A big thank you to metal and padula for casting the first of many Hype Cups.

Congrats to PiG for coming 1st without dropping a map.

Big thank you again to all players who played in the cup, those that played will be awarded Hype Points for the invitational tournament in 4 weeks times.

All prizes have been paid immediately, prizes were posted as USD.

Some quick concerns:
- The next cup will have semis as bo3 with 2 vetos for each player, this will then break down the map pool to 3 maps, each player chooses their map for if they lose the first game, the remaining map is the first to be played.

- the same format will be used in the finals however each player will have only 1 veto, they then take it in turns to decide what map if they lose until 1 map remains.

- any player wish to play must sign themselves up, I will not accept other players to sign up for you unless its the manager, eg Chadmann signing up the Fray boys. Clan leaders that have been signing up for their players, I do apologise

For any other requests about future tournaments be sure to hit me up with your ideas, I would love to hear your advice on how the tournament could be run "better"

-Please Note-
The tournament start time is not up for discussion, unfortunately this is set due to my work schedule, so apologies to those that cant attend due to other commitments.

I don't see why every round can't be vetos..
Bo1 first round on a ******* horrid map (I hate Sejong playing as all races) leaves a lot of windows of opportunity closed for some people.

Set maps on Bo3 sets at least give a chance of map selection after a loss, but Bo1 just seems a bit brutal
