Hey all,

To try and promote SC2 show matches in Australia and our new Tt players, we are setting up something special.

Are you a relatively new player or unknown? Are you wanting to prove yourself to the SEA public by beating some of the best? Well we now have an answer for you! (Does this sound cheesy or what?).

I'll explain the concept in a few steps.

Step 1. Decide you want to challenge the best and become more known as a player
Step 2. Post in the 'Challenge thread' that you are ready to rumble (this thread will be made in the coming days)
Step 3. We will pick who the Tt player verses and also who the Tt player is
Step 4. Rock up at the given time and play your BO3/Get shoutcasted by Derek "Mr. eSports" Dox on the Tt eSPORTS twitch stream
Step 5. If you win you get either a Tt eSPORTS Challenger Keyboard OR a Tt eSPORTS ISURUS In-Ear headset

Where?
Challenge on these forums - Casting on www.twitch.tv/TteSPORTS
Played on the SEA server.

When?
Weekly! Every Monday night at 9pm AEDST GMT+11

Who?:
YOU against these guys;

Jared 'TtPiG' Krensel

Mark 'SQLTt.yang' Richardson

Alex 'SQLTt.Ninja' Smith

Nick 'HuT' Hutton

Andrew 'TASenSei' Charmichael

Hamish 'MekaTtKowi' Parker

(Inactive until 2012)

Who is keen??

EDIT: The challenge thread is up now! http://www.sc2sea.com/showthread.php?p=43373

(At this stage this is only available to people who reside in Aus/NZ, sorry for any confusion or annoyance this brings)

Any limitations on player skill?

**Dox** · Wed, 2nd-Nov-2011, 2:10 PM

Wouldn't be much of a showmatch if there was? :P

**Mayo** · Wed, 2nd-Nov-2011, 2:10 PM

At this stage no. We will be picking who plays the Tt players, as I said in the OP I want it to be the chance for unknown and players wanting to prove themselves to get a crack at taking down a Tt player.

I mean if tgun or Moonglade challenge, there isn't much point in calling it 'The Underdog' then

I hope that makes sense.

E: We have other show matches planned for that kind of stuff anyway, stay tuned!

How do you go about classifying who's an underdog vs those players?

cRSenSei · Wed, 2nd-Nov-2011, 2:12 PM

Step 1. Ok.
Step 2. I am ready to rumble.
Step 3. Any of the above names.
Step 4. Any time/date outside of work hours (mon-fri 830-530)
Step 5. Tt eSPORTS Challenger Keyboard <- choice.

**Dox** · Wed, 2nd-Nov-2011, 2:14 PM

Anyone who

Was on FXO or any other GSTL team (ST_KingKing, soulmanfou etc)
Is on a SEA Pro team eg Immunity, Arch MSI, Xeria, MITH, AZKorea?, Flash and Mineski
Anyone who has represented their country/region in a International competition

would be excluded, for a start anyway :P

its for guys like Lost, Sensei, Dippa, Riichard, Erasmus, Eldrid etc etc people who are close to the top but not quite yet, atleast that the impression I got from reading it

Nice Job Mayo

Forgetting Flash and Mineski

**Mayo** · Wed, 2nd-Nov-2011, 2:19 PM

An underdog is a not extremely well known player, they don't have sponsor backing, they haven't been overseas for gaming etc etc

Someone like KJHangers.
There are a ton of GM's out there that would love a crack and I'm sure there is a lot of Plat/Diamond/Masters too.
