The cynic in me asks how they got funded so quickly. Something smells awry, maybe a publicity stunt?


It's a Kickstarter. There's not really a way to fake that. Basetrade has been grooming their fanbase for a while now and they got about 200 of them, me among them, to donate a total of 17k. That's it.
There have been Kickstarters that raised over $1.000.000 in a day, so it isn't even that special really.

Congrats Rifkin and Zombie Grub - they have kept SC2 alive in NA for a long time. Lots of long hours and hard work will hopefully pay off for them.

There was a whole Remax segment about how Basetrade couldn't do an offline event because of their style. It offended me, since Rifkin and ZG are probably the best SC2 content providers of late.

I can't wait to see how they choose to put this together. It will have issues b/c its their first offline event, but I bet the issues will be minor and easily fixed for their second. Can't wait.

We may not be thinking of the same conversation, but I believe the jist of that conversation was that Rif and ZG couldn't replace people like Tastetosis and Apollo at premier events like DH and IEM, but they would fit great at events like Homestory Cup. This event will have their own flavor, and will be awesome!



i'll gladly trade taste and polo for graham and jessica. Just need a third caster according to MU for "expertise".

Crowdfunding is back B O Y S. In all seriousness, I'm glad that we are still able to trust community figures that have proven to be reliable (and #passionate).

As of two hours ago, there are 20 more pairs of slippers and 25 more card packs available for backers. They're also only $30 CAD away from shooting for the larger venue.
The world is better when every background has a chance.

I've been following BaseTrade for a long time since their DreamHack community streams where they pulled like 200-300 viewers and got the chance to meet them at IEM Toronto. It's incredible witnessing how far they've come from an indie stream to one of the larger community figures to hosting another live event in Toronto (Sorry rest of Canada, we are just that good!). I really should get on supporting this Kickstarter and that's something I do rarely. If the event bombs, well it's their first try and nothing wrong with that. On the plus side if it goes well we get another incredible event and no one regrets it.

Hat tip to BaseTradeTV. This is sick! Events in Canada are awesome! (I still keep the NASL finals there as one of my favorite events).
