[deL]

Add details to the OP. It's really hard to get information about this it seems like it will be a big mess.

[Aean(:]

Its going to be big, but how many competitive people are there going to be there :/ the only ones i know are the ones that attend the cityhunter LAN's, eg. TA members and some others.

[deL]

iaguz and YoonYJ are from Sydney. nGenBenji and Light should be there. Bunch of TA guys too - that should round out the top8 if there are no inter-state players.

[inFeZa]

Who's Team Immunity? Also sound's great, too bad i can't make it up to Sydney at that time. GL to everyone participating.

Me in top 8? del


Seriously tho, I'm chasing this up because $20,000 is more money than a MLG, and you'd want to be making alot of noise if you're hosting such a massive tourney.

I'll post something if I find anything out.

Email response from the TO:

Hi Ben,

the only prizes we can announce so far are:

1v1 – 1st Place = $6000
4v4 – 1st place = $7000
Best regards,

Yoyo

That sort of money for 4v4 is pretty retarded, seems like they're just throwing money out there with little thought behind it. The website for this is very 1 dimensional as well, I'm pretty skeptical.

True, but you can't really ignore the tourney, considering there's almost zero travel for us :P

I'm guessing someone has an ESPORTS budget but doesn't actually have a clue about SC2.

[Imposta]

Wow. Time to start playing some 4s!

[inFeZa]

WOW 4v4 for 7k!?!? let the CHEEESE BEGIN!

[WakingLife]

Map pool is the old ladder map pool, blistering sands, DQ and steppes hurray....... on the plus side shakuras is up there again

"Touma said that Australia's most celebrated clan, Team Immunity, has entered the teams competition."

Looks like is not just sc2, those guys play cs if im not wrong.

So who wants to make a 4v4 team?

[pRoTimber]

So true!!

With that huge of an esports budget, you could run multiple tournaments (think 5 huge 5k events like the WD PSI we had or 2 massive 10k-15k events), stretch qualifying rounds for the finals over a longer time period rather then just two dates, hype it much further by announcing confirmed foreign guests pros who are flying down to play with interviews etc and well plently of other stuff which would give exposure to the sponsors so they get a good return on their investment and continue to pour money in the esports scene.

well just my thoughts anyway

[YJY]

holy shit. and i thought i had incentive before. time to dance
