In 2015 we launched a new incentive and rewards program - Participation $'s
"We are going to pay YOU to play in 2015!! $'s and Sponsorship. All SEA Players"

As all OSC tournaments for 2015 have now concluded, we're happy to announce the winners!

1st $300+ 2016 LAN Sponsorship
-

PSiArc with 119 Tournaments played!

2nd $200
-

Azure with 112 Tournaments played!

3rd $100
-

EnDerr with 79 Tournaments played!

4/5th $50 each

DemiLove with 75 Tournaments played!

Their combined total is 460 tournaments, for an average of 92!
(In total the OSC League consisted of 189 Partnered Tournaments in 2015!)

+ [Top 20 Players] +

Participation plans for 2016

We are thinking of altering the participation structure to be divided into 2 half seasons (Jan-end of June, July-end of year). Aiming for same prize pool of $700, but split will be $350/$350, and we'll scrap the LAN Sponsorship. Prizepool may increase.

Breaking the system down into 2 'seasons', should refresh the 2nd half of the year, and if you come in late 'season 1', or take time away from the game for a while, you can still go hard and earn $'s in 'season 2'

Additionally we will look at adjusting the value of participation points, to try and find the right balance between results + participation, and encourage other methods of acquiring points such as challenge matches. Change will likely see participation worth 2.5 points per tournament in 2016. Still very helpful points added up across the year!

You did it, Andy! It was touch and go there for a while but I'm glad you gave it your all near the end when it mattered the most.

Congratulations to Varun! I always believed in you.

And the other guys I guess.

Also does 2016 lan sponsorship mean PsiArc to ACL?

Sponsorship is for tournament entry, not flights + accom. If he can get there, we'll pay for him to play!
Applies to any offline/LAN tournament around the world.

= 7 without leifengs and with a suspension hope to improve on my numbers next year

I agree with ridding of the LAN sponsorship idea as such things are usually covered by teams.

At too many points in the last 2 months I'd be playing on like 0 sleep.. this whole thing rekt me so hard. So I eventually just said "quality > quantity" and gave up. T_T

Congrats to you though, and everyone else! So many tournaments played all year by everyone! Well done.

woo hoo! I'm so happy about this.
I went from a guy on the edge of retiring the game into a most active player this year, and that's all thanks to the SEA community and its tournaments, which motivated me to keep playing!
