The ICCup crew is a bunch of people doing serious business on the internets. We always try to think of bigger and more stupid events every day. And we found one. A really good one.

We all know deep inside that not all races are equal. Protoss is so easy, a caveman can do. Zerg only needs the buttons U and A to win. Terran is the race for whiny bitches. We all know that, and we all try our best not to say that out loud. But today this changes. Every player hates one special match up, depending on his/her own race. It's time to embrace that hatred, it's time to give into the rage and get lost. It's time to unleash a shitstorm on the other races.

We plan to host the ultimate event, we want to find out which race is superior to all others. Which one is the race that is the top of evolution, which are the loser races. For that purpose we will host three wars, with three different teams. Team Protoss fights for Aiurs pride, Team Zerg serves the Overmind and Team Terran is going to kick some butt. Each team will have five members, which will face the other teams in an epic battle. The mode will be 1on1 in a best of three, just like a regular clan war.

If you want to be part of one team, you can write an application via PM to me. Be creative when you do so. Not everyone gets a spot. We don't care how skilled you are, skill doesn't matter in this issue. Write a poem, draw pictures, make videos or do a song. Write a story, say you're the chosen one, show replays how you own other races, dissing the players, sum up the sickest nerd rages (a useful talent toi have). I don't care. The best applications will be chosen by our jury, consisting of ICCup.09032010, ICCup.Sayle and ICCup.astet. Deadline for those applications will be Saturday, the 25th of December.

Remember that is an honour to join your team. Fight for your race! When the teams are chosen, we will set a date for the wars. Those will be casted by ICCup.Sayle.


Since some people didn't quite get the idea, the same thing again with easier words:
+ Show Spoiler +


* This is a fun event
* It follows a simple idea: SCBW has three races — Protoss, Terran and Zerg
* Each race gets a team. That means in Team Protoss only Protoss players are listed. And so on.
* Anyone can join such a team, but only if they write an application that explains why they think their race is the best, and why the other two races suck. Trashtalk is appreciated.
* The players with the best/funniest application get a spot in the team they applied for (e.g. Team Protoss)
* Applications can be simple texts, flames, pictures, whatever, we don't really care as long as they are funny
* Those teams will face the other teams in a «clan war»; 5 players for each team, mode: 1on1, best of three; date will be set when the teams are picked
* Deadline for the applications: 25th of December
* The wars will be casted by Sayle
* no one takes race imbalance discussions here serious
* step 1: write application, step 2: ???, step 3: profit!
* It's a simple «Christmas / Winter special»


May the best race win!

Is there an estimated date for the games to be played on? I can only play/apply if it's by the end of December.

No, a date is not set yet. We will have to talk to the teams first, and if all fails there is still the possibilty of a replay cast.

Agreed, but if I wanted to participate, I couldn't, because my internet connection can't handle more than 2 players. If I was to do this, I wouldn't be able to have my games streamed live..... Should that bar me from being able to play (assuming I apply for it)?

Before you ask - I know what the exact problem is; the ports are not forwarded properly. But I don't have the ability to change the settings on the router..... And, I can run SC2 perfectly with multiple people online, so it's not the actual internet connection that's the problem.

BTW, I love this idea.

but try to pick at least players of equal skill for each race =))) or, let's say, choose in such a way that the sum of skills of 5 players is equal for all three teams =))
