MAP AND RULES
TENTATIVE Map List:
Somewhat updated maps:
Korhal Compound
Cloud Kingdom
Shattered Temple
Shakuras Plateau
Antiga Shipyard
GSL Daybreak
MLG Dual Sight
TENTATIVE Map Selection/Rules:
Each player veto’s a map until there is one map left. The first person to veto in each 1st match is the person who is on top of the bracket layout. The 2nd and 3rd match veto’s work the same as the first, but the first person to veto is the loser from the last match. So basically it's like losers take-out in basketball. Players can only veto one map at a time.
For the finals, each player can veto one map leaving 5 left. The player that veto’s first should be decided by a coin toss before the matches start. The player that wins the toss can either pass his veto and veto last, or veto first like a kickoff. And the map order for the finals should go according to the order stated above while noting that if a map is pooled, it will be skipped in the order.
****[UPDATED] Winner's bracket advantage/ loser's bracket penalty is as follows: the first place player from the loser's bracket meets the first player from the winners bracket in the grand finals and starts down 0-2 in a best of 5 series.****

Seems like that now, but I guarantee that once we get the prize pot higher and announce more official sponsors, it won't be a big deal

Woot! Stoked for another tournament at Odyssey! They are always a blast! If you don't believe me, do a forum search for Verizon SC2 Open and check out the action from the other one there should be a photo dump in there somewhere. Look forward to seeing you all there! Hit me up with any questions/concerns
|
They've had some pretty great SC2 tournaments =] This time around i'ma participate rather then spectate although i'll probably become a spectator after the first round =/ haha
|
shesh, i think 40 is kinda hefty i will probably go and support/watch, but who knows, i might end up competing.
edit: with the price change, i will almost forsure be competing now, thanks!

We have discussed the pricing for OG SC2 Open and we've decided to lower the price to $30, where $15 goes to the host (LAN Center) and $15 goes to the prize pot. This significantly lowers the amount of money for the potential prize pot (from admission fees), but allows players to enter in the tournament at a significantly lower price.
However, we are working with our sponsors to get the event prize pot at the highest possible amount. Again, please keep in mind that the previous SC2 tournament at Odyssey had a prize pot of almost $3,000.00.
Enjoy!

some of my friends aren't attending because the entrance fee is a little steep :/ you could probably count on itsgosu/x6mystik at the very least.
|
ya i remember mystik was here at the last tourney. I complemented him on his headset and cheered him on vs IdrA
|
sick lan. went to the last one in july was legit. try to make it if you can!
|
How does spectating work? Free?
|
I've been in contact with the organizer and he says spectating will be free but most likely limited depending on how packed it gets
|
|
|
The entrance fee is a little high for people like me who basically just feed the system. I have been to two LANs and enjoyed both of them, however price is definitely keeping me from this one.
|
Spectating will be free, but we'll have limited space.
@streetwise - unfortunately we can't make it any cheaper as the LAN center does have costs to cover for the event. Additionally, with the sponsor support that we are expecting to potentially receive (to support the prize pot), it will be a minimal factor for those who want to compete.
We'll have more updated information in due time.

Bumping for great justice! Super stoked for this LAN guys. Last one was epic. Tell your friends
