I believe we may have another big update to our current main menu in lotv, what you suggesting is great though, the flow looks great

Blizzard. Please take this as an example.
You must not fight too often with one enemy, or you will teach him all your art of war. - Imagination rules the world. - Soldiers generally win battles; generals get credit for them. - Ability is nothing without opportunity.

Oh my god, I know I should not be so amazed by this, because blizzard was supposed to do something like this years ago, but here I Im sitting in disbelieve how amazing would this be for online tournaments(like GO4SC2, Zotac etc..)

Blizzard please do something like this!
And btw give this man a cookie!

Would be interesting to have Blizzard act as a middleman for the cash end of things. I am thinking Entry Fees and the like as well as prize pools. There would likely have to be some governmental compliance stuff for it somewhere along the line.

Awesome stuff! I think an in-game prize system would be a great idea for microtransactions in SC2. The tournament host would enter in his money and maybe Blizzard would take a small cut (maybe even a static fee, like $5 or something), and the rest goes into the tournament.

Would be a great way for Blizzard to get more revenue for the game to continue to support it after LotV.

This is extremely well made. I hope blizzard's eSports division actually pay attention to threads like this on TL... they could really learn somethings their fans have to offer.

10/5. If we make noise, Blizzard will at least consider it.

with the SC2 team being as small as it seems to be, it's not very likely for this to be a part of LotV - unless they've already started developing something like that, which I really really hope. In-game tournaments would be so awesome!
first we make expand, then we defense it.

Looks amazing. I think Blizzard must be planning to do something like this for legacy of the void. They are just saving the good Battle.net for the last expansion. I mean even WC3 had in game tournaments; there's no way SC2 shouldn't. They just need some new features to sell the last expansion. That's my theory anyway.
It's spelled LOSE not LOOSE.

That is the extent of what I have designed.

As much as I would like in game tournaments, I don't think Blizzard's problem is simple UI design. They have to code what's behind too, which is a lot more work. Don't get me wrong, they could probably do it pretty easily, but the main "design" work as the OP calls it just isn't the pretty buttons.

Looks good, but I feel that with prize being something someone who creates the tournament just fills in, there would be no quarantee of there actually being a prize ( that is if anyone can create a tournament).


Yeah i was thinking this, it would be good if there could be a way to put up prize money, so the tournament maker puts in $50 or something, which gets automatically paid out to 1st/ 2nd when the tournament finishes to there paypal or something, not sure that would be possible but it would be good if it could be done


Blizzard already has a money system (b.net Balance or smth). If you were only able to use that money it be easy to guarantee that the money was there. In addition blizzard would have to give us a way to get the money out of the system again. Also they could collect a fee on this like they did with diablo, so it wouldn't be pointless for them either (if it blows up).

In general this looks really great, I hope blizzard will notice such an elaborate post (actually I'm sure they will) and act on it.
