NVIDIA HotS Cup Bracket



The tournament will be played in a double-elimination grid-mode and the four high-seeds will advance to the second round by default.



Good games and brilliant tactics should be a standard with such an awesome line-up! Also GoOdy, ClouD and Delphi are at TaKe's place and will be playing live from there.




NVIDIA set up a prize-pool of $3.200 + material prizes to keep the players at a top motivation level!
And for the German guys, NVIDIA and www.ONE.de are offering you a variety of prizes, too – which will be raffled away during the tournament. All informations can be found on www.TaKeTV.net

[image loading]



The cast will be in German and starts Wed, 12th at 16.00 CEST // 10.00 EST // 16.00 PST and will be brought to you by Dennis 'TaKe' Gehlen, Bastian 'SaltTheWound' Brouwers, Christopher 'Okko' Mönig and Sivano 'NarutO' Bovo!
The Stream will start at 14.00 o'clock at Thursday and lasts as long as the tournament lasts.

So don't forget to tune in and enjoy one of the very first SC2 HotS Beta tournaments!

I love the idea and all the things TaKe is doing but IdrA top seed rather than DIMAGA ? I'll watch it anyway but it's just a question.

My thought top seeds were given from previous performance in NVIDIA Cups. Maybe Dimaga just didn't attend for them.

and PainUser and HD win the award for the first Hots tournament by 10 hours.... Still the player pool is nice.

And we will finally have a terran wining a tournament.

Hopefully there would be a english stream.

Well this looks way more fun than the pHD torunament (which is still great), but I feel sorry for the non-germans . What a great tournament, lineup and prize pool for a beta tournament, can't wait to watch it all .
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

This tournament will be great. I really like the casting of Take, Naruto, Salt and Okko. They are always funny and interesting to watch. Also, we get to see HOTS played in a competitive enviroment which is awesome as well.

The cast will be in German


Come on guys, throw up some english casters on another stream, even a restream, im sure you have dozens of people who would jump at the chance and viewership would increase many times over. Second HOTS tournament and has a lot of players such as IdrA that many people want to see that will not be in HD and Painuser's tournament, its a big deal, open the floodgates

German casting isn't very hard to unterstand as an american. every name is english and most of the verbs are english words that have been changed a bit for fitting in german grammer

I see no reason why Take should allow an english stream for his tournament. Obviously, I don´t know his business model and how he gets his ROI but to me, it wouldn´t make any sense to create an english stream.

If there would be an english stream, almost all or all non german-speakers would watch the english stream and his stream on TakeTV would lose viewers which is a bad thing. More viewers means more money through advertising and he can present good viewership numbers to his sponsors.

Also, I do not think that he´s losing viewers because the stream is German because a Tournament like this will have enough viewers and even a lot of non-german speaking people will watch it regardless of the language.

Why would you cast this in german...... Is there at least a secondary stream?

@ the guy above me: Well, why would the sponsors care if the viewer numbers are divided into two different streams? No problem in having the same advertisements in both of them.

I speak german, but I absolutely do not enjoy watching streams in it.

I don't think Take should use an english secondary stream, I'd rather wish that for tournaments like this or S2tW he would invite for example Kaelaris or Hasuobs or Socke to his place. With an english caster take is totally capable of co-casting in english. Even Naruto and Take could do it I bet, look at the Ministry of Win people.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

He could let someone stream on his B-Stream with his sponsors and take all (or most) of the advertisement money.
I bet a lot of upcoming casters would be excited for the opportunity alone to cast such a high-profile tournament - without earning anything.
