holy shit, blake is commenting... now i really cannot lose!

[x5_Namakaye]

Because of my own incompetence, I'm going to give Exile 5 a warning for the situation tonight. This was by far the most stressful and messy situation so far this season and it was because I didn't follow up with our players. Obviously this will count against us in the event of a tie, so get them map wins boys!

[deth]

So now we're coming to the end of R1, all major HotS leagues for the year have concluded and most players have moved on to Lotv. Could we consider moving the league to LotV for Round 2 onwards?

I feel as though there would be a much wider foreigner audience to watch random SEA players play a fun LotV league than watch us flail around at a game most of us aren't practicing anymore.

We could make it a heap more fun in format and include an Archon mode match for the 3rd game of the series.

Just a thought, anywho.

[syfChadMann]

I totally agree with your points deth, but frenetic array have intentionally held off switching to LotV for this league. So it would give those that have made the switch a distinct advantage. Also the league will be finished before LotV launch and Adepts are broken.

That said, I'm all for discussion on this topic as I do agree it could very well improve the league views etc...

[syfRize]

+1 to switching to lotv.. even the people that "kept playing hots for the teamleague" are mixing in lotv.. it's a real bummer having to play such a shitty (in comparison) version of the game whilst lotv is right there, teasing us..

pls switch.. no one wants to play hots lmao
