Once upon a time there was a Starcraft 2 Nerd name WoLF. This Nerd is the Leader of a Youtube community called Dominion Gaming TV. After having some fun with Starcraft 2 he decided it was time to host a tournament. This was a 5 man / Cup with the prize of itunes vouchers. Since then this Starcraft 2 Nerd has grown a bit an made some connections.
Laidies and Gentlemen Dominion Gaming Presents

Details you ask well let me get this show on the Road
HOLY CASTING BATMAN
So for each group i have arranged a night for it to be cast by one of the many talented Casters of SEA
Streaming will happen for the next 3 Fridays and Sunday with different casters for each day and maybe some return casters if i don't get enough.

Sunday the 10th Caster TBD ( Back up WoLF from replay on Wednesday) Casting Semi Finals 3rd Place and Grand Finals
What?
Dual Tournament format.
Best of 3.
- The 4 players of each group are split into two pairs and play each other. In this case 1 vs 4 and 2 vs 3
- The winners of these matches will then face each other in the Winner’s match.
- The victor places first in the group and advances to the Ro8.
- The losers of the initial matches face each other in the Loser’s match.
- The loser places fourth in the group and will be Eliminated from the DGSL
- The loser of the Winner’s match and the winner of the Loser’s match will face each other in a fifth match.
- The winner gets second place in the group and advances to the Ro8.
- The loser places third in the group and is Eliminated from the DGSL
The DGSL #1 is a GSL ( Coincidental name i swear ) Format where we will have 4 groups of 4 players to make a 16 man tournament.
Now the tournaments players will consist of 4 chosen individuals from key teams in the BSG Community.
Each group will consist of 1 player from each of the 4 teams to make 1 group the same for the other groups will happen.
The games will be cast from replays with special guest casters each week on the Dominion Gaming Twitch.
This means like in the GMC that was recently played the players will have a week to play their groups games and then submit them to myself who will distribute them as necessary to casters for the cast to happen at a TBD time. ( may vary each week ( and no that doesn't mean you will have less time to do your games.))
Once the groups have been played out then it will go into a single elimination Bracket Ro8 which will more then likely be a live finals or will be from replay either way ^ is whats happening
Upper Bracket Sneak 0 vs 2 Harreh
Lower Bracket Teddy 0 vs 2 Narse
Winners Match (Advances) Harreh 2 vs 0 Narse
Losers Match (Eliminated) Sneak (Forfeited) 0 vs 2 Teddy
Redemption Match (Advances) Narse 2 vs 0 Teddy (Eliminated)
Group D
Upper Bracket - ThePandariine 2 vs 0 Slayer
Lower Bracket - WoLF 0 vs 2 Rakkanoth
Winners Match - (Advances) ThePandarine 2 vs 1 Rakkanoth
Losers Match - WoLF 2 vs 0 Slayer ( Eliminated)
Redemption Match - (Eliminated) WoLF 1 vs 2 Rakkanoth (Advances)
The first one is obvious mGG is easily the most recognizable clan at the moment in SC2 from this community. They are generally Well mannered people who like to have some friendly banter. mGG was without a doubt the first team the thought of when hosting this tourney.
Secondly i thought of AxS . This was due to knowing that they have an active group of players and i thought that it was time they got to shine on something a little bit different then the BSG Weekly. Thank AxS for joining us.
Third to mind was ToR. These guys have been around for a long time and not knowing that if they had the players or not i didn't think of them. But after asking the above teams reps. Well it was unanimous ToR was going to be Team the 3rd
Last but not least. This will be my first tourney since the inception of DGTV Sc2 it was clear from the start what level of play this tournament was going to be for and who would be involved.
so DGTV without any thought would play in the DGSL.
When?
the DGSL will commence on Monday the 14th of October and go on for 3-4 weeks depending on the progress of the players.
Players will have the week to play their games and the winner sending me the replays named and game number to be cast the following week
If you have any Questions please leave them in the comments below and i will get back to you ASAP
A special shout out to .....
Nemesis of mGG
Soul ( Knight ) of AxS
Dekid of ToR
for being very helpful in making this tourney happen.
I wish everyone the very best and hope to see some more friendly Banter insue in the coming weeks
GLHF and The Dominion of Gaming Wishes you all the best!!!!!!

Really loving this idea, WoLF, kudos to you!
It's great to see something this big for the BSG section of the community, and I'm sure it'll be very interesting to both see and watch!!
AxS to emerge victorious

ally look forward to seeing more of these over the course of the coming year, and I hope this becomes one of the sc2sea "things" like the BPD or BSG weekly tournaments (maybe not weekly, I guess maybe twice a year etc.), but still, it'd be great to bring some more longer term focus on BSG players, as opposed to, "grats on the win, come back next week!" sort of feeling from the weekly BSG :P

You will need to discuss this with your team manager if you are apart of one of the four clans in this tourny. if you aren't then you will be unable to play.

The reserves that have been sent into me i have taken a special note. so if i need to swap you it can be done but for now you arn't in the tourrney so you arn't on the list
Is there a way to tag members in this forum?? the other forum i helped run you could do @personsname and it can highlight a thread for them to visit? Not sure... anywho....
Group C.... do you want to get together in PM's or on skype and sort out when is the best we can play our games with/against each other?? As you know i am in a way different time zone then others, but i can try to compensate where i can....
I guess Teddy you and i are up against each other first... what days are good for you/times? (starting monday of course)

Including
- Stream info for the next 2-3 weeks
-Player change due to inactivity for group A and C
with Pinelan and Braxeo being replaced by BoardingPear and Sneak respectivly
Also side note all results will be posted for that group after the cast for their group has been done
Can I confirm this is when the next group Is being casted? I'm confused ATM with AUS being silly and ending their DST early and whatnot so not sure about timezone differences anymore. If not, please correct me!!
A reply soon would be greatly appreciated because I'm heading to bed in a short while.
(Also everyone should use these countdowns more often, they're really useful)
Yeah it's taken me like fuckin 10 minutes to write jus this message in my bloody phone
