as well so stay tuned.

Special Thanks:
Aldenx: Main Admin and Stream Technician (if you like what you see get in touch with him)
Chris "Rezudox" Burke: All tournament graphics and overlays (same goes for him)
Walter from Astro: Excellent gaming peripherals and also eager to work with esports driven projects
Kevin Lin from Twitch: Primary supporters and incredibly easy to work with. Community driven mindset and projects

And most of all, the excellent players who are participating in this event and showcasing their new skills to everyone.


1) You have been working tirelessly for 4 days. So fucking impressive for somebody whos's basically unemployed. Just saying... so many people in and ALSO OUT OF esports work their asses off, in the US, in Europe and everywhere else. Working your ass off is a given these days.... just saying. Not meaning to offend you.

2) I hope you reconsider the idea about guest casters and get them for all/most games. I think the majority of the community really enjoys pro(-co)-casters and it would make a lot of viewers really happy to see this (as much as possible) and it seems like you might have the possibility.

I hope I stayed within TL policy, because I tried.

Have a good day.

You guys can edit the original post and add TT1 and Illusion in it. Btw, very nice Lineup, some of the players are obviously favorites, but I am looking forward to this tourney!

What is the point in this rant? It's just offensive, he is not bragging or anything, just saying that he put a lot of time in this tournament and hopes it will be a success... Had a bad day?

Painuser wasn't bragging about the hard work that he was doing but it's still infuriating to see comments like that. If I was in a job that I loved, then I would work my ass off every day - and with HD and Painuser it certainly seems needed.

Map pool is abysmal but thats expected given its blizzard beta maps. Sucks to see money invested in these maps though...Oh well players are great game is okay (needs patching obviously) so this might hold some potential!

GLGL Whitera!

I hope some interesting strategies come out of this that flip what people have been criticizing about HOTS. Like maybe the warhound is actually a terrible unit and we just didn't know it.
