Update:
Stim to the Win Playoffs - Thread & Schedule:
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=375584




Hello everyone!

We are proud to announce the Stim to the Win Tournament!
An Invite-Tournament especially dedicated to the Terran players and fans
among you guys!


But what is the Stim to the Win Tournament?


Let us explain it: Tired of seeing ZvZ in every tournament? We are, too!
That's why we brought this cup to life! The special part about the SttW
Tournament is the amount of Terrans we invited.

In numbers: 24(!) out of 32 players in total. That's right; we invited
24 Terrans, 4 Protoss and 4 Zergs, so that we can finally see
some Terran games again.
The cup will be separated into a group stage and a grid stage.



The Group Stage:

Group Lineups:

+ Show Spoiler +
Group 1
ForGG, Strelok,DBS, Stephano

Group 2
BratOK, Satiini, Heromarine, ret

Group 3
Kas, Naama, Turuk, Nerchio

Group 4
GoOdy, Jimpo, Tarson, XlorD

Group 5
Happy, beastyqt, kaup, Grubby

Group 6
LucifroN, Fuzer, Merz, MaNa

Group 7
ClouD, DieStar, Olajuwon, White-Ra

Group 8
KrasS, Sjow, funkay, HasuObs





We will start with the group stage on the 6th of September at 08.00
PM CEST next Thursday with Group 1
. Group 2 will be playing on the
next day, September 7th at 05.00 PM CEST. Dennis 'TaKe' Gehlen,
Bastian 'SaltTheWound' Brouwers and Sivano 'NarutO' Bovo will be your
hosts
for the complete tournament. The tournament will be casted in
German.



After the group stage is done, the grid stage will start with the l6
remaining players in a single elimination mode. There's no schedule yet
for the Grid-Stage, but we will keep you guys informed, of course!



We also managed to set up a total prize-pool of $1,800, which is
pretty nifty for an online-event. The money will be divided as listed below:


1. $1,000
2. $500
3 $300



So get your “GO TERRAN” foam fingers ready and don't forget to tune in
on the 6th of September at 08.00 PM CEST on the upcoming Thursday
at www.TaKeTV.net!


And last but not least, we wanted to thank our sponsors for their
support. Without them, the tournament wouldn't be possible!

Haha, wow. I love the idea as recent qualifiers have been rather 1 sided. If there are a Z/P Z/Z or Z/P finals I'll be laughing until I cry. Thanks for this, should be good. It's funny that people are coming out of the woodwork as actually liking the GOMTvT months after viewing the alternative.

It's more that people like diversity, which we don't see when one race is hogging spots.

With that being said, I wouldn't be surprised by a Z/P or Z/Z finals. Not because of a racial imbalance, but because they invited some really good Zergs and Protoss. Only a few of the terrans on this list are really good enough to be favored over many of the Z/Ps.

So funny, Take always has great ideas and just goes with it :D. I'll definately watch it, great invites for the non terran part of the lineup too, especially Stephano and Nerchio are scary as can be.

I say leave terrans to go out in peace.
If this fails how far are you willing to stretch this?
30/32 terrans? enforced close positions? forbid tier 3?

I think it's easy to call nerchio-stephano finals tbh. Of course it won't happen everytime, but if someone seriously expects one specific terran in final he's delusional. There's just no terran in lineup that is on same level as the two zergs.
