We can just not vote for this person I guess

Sign-ups look good. herO and Parting for Korea are already signed up. Itlay and Finnland Aces are still missing


And Zest, how can you not mention Zest? Protoss fueled Korea for the win! I would expect Inno to sign up, he's the absolute king of team leagues, Nation Wars included.


Zest must have happened in the last hour. Wasn't confirmed when I checked :D
I would never forget the GOAT quarterfinalist

Should be easy, just make anyone who breaks normal public match code of conduct aka. balance whines during a tournament match not eligible for voting.

Having balance whining during a tournament as a reason to disqualify a player would be utterly stupid. This idea that everyone needs to stay silent, politically correct and as faceless as possible needs to finally die.

I feel like there's a step or 2 between staying "silent. politically correct and as faceless as possible" and typing "protoss is op" in all-chat in the middle of a game.

I feel like TL's moderation has conditioned everyone here to think that balance whining is the worst sin possible.

Racist slurs? Homophobia? Threats? Bullying? Yeah, let's ban people for that. The odd "protoss op" chant should be perfectly acceptable.

It would be acceptable if Protoss were op, actually. Balance whining isn't necessarily bad, there are times when things go horribly wrong; constantly, mindlessly whining is extremely annoying.

Banning players from tournaments because they balance whined would be a questionable decision.

I'd appreciate if you didn't chalk up my own appreciation of basic respect towards your opponent to being brainwashed by a discussion board.

Look, of course it's not about balance whine. Hell it doesn't even have to be about respect. And it's certainly not about everyone having to be a nice little clone sitting down and shutting up. It's about having a basic requirement that the participants take the tournament seriously. Obviously not needed for 99% of the players, but then you have that one guy who just has to be a special snowflake at any cost and pulls a whole bunch of people down with him.

Freedom of speech freedom of expressing yourself u wot m8 can't even take a teeny little insult lulw bla bla bla. Ok fine, but is it really all that cool when you have one guy put there 100% by trolls, totally ruining the chances of an entire country?

Of course with Avilo it begins with balance whine and ends literally in the court house for serious irl harassment so I guess nobody seriously doubts whether he's unfit for tournament participation. But then its hard to ban someone for outside factors. So, just make basic respect in in-game chat a requirement as in any big tournament, and problem solved. Not 1 other participant will have any problem with that. And it's hardly going to turn humanity into a race of faceless puppets. People can still have at each other in the post-game interviews, on Twitter, forums etc., to their heart's extent.

And if there's a better solution then I'm all for it. As long as they prevent a whole team getting dragged down by one person's narcissistic personality disorder, I'm fine with whatever.

Yeah, so you proposed an oddly specific rule in order to get rid of a specific player, that is so mature and fair! You have it completely backwards - banning a guy for IRL harrasing people makes complete sense and banning for "outside factors" is no harder than banning for ingame chat. This is not a court of law, the organisers can set the rules in whatever way they want, hell if they want, they can just say "no avilo" and the guy has absolutely no recourse against that.

I hope Poseidon plays and does the team interviews again. That guy is hilarious. I laughed so hard each time when that open pipe protruding from the wall in his room became visible again.
Stopped watching ESL content in 2022 when the company was acquired by Savvy Gaming Group. Also object to sponsorships by the U.S. Air Force. Thanks for the lively discussions about sportswashing. StarCraft II is not for me anymore.

He already signed up as italian last year (he lives in Italy after all).
I used to organize tournaments for ESL Italy and referee Go4SC2s, WCSs, and IEMs for ESL SC2.
