I've got a small bit of capital and the prospects of a peripherals sponsor for a small 8-man invitational tournament for HoTS.
So which of your favourite players are currently playing the beta and which of them would you like to see participate in an invitational tournament?
To give you an idea of the format, it would be split across 2 days, BO3 for RO8 & RO4, then BO5 for finals.
Any pointers or ideas are welcomed as well, in order to make this an enjoyable tournament for all.
TL;DR: What's our dream lineup for 8-man HoTS tournament?

White-Ra
Agree, White-Ra
What they said
|
I would like to see Geiko.
Would be cool if you could get a beta key for him as well :'(
Seriously though, I would love to see Axslav play.
|
Babyknight, Morrow, Sheth, Catz...No other real suggestions.
EDIT: No wait, add Real to that list too. He does some insane shit with protoss in hots, really fun to watch.
|
Sort-of as well (it's a player)
|
|
Maybe the spanish armada?
|
White-Ra/ReaL/monchi/Daisy
|
Rotterdam, sheth, white-ra
|
WhiteRa, Morrow, Grubby and if they play HotS: Goody, TLO

I would like to see Stephano, White-Ra, Sheth, Real, Illusion, Morrow, BabyKnight and Thorzain/Demuslim.
|
white-ra please! he deserves it
|
|
|
I appreciate all the replies so far! Keep 'em coming.
|
Please Thorzain and demuslim - maybe even add in Stephano for the added hype!
|
|
All of the ROOT members have been playing a lot of HotS and are always fun to watch SLush CatZ TT1 especially, been playing HotS custom map in WoL a lot before beta came out MajOr Drewbie ViBe
I would also enjoy seeing NoNy and Illusion
|
Babyknight, Monchi, Real!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
Definately White Ra, I think everyone in the thread agrees on this.
A Bunch of Root and Liquid would be cool, especially Tyler. Stephano would be cool, maybe Destiny.
I think it'd be good to throw in the creative players like White Ra, TLO, Catz, to see what they do in HotS, cause the last 8 man tourney wasn't really HotS after ro8. Don't make the prize money too much, make it like just a bonus. Although in that case Stephano probably won't play.
|
If you can somehow contact Kiwikaki and get him to play that'd be awesome. Apparently he's been practicing HoTS (according to Catz and Kiwi's twitter) and it'd be sweet to see him play again.
|
NonY of course the savior of Protoss
|
Liquid Zenio Was watching his stream the other day and he had some crazy games.
|
Definitely White-Ra. May also add Catz, TT1, Slush, Morrow, BabyKnight, Thorzain, Demuslim.
P.s. i'll watch the tournament for sure! Thank you for organizing it!

P Whitera MC Ace
Z Destiny Catz Stephano
T Thorzain insert a slayers T player here
They made current metagame. WhiteRa showed us power of speşul tactics, Destiny showed us power orf Infestors Thorzain showed us power of endgame terran (sometimes he fails but anyway..) Ace showed power of 2 base play.(Btw i hate his playstyle.) Slayers Terran players showed us hellions map control power etc.
These players always invented something about game. They weren't lazy. They always tried something new and they always inspired us. If i was David Kim i would pay money to hire them for a month.
|
I've seen Slush on every single day. I vote Slush
|
|
Idra.
the entertainment value would go through the roof

Destiny/DeMuslim. I just want to see those two go at it again. I still think their matches at the Texas Lonestar Clash were some of the best ZvT I've ever seen!
|
TLO - Grubby - WhiteRa - Goody - Thorzain - Morrow - Lucifron
|
|
|
catz, destity, whitera, demuslim, rotti, (maybe day9 ? :D), nony and sheth!
|
P: Babyknight, State, Grubby
Z: Stephano, Morrow, Vortix
T: Goody, Lucifron, Thorzain
|
I'm keeping count right now of all the votes. Will let this thread run for a few more days then will probably create a poll with a shortlist.
Keep the names coming, you guys are awesome!

White-Ra and Morrow are awesome to watch.
Sheth too!
|
SsonLight - he might be an unknown at this point but I promise you won't be disappointed. If you have to justify, use him as your wildcard.
|
|
MorroW, DeMusliM and WhiteRa would be great fun
|
Rotterdam and Real have been displaying some good showings from the Protoss side of things. Very entertaining and creative. Sorry that I can only give Protoss perspective.
Oh, and obligatory vote for White-ra although I already know he's getting in.
|
Gotta be Sheth, he has been showing some sick HotS strats :D
|
|
P: SSonLighT Z: Slush T: ForGG
|
|
|
I agree with a previous poster, Root guys and in particular Kiwikaki
|
Get apollo ;D Also nony and demuslim
|
|
White ra, Destiny, any of the root guys would be good. Thorzaine, Dimaga, morrow and maybe ForGG.
|
TT1 definatly forGG would be nice , hes streaming the beta like 12 hours a day. nerchio , to get a forGG nerchio rematch in the final
|
|
|
Updated until this point.
I'm going to keep this running until Friday.
|
Catz, Destiny, Sheth, White-Ra
|
Idra
oh wait he would win the entire tournament.
|
Idra and machine if we're talking realistic. If talking unrealistic, DRG jaedong and nestea.

LOLOLOL. No. White-ra and tt1 are the first two that come to mind that i've seen playing a ton of hots and would probably be entertaining to see.

I cast my vote with this one
|
MKP, Day9 (just to see how good he REALLY is), White-ra, Thorzain, DeMuslim, Grubby, Stephano, Scarlett
|
NONY, LiquidTyler, the greatest man on earth
|
KiWiKaKi. If there's something awesome to be done, he'll find it.
|
Real. His stream has been really fun to watch
|
QXC would be a fine addition :D
|
Grubby, Whitera, Idra, Dimaga, Thorzain, Morrow, TLO, Qxc
|
Can't get over the response thus far!
I'll keep this going for round about another 16 hours or thereabouts. White-Ra is killing it in the votes!
|
Stephano and White-Ra!!!!!!!
|
TLO! He had some really cool ideas plays with swarm host the last time I watched his stream.
