--------------------------------------------------------------

This will be very similar to the Top 200 KOTH that thundertoss has done in the past, only with a little twist this time (HotS Beta!). In future weeks I will probably be doing this with a co-caster (possibly thundertoss), but I've decided to go ahead and get started on some HotS content early since not much is currently going around.

(The date and consistency of this KOTH is still in discussion. This will be a consistent weekly thing, but the day is still to be decided.)

When:

Thursday December 27th, 2012 @ 5:00PM PST / 8:00PM EST

Where:

http://twitch.tv/GoPrOmise / NA Server / *NEW* Channel: top200koth

Format / Rules:

Best of 1's , winner continues until they lose. This will be open to all HotS grand master players and a few selected master's players (non GM players are chosen by discretion and based on skill).

The players will be chosen in order, meaning this is not going to be a list (the reason for this is to diversify game play and match ups and to also highlight player story lines.

Prizes:

$50 - for first person to get 5 wins in a row.
$10 - for dethrone (defeating someone who has 5+ wins)


Caster:

sounds awesome, although i question the skill level of many hots GM's (since it was so easy to get into, I know several plat-diamond level players in hots gm)

looking forward to both playing and watching exciting strats on stream
Thats "Grand-Master" SMURF to you.....

The top 200 KOTH has been my favorite event for a long time, glad to see it still around/coming back. Is ascend still around as well?

I tend to agree that there are a good amount of people that were placed into GM early in the season just because they had earlier beta access. Even though this is still in its "beta", as long as you feel confident playing against the other top 200 people in GM (which are mostly professional players on teams), then go for it. If it REALLY comes down to it, I will end up choosing people's names I recognize or maybe even base it off of win/loss ratio.

You should invite Abomb. He's a really good player and he was top 5 GM.

I was in GM this season (and each one before this on different accounts) but dropped from inactivity over the holidays; can I still play? Please PM me your response.
