RSL/Tasteless can just wait a week or two and all of this will die down. They don't have to address any of it. Though I guess we'll probably end up at this conclusion either way if discussion is generated at the current rate, just a week behind schedule. | ||

Honey, I don't care about RSL. Or GSL for that matter. Literally no interest in it. So you can't even get that one right... | ||

 RSL Revival/Season 2 group play starts in 4 weeks , while qualifiers begin in 1 day already from now. Doesnt it feel like patreon money dragging? Second news are Clem and herO are both joining Serral, and declining participation in this event. Still saving sc2 ? or more players realise what type of event is that? | ||

Maybe they are taking a moral stand against the tournament, but then they'd have to explain why they specifically find this tournament more morally repugnant than Saudi Arabia's EWC tournament, and I don't think that's a route they can go down without twisting themselves in knots. I do like observing expert-level mental gymnastics though, so I'd love to see them try for my amusement. What I'm saying is that there's probably some other reason that has nothing to do with moral outrage. EDIT: One minute of investigation on Liquipedia has shown me that the group stages for RSL and Maestros of the Game clash with one another. Something something Occam's Razor.  | ||

There is some valid criticism of how the money ist distributed, but linking every little bit of information around this tournament to it being a scam is quite a stretch. There are many reasons for why players would decline - first and foremost, Clem is French so he is naturally must be taking off all August and maybe September if he feels like it. It's his Western European genes yearning for vacation after the most stressful time of the year for him. As for herO who knows? But it is not a lot of prize money on the line for him, so we should just let it go | ||

And Clem went straight from EWC into Krakow Lan with no problem at all, also he did play Liu Cup recently, also wasnt big of a deal. So whos wearing tinfoil hat now ? | ||

Players have avoided clashing tournaments since forever. Even if they can feasibly play two at once, they might not want to worry about doing so. Unless OP is going to bring some actual evidence, I'd suggest...  | ||

Da fk your talking about players avoiding clashes broh))) as maru and byun already signed for both rsl and maestro xD There is no reason to avoid for players at all, as their prizepool are minimal compared to what it was even 3-5 years ago , to skip anything without real reason. You just have no clue mate User was temp banned for this post. | ||

You just have no clue mate Where's your evidence that they're taking a moral stand against RSL though? EDIT: Just because some players are willing to do both doesn't mean that all players will be. Maru himself forfeited a spot in Bellum Gens Elite due to how close it was to GSL. Zoun played in both tournaments so it was obviously possible to do so. Are you going to claim that Maru thought Bellum Gens Elite was shady? | ||

Serral might just wanna chill out rolling around in the giant prize pot he just won? Who really knows? Hey it’s a pity for the spectacle of the tournament, but it gives some others a realistic shot at a bit more money. I mean that’s if Tasteless doesn’t blow the pot entirely on hookers and cocaine or whatever the next complaint is gonna be… | ||

To sum up, RSL is not a scam, as they clearly explained how much money will go to Reward Pool on their Patreon Page. Reward pool is not big, so less excitement from audience and maybe some players dropping because of this? Maybe, however still not scam. Just another A- or B-tier tornament, ran by famous streamers this time. /thread | ||

And Serral casually playing it, herO not signed for RSL aswell, while signed for french cup If you wouldn't be bias, you would bring all players , not just who you have interest in. 2v2 cup is sometihng else, not much players have fun playing it. | ||
