Hey Blocktopia members, I was thinking that we could have a Starcraft II: WoL tournament in Multiplayer. I found out that people can get part of Starcraft II for free, which is ALL we need for a tournament.

Information:
1) Teams of 2 competing (brackets will be made when ALL teams are listed on this thread)
a) After the finals, the two winners will compete with one another

2) Rewards
a) Dota 2 for BOTH of the winners
b) Poker Night at the Inventory for the champion

We don't need a tournament, we all know ethical1337 would cream us all.
Say WHAAAAAAT? Its team of two anyways. avant your bro is calling you(we totally wouldn't be unstoppable or anything!)
Well I think avant and I would be too overpowered as a team since we actually play 2v2's a lot and are at least platinum level at it. We have even beat a master team(don't ask how we don't even know)

So I could play with anyone. I don't care about skill I will play with ANYONE who has the game for this. So hit me up. I don't know how I would decide who, maybe I let you guys pick my partner.

Also side note this doesn't have to be WOL you can use heart of the swarm as long as someone in your party has it. So if say I was in the party and just spectated then the match could be in HOTS. The only issue being then you have to play Terran. However if you are playing the free to play version and get spawned into WOL version you STILL can only play Terran so it wouldn't be a big issue.

So erm, before I start making teams, I still need the names of people who are 100% joining. If you feel like joining, join. You got nothing to lose, if anything I have something lose, 50$ worth of prizes :pP

why are you out for that? and if people prefer 1v1 we might want to do that.
Well I was unsure if I would actually be able to make it, and would rather not let a team-mate down.

Additionally, a randomized team consisting of experienced players playing against less so players might make it all a little one-sided. Plus early timing attacks are icky because WoL Ults are best unit and needs late game tech (oh hoho just kiddin').

hmm a 1v1 tourney might be more balanced to skill but it also kinda drastically favors those who have played more.
Maybe trying to match based on league placement. matching people with high league placements to lower league placements/no placement.(no avant you don't count since you just don't play 1v1)

Ah, right, 2v2.

I'm out ^-
why if there aren't enough people it'll be 1v1
Well if it does become 1v1, I will try to make it. But I would feel terrible abandoning a team mate :)

I won't be that good as I'm learning the grid hot-key setup, with base camera injects. Only get 100 apm atm.

100 apm is actually more than my average rey
vv Not related to tourney in any way please ignore vv
Oh, I thought you had more. Of course, apm is definitely not everything. I was getting 150 on my old 0 main hatch 9 natural 8 third setup, and although base camera injects are way faster, I just like my old setup more for droning. I'm just torn.
