Just a note for anyone competing who doesn't get casted but wants to be - flick me your replays and I'll try to get some replay casts up on YouTube

Hi,
Im new to this. Bronze terran here. A few questions, can we choose maps before the match or is it chosen for us? Can we veto certain maps if we are not confident with them?

Quick Comments

Asrathiel:

Yep what Chadmann said below! Hope to see you there :D

Usually first map for each round is predetermined and when you get to the rounds that are Best of 3 sets.. loser picks from the map pool - no veto's (After the predetermined map). But Idk exactly what the guys are doing here.. but that is the norm...

its good to expose yourself to maps your not familiar with and gain further experience on them!!

Hope you play on Saturday!
Good Luck! ^_^

League ranking has nothing to do with promotion, and your MMR hasn't reset.

If you get promoted to plat today, you would have still been promoted today if season 5 was still going.

If that happens, congratulations! And you can always enter the GPD Opens

If you sign up when you are gold, then are promoted in the few days before the tournament (and you let us know), we're generally happy for you to still play

stormblue · Thu, 16th-Feb-2012, 11:27 AM

@Asrathiel Just to let you know, I signed up based on my season 5 ranking =).

Billy Stevens · Thu, 16th-Feb-2012, 12:21 PM

Thanks to Suipr and his team of casters and admins for yet again an awesome tournament, was imo enjoyed by all!!
And thanks to all who played tonight, especially those from the lower leagues who made some awesome games

Quick Comments

AsylumofSouls:

Of course it was enjoyed by you :P

AsylumofSouls · Sun, 19th-Feb-2012, 6:59 AM

Congratulations once again go to FaDeMuss showing his protoss skills and going back to back in the weekly BSG!

FaDeMuss demonstrated some different play this week from last tournament, concentrating on building up a chargelot archon ball then overwhelming his opponents in every game leading up to the finals with a superior army, generally off two bases.

His opponent in the grand final was another zerg player this week; HGYsecurity playing a close fought ZvZ semi final against Borg to advance into the match.
The grand final set saw some variation out of FaDeMuss coming up against the strong zerg where he showed us his voidray/colossis play in game 2 then a one base all in to take the grand final 3 - 0 on Cloud Kingdom.

Congratulations to FaDeMuss and HGYsecurity who qualify for the BSGCup to be held on March 4th and a big thank you to all of the 64 players this week. I hope you all had a good time and Asrathiel and I look forward to seeing you again next week.

Thanks breadfan and Venom for the cast which can be found here. There are some sound issues plaguing the early games but the finals are all leveled and well worth a watch if you want to skip through to them.

Asrathiel · Sun, 19th-Feb-2012, 2:51 PM

Congratz to last night's winners

I had to leave slightly early as my smallest small person didn't go to sleep til 11.30

Hope to see everyone there again next week!

Bash · Sun, 19th-Feb-2012, 2:52 PM

wait... previous winners can play again? i'm so in for next week then!
