For more info on winner's league Style: + Show Spoiler + Every player has one life, upon losing a game they can not be sent out again. The winning player of a game, must play in the next game. This means a single player can eliminate an enemy team, or even after winning the First 2 games, the final player for the other team can "all Kill" your team and secure victory.
Map Order: + Show Spoiler +
Requirements: + Show Spoiler + Please respect the organizers, by giving forewarning of any changes or inabilities of players/teams to participate.
All players must have an account on the North American SC2 servers. At least one member of the team must be 1900+ Silver, 1700+ gold, or 1500+ platinum on the North American SC2 server to be eligible, this does not guarantee you will get a spot due to time constraints.
To Register: + Show Spoiler + There will be team slots available on a First come First serve basis, but we will also hold some slots available for the highest rated teams that sign up or for more famed players. We will try and allow as many players as possible to play, but due to time constraints and other reasons we might have to limit the number of teams.
Submit your SC2 account info and teammates information in the following format:
Team Name: Finger boomers Starter: Poker.Liquid 1800 platinum Zerg Teammate: MaeJae.yoOn 2600 platinum zerg teammate: Monkey.Milk 2100 platinum Terran
Changes to who you wish to be starter, team composition, or races played can be made as long as it is done in a timely manner before tournament Start. Don't expect to replace every player a minute before the tournament starts. Also a server wipe is imminent, if there is a wipe, PM me ASAP if there any name.id changes on your team. Please keep up to date on the goings on of the tournament to make things run smoothly.
Rules: + Show Spoiler +Subject to change Who you report results to will be determined before tournament Start and posted in the standings section. Each player must stick with the same race (or random) throughout the tournament once it has started. Also team composition can not change after the Start of the tournament (can't swap players around). If a player can not Stay throughout, his absence will be counted as an instant loss whenever he would have played, and you will have to play 2 lives versus 3 lives (or in the case of 2 absences, with 1 life vrs 3 lives). You must allow streaming of your match if it is asked and has not started yet. The semifinals and finals might have a Special format to encourage more games for streaming purposes which is to be determined, or a different map pool. POSSIBLE Rule for the finals (will be finalized soon) + Show Spoiler +The POSSIBLE rule amendment to make the finals more epic, to be decided based on time constraints and enthusiasm. In a nut shell one player for each team will have "two lives", to extend the series from a best of 5 to a best of 7. He can not use this second chance, until everyone on his team has been defeated has been defeated once (including himself). The Map rotation after the fifth game, will restart at the top with Lost Temple, and proceed down. Example: Stork vs Bisu JangBi vs Bisu FBH vs Bisu Jangbi vs Bisu Jangbi vs fantasy Jangbi vs iloveoov JangBi vs Bisu SKT1 Wins
In the event of a drop or disconnect: It will be based on review of replays by admin if both teams can not agree on a fair outcome. Only in the case of a clear definite advantage will a Win be awarded, or in the case it seems clearly intentional. Non-streamed games can have observers if both teams agree to allow observers. So if one team doesn't want observers, you will have to respect their wishes and not observe your teammate's games.
Free Agents: If you are looking for a team, Just post your SC2 Account information (name.id, rating and league, race), and I will list you here, from here contact each other and form teams.

Yep, sounds awesome (and I hope teamEG participates :p )
And it seems it's gonna be a busy weekend in terms of tournaments to follow ^^
|
Yeah it should be, trying something a little bit different with this one to hopefully make it very interesting and add some fun team strategy like who you send out on which maps, and who is your starter etc.
Also Team EG I hope you guys represent and send up a team or two! North America can't let Europe do everything

Holy crap this is awesome! I'm puttin a team together dacthehork I'm begining to love you!

This tournament will hopefully run smoothly, I should be getting some additional help (already had a few people offer) and I will come up with some better methods of reporting and handling of the tournament. So everyone thinking of participating, the previous one went rather smoothly for a first try and matches went without much delay, even in the face of multiple no shows and having to shuffle in replacements. Hopefully this will be a fun event for participators and fun to watch and we won't have any beginner mistakes!
Anyway NA needs more events, sad I can't play in this one

I don't know about moving the time up a bit but having it over a longer period kind of defeats the purpose. We would rather have a quick event with a ton of games then a 5 week tournament where you play 3 games every week.

Hey my brother and I are looking for a third. Does anyone want to join us? Im really good but I don't know how good he is so we probably won't be favored to win the tournament. So anyone that wants to join for fun can join us.

Hey guys if you are in the free agents section, add eachother as friends and try and work out some teams, or just ask people around your skill level (near the top of platinum divisions) if they are interested. One of the points behind this is to get people playing together in sort of team environment.

haven't talked to the rest of the team yet caus ebnet is down but they might make a team also and so we are called Root's Bandits
ps; is there a way to have replacements at all? during/before the tournament?

not during the event.
Before the event you may switch up races/players if you contact me in a reasonable time frame before the tournament.
Also that is a really strong team, definitely a favorite.

Spor there are a ton of good players in the free agents list, 2200+ ratings etc. If you take some initiative and get together with other free agents, you can form a really solid team pretty fast.
Right now we already have at least 8 teams participating. This means you can expect at least 4 best of five matches if you make it to the finals, aka 12-20 matches.
The POSSIBLE rule amendment to make the finals more epic, to be decided based on time constraints and enthusiasm.
In a nut shell one player for each team will have "two lives", to extend the series from a best of 5 to a best of 7. He can not use this second chance, until everyone on his team has been defeated (including himself).

that goes for all teams registered, please submit your starter and races (or random) of all players
|
!!! watch out for warlen axslav and strife!! and of course for my baby cauthonluck's team!! good to see you guys in this! gl.
also I work on sunday I will most likely make it to the tournament in time but if not, qxc.qxc or bubba.root can replace me if that's ok.
oh and please change team name to : ' Root Gaming ' since it doesnt seem we'll be having another root team playing.
also after reset, we have new identifiers; drewbie.root catz.root, sheth still has same idf, thanks!

-thanks
|
btw: Would it be possible to rotate starting order during the tourney? If you're worried about fairness we'd just to a predetermined rotation and go in a circle or something.
|
So where do we meet? Is there a certain time or are u posting the match ups on here and we just need to wait? I need to organize among my team members, little info plz.
|
btw what's up with all the huge maps lol might wanna throw a couple 1v1 maps imo
|
Catz good point, will be done, will have to be the later maps as the first 3 affect the starter choice Note: Map 5 is now Blistering Sands, bringing the map pool to 3/5 1v1 maps.
No you can't change starter, this is to avoid confusion and make it run smoother.
Where to meet, and how to report games, will be posted up when I do the brackets, I have some helpers so the bottom of the bracket and the top of the bracket will report wins/losses to different people.
|
dacthehork I sent you a PM as to the name/identifier change of one of my team mates please check it out when u get a chance.

So the games will be streamed later tonight, but they will be replays? And this is at 9PM EST, 6 PM Pacific correct?
Just want to make sure I know what is going on as this seems like a cool idea.
|
Games will be streamed live
I think this is the first big "winner's league" style tournament in NA for sc or sc2, so should be pretty exciting
|
Ah. I looked at the bracket and saw some teams advanced, but that was just because not enough teams or some people backing out I assume? Alright. Will tune in later then!
|
Yeah 14 teams requires 2 byes
|
Any info on which games will be streamed?
|
Up to the casters, they will try and pick the best possible games.
|
Hey just a piece of advice; when doing edits on liquipedia, use the preview button until you're done. doesnt clog up the edits-log as much

Update to team HTTM
Kehlsh.kehlsh is being replaced by telecom.telecom. Sending PM
|
so when is this being streamed today? at 9 pm EST?

Note: if the enemy team wants they can make you play with the previously listed starter.

Someone should send the replay of that to Day[9] for his dailies. I'm sure he could have some fun with that, best strat ever.

Have enjoyed the stream so far, even with some games being one-sided. Once you guys get a stable player base and a bit more exposure it will improve exponentially. Looking forward to watching it get better every week.

Wow Battlecruisers in the mid game from Drewbie! Very cool! Congrats to Team Root for making it to the semi's!

Very good games now. Getting to the good matches. But early games were a good laugh. Can't wait for Faux Fox vs EG.

I can't remember Boxer v Baxter. You happen to have a link anywhere? I can probably Youtube it though if its mildly famous.
But yeah. Ended up being a nice balance of skill and laughs despite rough start. Great tournament. I love the format. Can't wait for ITL Main Event Announcement.

I'm so confused regarding the format of the finals.
|
|
The finals are NOW LIVE on iCCup TV!!!
I hope you guys are enjoying the games as much as I am!
|
Ok, the explaination now explains this a bit better. Using Team EG as an example because I know all their players, lzgamer starts and he plays until he loses. *If* (big if here) lzgamer loses, Machine or Louder plays until they lose and lzgamer can't return until both Machine and Louder lose.
Edit: This has been a really fun tournament to watch. The constant munching of a commentator and the amazing floating nexus strategy really made the night.

lol epic fail, tanks arn't positioned well on high ground so marauders on low ground kill it OH GOD SO SICK BY LZ, BARRACKS STOPS THE CC FROM LANDING but yeah, for those people who complain about tanks, they probably arnt using them well as evidenced by this game
|
the TL wiki says we were all-killed by team EG. That's not true, our 3rd player beat LzGamer then we went down 3-1! plz correct that ^^

LZ vs Fredz was great. Both had a chance to win it. I think LZ lost it when he didn't move in after he got the High Yield. Still happy to see Louder and Machine now though Well played both LZ and Fred.

Going to bed now, guess I'll see who won tomorrow. Definitely enjoy these tourneys though, the format is really fun and makes things exciting. Though it can take a while.

gah, 2nd game simple BO win
|
Fredz is doing well. I haven't heard of him before this. Quebec upsetting EG.
|
Wow we have been at 1300+ viewers for several hours now. Thank you SOOOO much everyone!
|
commentators said each team can revive 2 players, and it's a potential bo7
but if both teams can revive 2 players, it's a potential bo9, minimum 5 games.
Q=Quebec, E=EG
Q1>E1 Q1>E2 Q1>E3 Q1>E1 revived E2 revived > Q1 E2 revived > Q2 E2 revived > Q3 E2 revived > Q1 revived E2 revived vs Q2 revived
-------------------
if they can only revive 1 player each, then it's potential bo7, minimum 4 games
Q1>E1 Q1>E2 Q1>E3 E1 revived > Q1 E1 revived > Q2 E1 revived > Q3 E1 revived vs Q1 revived
|
mm It's actually 1 revive per team, it's best of 7
You can see the rules in the first post
The next one will probably have quicker starting rounds to speed things up and start 3 hours earlier.
|
ah ok,
i could've sworn they said 2 in the commentaries.
if so, my bad.
edit: ok, so i wasn't hallucinating, the commentators corrected themselves =)

With all the confidence he better deliver. Fredz did extremely well. Machine is probably my favorite Zerg player at the moment. He did great. Hope we go all the way to a 7th match though!

noo machine bad micro loses a queen to 6 zlot pressure and then doesnt micro well at all vs stalkers with roaches mass stalkers vs mass roaches O.o stalkers micro well but machine probes that roaches still rape them straight up

"Looks like zerg is going to come out on top!" >> Zerg gets crushed
|
seriously these commentators.... toss came out with like 15 stalkers at the end wasnt even close

I knew slush was really good the rest of the surprised me just because I didn't know them. Slush vs Sheth was huge as either team could have easily won that. Slush adapted well to sheth's style (lost 0-2 last time), and pulled it out.
|
Beastly comeback from Machine
|
wow, toss had that game and just got overpowered by macro. If you're going to proxy a robo, dont pussy out on it...
|
Machine was very well in that game. After that I have full confidence in his ability to come back and win it for EG.
Slush is pretty beastly with the Zerg though
|
Absolutely amazing game, and spectacular comeback from Machine.

Very unexpected, probably the three biggest names in the tournament were the 3 EG players and they got taken out by Canada. Great work guys, and thank you to the organisors for a fun one day tourney to watch.

The POSSIBLE rule amendment to make the finals more epic, to be decided based on time constraints and enthusiasm.
In a nut shell one player for each team will have "two lives", to extend the series from a best of 5 to a best of 7. He can not use this second chance, until everyone on his team has been defeated has been defeated once (including himself). The Map rotation after the fifth game, will restart at the top with Lost Temple, and proceed down.
Thats worded pretty badly... the whole 2 Lives thing....

I feel sorry about any misconceptions about extra life in finals, It's only 1
yah sorry about the wording, I included an example to help
Great games by all, and hope everyone plays in the 2nd one, might be looking for ways to speed things up of course so please give feedback!

well, the commentator did message them (or one of them) the updated rules before they chose Machine, and asked again if they were sure after they chose Machine.
anywho, gj team Quebec. something to think about, Guillaume Patry was from Quebec too. hope this is the start of something good

meh its fine~ was just a misunderstanding

Point being they said 2 earlier... Kinda sucks, but its not like there was $1000 running on it.... i would feel bad then. Thanks for setting everything up =)

Can we expect replays from this show? At least semis and finals? Please!
Btw,
Kinda sucks to blame now the system and rate down Quebec's great win when you had example in the spoiler for so long, and when casters asked twice if EG is sure to pick Machine as they had just one life left. 1300+ people saw on stream casters asking that and still Lz said in-game, when we all saw Machine gonna lose, "If I knew we had just one life left..."
Anyhow, great tournament!

Probably the fact that you knew your team has one life left and still picked Machine to play but when he lost you said at ingame's chat "If we knew...", it is kinda lol indeed.

GG's guys, was a very fun tournament!

Don't understand how the COMMENTATORS messed up the 2 lives thing, i thought the Bo7 made it VERY clear but whatever i guess. Good games none the less.
|
mm dont worry about it, just a fun tourney, focus on the good stuff. Those casters also did a very long cast for the community.
Epic moments: Nexus Liftoff Warlen 5 second rule He went afk for 5 seconds at the start while typing out 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Giving his opponent a 5 second head start, then proceeded to play. There is some backstory to this, check out RIse's vods. The finals

Wow, RumZ512 from the livestream here.
I passed out during the finals (It was like 2:30 AM,) I can't believe Team Quebec won.
Also, Fred(z?) vs IZ/Louder games were off the chain TvT, some of the best play by far.
Also CL did some serious work out there as well, it's too bad he couldn't stop the allkill from LZ, he's definitely one of my favorites, next to TLO and apparently I might have to add Fred to the list of watched players.
Outstanding terran play last night.

Outstanding terran play last night. It was some great games! Team Quebec won with solid play really. I enjoyed the hell out of watching them!
I have not seen a lot of TvT myself before that (a couple games here or there) so those were some good games to see sort of early on. A lot of cool strategies were used TvT is too cool!
CauthonLuck did a great job, you just can't win them all. But I 'm glad to have him in our main event against Catz! It will be a great matchup!

Is there a link somewhere where I can grab the replay pack?
I have never seen a beta with such a plethora of accessible information, but I can't say I mind it either.
|
anyway we can get the tourney to end earlier by either having less games or start earlier? im sure some people like myself have work the next morning but love to watch these things live... i had to crash at 130..
|
^ haha for sure man, right? I had to get up at 6 and I was struggling to watch the games UP to the finals, let alone Fred vs LZ/Louder
|
I can post the replays I have from Honk For Hong Jin Ho vs Team Quebec if anyone wants them. It was pretty close.
|
Agreed. Perhaps a 7 or 8 EST start time? That was even some Europeans can watch the beginning rounds too. Going to 2 AM was a little rough for me.
|
There should definitely be a replay pack.
