I'm seriously sorry about the long, stupid delay for our next SC2 tournament. The last 6 months have been pretty good for the LoL and fighting games stuff at Arena, so SC2 took a bit of a back seat when we planned to do one near the end of the year... but noone was playing. Now HotS is back and looking pretty good so we're happy to do one again.
For real, if we get like 30+ players this will be a huge success and I can promise more in the future.
Date: Saturday, April 27, tournament will start at midday, doors should be open from ~10am
Location: Arena Internet Cafe, 264-268 Rundle Street, Adelaide SA 5000 (in between Al Fresco and Piatto)
Entry fee: $15 (spectating is free of course)
There are no league restrictions, players of any skill can join.
The tournament will be played on the South East Asian server.
Tournament format: Double Elimination, all Best of 3 (2x Bo3 for grand final)
The map pool will be: Akilon Wastes, Bel'Shir Vestige LE, Neo Planet S LE, Newkirk Precinct, Whirlwind LE
If you can find a good argument for having 7 maps (Daybreak and Star Station) we can think about it.
Each player will veto one map from the map pool and then flip a coin/rock paper scissor/decide amongst themselves for first map choice. Loser of each game picks the next map.
Other prizes will be hardware, and possibly random giveaways, etc
Other information
Players will be allowed to bring their own equipment (mouse, mousepad, keyboard, headset etc). The computers are more than capable of running StarCraft II at it's highest settings. For those that have been before, this time we will only be using the back room.
There will be at least 20 PCs dedicated to running the tournament, players will need to report their results immediately once they are finished and they will be told to either pack up for someone else to use the PC or to stay to play another game. We are aiming for as little downtime as possible, so this is imperative to the smooth running of the tournament.
