Map Version/Author Notes:
+ Show Spoiler +
MLG is the same version as the GSL versions of the Blizzard maps they use in GSL/GSTL : The bottom of the ramps cannot be walled off with 2 3x3 buildings and you can not spawn close ground positions.
For Typhon Peaks, just use the version uploaded by Blizzard.
For Typhon Peaks, just use the version uploaded by Blizzard.
Format
[Bo7] GSTL / Winner's League
Best of 7
1) Both teams will announce their player rosters [Character.Code.Race]. The lower seeded team will present their roster first.
2) Both teams will pick their first player without knowing the opponent's choice. To do this, follow the steps:
1. Coordinator of the higher seeded team (the team above the other in the Challonge! brackets) will create the game.
2. The Coordinator of the higher seeded team will then have his first player join the game. If the Coordinator will play first, do not have another teammate join yet.
3. When ready, the Coordinator will let the opponent team's Coordinator know, and the opponent team's Coordinator will send in his first player.
4. The first player of each team in the game (with the exception of the Host Coordinator if he is not playing) will be the players to play in the Set 1.
If there is a conflict, then you can resort to whisper/PM in SC2 your first player, and we will announce the players to both teams and that will allow you to start your Match.
Yoshi Kirishima - Yoshi.855
Zalien - STAxis.550
3) The loser of the previous set is out for the rest of the Match. The winner stays in until he is defeated, of which he will also be out for the rest of the Match.
4) The first team to run out of players or lose 4 sets will lose the Team Match.
Players may change race between Matches, but not between Sets.
The winner of the previous set will host the map.
All observers must be spectators except for HSSTL Referees.
Each spectator is allowed only if both coordinators from both teams agree.
If one of the players types "lag", or requests observers to leave, then everyone except the Referees are required to leave immediately. If a spectator on the opposite team remains in the game after 10 game seconds, the spectator's team may be subject to an automatic forfeit for that Set.
Playoffs
Brackets; the top two teams with the highest matches in each group will advance, with a total of 24 teams in the playoffs out of ~71. Single Elimination, Bo7. Finals will be Bo9.
More details to come. Each match will take place each saturday like in the group stages; the playoffs will start right after round 5 of the group stages (1 round of each group stage round per week, then the next week playoffs start, so there is 1 match every week until the last saturday of June)
Casting
As always, if you want to cast, you're welcome! Anyone can cast at least once, regardless of skill. Only when we feel your casting does not meet our standards will be not "allow" you to cast next time.
Please PM me if you want to cast, with the following template (omit text in brackets):
