This thread is interesting, thanks for taking the time to put it up ^_^ As said before, the medal is awesome.
There's a small typo though.. just add the 'e' in 'defats'.

Thanks again, was awesome! And Bear needs to somehow, as a near-no-name, continue being our Official Unofficial World Champion XD

No. We wait for the glorious return of Bear. (I hope)

Bear is going to retire and go down as the greatest player ever
|
Bear, the Caldeum sniper... When will you be sent out again?
|
I can't wait until Bear gets sent out again and it turns out he's playing fucking Ssak or something, then he loses.
|
seriously, guys, I think you should create an HoTS championship... if you won't keep track of it, then I will >_>
Any progress on that idea of making an actual medal to send to the UWC? Or was that not a serious suggestion?

We need to have a kickstarter to make an Unofficial Official World Championship and then send it to whoever has it. Tell them the rules and how he must pass it on after he loses at a LAN event.
I mean, the community DID send MKP to Anaheim. Who wouldn't chip in money to create a fucking title belt? Someone get on that.

Would be funny if Bear wouldnt get to play another game.

funny... or depressing? : P
Maybe there should add a clause that requires a win thats a bo3 or more; a bo1 seems like a sad way to end on our UWC on. Although I guess that's one step toward "Official WC"

Well considering the title has a tendency of changing on a regular basis and you would need a medal for each champion its not particularly feasible. Not necessarily... just send one to the current champion along with a note that he should give it to the next champion. Hey, if game companies can make us accept the TOS of a game we already bought (and can't return), why can't we make a progamer accept the TOS of a medal? Maybe wait until the title belongs to a foreigner (haha fat chance) or someone else who responds to foreign fans, then explain it to them...

I say go for the custom championship belt. Would be a cooler image.
You would just have to contact the team, ship it off, and tell them to hand it off when he is beat.
|
I agree, something cool like a championship belt would make the players somewhat want it. Of course because it's a community thing it might have trouble gaining legitimacy behind it (like if Blizzard supported it, it would be no problem). Along with this comes with everyone agreeing on the conditions as there has never been any type of tradition in SC in drive it. I could imagine something like Kespa being Kespa and squashing the idea. The last thing would be of course the physical deterioration of the belt as it goes from person to person lol.

Actually getting players to go along with that would be exceptionally difficult.

We should wait for Bear... but if he hasn't played by the time the GSL Code S HotS champion is crowned in June(?) then I think we should strip him of the title and give it to the GSL champion.
To take it even further, there should be a limit to how long you can hold the title without playing in an eligible game before being stripped of it. Maybe 3 or 4 months since last defense?
|
I say wait for bear but if he doesn't play by a certain date either take the winner of the previous major HOTS event and figure out the world champion (if he dropped it or still has it etc) or take the winner of the next major HOTS event.
