Wut ?

this is completly wrong. rofl
you have to watch the number of games and the ladder points to see the quality of the opponents.


Actually it's right, try thinking about it :D
Number of games is a factor also, but my main point is that rating is the only reliable factor..

My point is I would rather pick someone with 200-100 than someone with 250-150.

How was that your point when you didn't mention it at all in your original post and instead said that it was more impressive to see some form of win rate, where win rate is totally reliant on who you're playing and how often

I've never seen somebody whine so much publicly about being included. If you're as good as you say you are, recognition will come eventually... you don't need to self promote yourself and complain in every event thread about "WHAAAAAAAAAAA INCLUDE ME MY ELO IS 1700" ... seriously it's annoying as hell to read.

It took me almost a year to take over leadership of USA B (in BW) and I got it because I worked consistently to show I deserved it. People who are already established top players like Machine, Louder, LzGaMeR, etc... didn't post pictures of their ladder rank and ask to be included in tournaments, they eventually got recognized and once they did their inclusion in events became self perpetuating.

Stop whining.

Team LiquidUnderneath it all they were really quite nice. They just got screwed up. Mostly by stuff that wasn't entirely their fault.

This is not a "usa A team / Canadian A team" or anything official, just 6 of the top players invited for a showmatch. The game is way too new to really say "these are the top 6". I just tried to pick what I think are the best 6, and I probably will miss some deserving players, it's bound to happen. The game is still just beginning, there are no prizes, and in the future if you are that good, you will get invited to the bigger and bigger events as the game grows. This is a for fun event with the single purpose of being entertaining. Just be excited that this game has more tournaments/events in beta than most games have in retail, not to mention the best pool of commentators (and community site, tl.net)

nostalgia itt.

I participated in one of the first team canada vs team usa tournament. It was right when brood war was released. IIRC, team Canada was X'ds~Fallen(me, as T), X'ds~Grrrr(P) and kain-the-feared(Z). Team USA was Maynard(Z), Pillars(P) and D22-soso(T).

Canada went 3-6, winning all the mirror matches and losing everything else

done with nostalgia~

Good luck to team Canada! drop me a pm if you need another Canadian player.
oh hay

May I suggest Winners League format for this tournament? A lot of these players are very good, but I believe certain players are better in certain matchups - and since it looks like the event will be held as a showmatch, I think WL will be the best choice in format for the highest quality games.

And thx for the support guys =) I would like to participate as well hehe... watch out, sheth

I was also wondering why Idra isn't on the roster.
Scheduling/time zone problems seem most likely but he's definitely a top USA player.

btw some of the players may not be able to make it at certain times, so there might be changes even after the list is completed.
