Race Wars 2014

In 2012, the Zergs dominated and crushed the Terrans and the Protoss.
Long overdue... it is time for another round of Race Wars...

When?
21-22nd June Weekend most likely

Format?
BO9 All-kill

What do we need?
We need Captains! We need YOU!! The captain will be responsible to form a 10-12 player team and managing them.
If you think you are interested and responsible to be one of the captains, indicate in this thread in the following format :

• ign.race.league
• Why you should be chosen to be captain

Please indicate your interest below in this thread and a poll will be conducted on 1 June (Sunday morning) to decide on who the captain for each race will be.

Cause I've got pretty extensive experience captaining clan wars and people in ETL overall, also I watched a lot of GSTL and like 99% of the time pick the same player the coach picks.

Also I am currently Rank 19 out of 2000ish people in BW Liquibets, until last week was top 500 in SC2 liquibets (out of 3000ish) and have a consistently high SEAbet score.

Why i should be captain??? I have experience leading teams to victory and am willing to put in the work to see a team operates smoothly and without issue.

Also i'm a big of a Terran fanatic as anyone!

Reason: Because he's the only none diamond terran player

[SLCN.Petrify]

Petrify / Zerg / GM

I should be captain because I'm a top tier zerg, who acts as captain to one of the best Australian teams, and my main role is identifying new talent. Also I have a tonne of spare time now that my uni is done for the semester. And I'll offer free coaching to anyone zerg's in the race war

Plus it would be nice leading a team to trash any team that includes Pezz.

Yes, this thread can double up as a resource for the captains when they have to pick players for their teams later.

Will captain Team Pocasso aka Team ToR aka Team Randomo for 500 dogecoins. No I don't need a reason to captaino this team. Acknowledge as a race !@#$%!@#$%!@#

Will also captain Team Terrano if offered more but highly unlikely that would happen. If the team were to consist of 10-12 Terrans I think I'd end up as a player.

I feel like I am friends with a lot of the zergs in our region and get along with all of them. This would allow me to communicate and understand how they're feeling and what they want and when and if I should play them.

I think I have a pretty good grasp on the play styles of a lot of our would be opponents and which zergs would match up best against them. I also personally really enjoy the strategy inside of team leagues and feel like ongoing team leagues rarely show the depth that a one time event like this can.

I also managed aLt's team during SEACL where we took first without dropping a series. I've personally never participated in race wars, being a bit of a scrublord, but I am very keen to lead the Zerg race to victory in 2014!

I had a discussion with Redemption earlier about this as well. After discussion and considering the different factors such as player pool, number of sets and implementation etc etc, I decided to just stick to the 3 main races for this Race Wars.

We could possibly have a RvR Tourney later which would allow more flexibility etc and hey gives an excuse for another tourney and more fun times

Hype hype hype, I've edited the formatting for the games section so it looks nicer now. Adopted from GSL Race War Liquipedia hurray.

http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft...Race_Wars_2014

In case anyone is wondering what is the change, you can now see the map and less importantly, the country of the players for the map. Also there's a useless countdown thing when it's happening tomorrow, and the team names and score are beside each other now, instead of one on top of the other in the previous version.

The games were all really good games and not as one sided as the results suggested.

Would highly recommend watching the VODs

Elusory flew to the gold on Habitation Station.
Heartz vs Iaguz had a most interesting PvT where for 20 minutes both were barely mining peacefully even on 2 bases!
Fighto and Iaguz had a crazy base trade on Merry Go Round.
And more!

Yeah... it be certainly interesting to watch.

Random wouldn't be any much hard to be included, just more games. Only allow people who plays Random (People who are already in T or Z or P teams, are not allowed to join Team Random). Those who have 1 main race, but want to play as random can join Team Random (they won't be allowed to join any T or Z or P teams). So just pure new Random Players (which random plays don't miss out on) to be included in Race Wars.
