!

its a nice idea, but where would you put purri for example, whos a q2 legend and tdm beast in ql :D

Hes a bit of an anomaly though. :)

I think DaHang is in a similar position.

dahank 4 sur3 q2 l3g3nd, dunn0 b0u7 tdm

Show me your tits

(.)(.)

I didn't realize you were asian

hitsu is short from hitsugaya

he played q2 tdm extensively, and anyone who saw him play with UFX could tell that hes high-skilled in ql tdm as well.

in fact, in a lineup for rapha, czm and cl0ck, DaHang seemed like the best tdm player to me.

sounds cool man.

sounds good but heres some suggestions anyway

-add q3 osp (or cpma)
-two maps for each game
-teams pick a game each and the other team picks the map for the opponents game pick
-for tiebreaker, team with highest net can choose if they want to pick the game or the map for the 3rd map (assuming this is bo3)


in terms of maps QL could then be two 'new' maps that weren't played in q3, so q3 could have say dm6 and dm7 as the mapchoices. im sure q2 and qw could find a second map to add too :)

The reason why he said QW, Q2 and QL is because they can all be played for free. Thats why he didn't say q3 OSP.

precisely

didn't even read that part ;DD anyway q3 can be played for 'free' too but sure i get your point

two maps per game thing still applies though

Should be fun to watch, but as a first attempt is going to be quite hard to organize (split communities), guaranteed one sided matches and that won't be as epic as games between experts.

With that said, what's best is to go step by step instead of being much ambitious at first otherwise goals are not achieved. Don't get me wrong the idea is great but the goal is to get things done. So, I think it should be one game at a time (at least at the beginning) and protecting outsiders from the most experienced hardcore players of their respective game, everyone having a chance and matches don't go 100 to 0. Then comes the second step, when players are used to all games the main plan can be fulfilled, with multiple games and split players in teams like the OP.

As for games, q3 (different map) and q4 should be there. They are what most current players are used to.

FFA was in one of the Dreamhacks too, even with prize sponsored by 2GD if I remember right.

omg I missed that.

Sounds like a interesting and fun idea :)
I would not even be against 2x maps / game and perhaps the low seed team (in the game) can pick what map they want. Not sure if it would make it more even or harder but just a suggestion.

My team would sign up for this for sure and I would prefer this option over draft as we have played all games together since the beginning.. But as always, if the majority wants something else I would support it.

Yeah, I think 2 maps would probably be the best choice. However, the main issue is probably getting the qw players to take part, they usually hate all other games. :)

Try.dat :D

If it was hard to get qw players for the 1on1 Tournament in this style I think it will be impossible for 4on4. There are only 20 teams in EQL this season and as the tdm modes are very different in Q2/QL compared to qw the interest probably won't be very high. :/

cool idea, but a complete nightmare to pull off and broadcast:) altough it can be done

4v4, starts 1v1, every 5 min you add a player. best. idea. ever.

yeah and u change maps during the game, like for ex u start ztn 1v1 for 5 min, then switch after 5 min to almost lost 2v2 tdm, then 3v3 ca on asylum, then 4v4 freezetag on dm6 then ffa

i suggest to add a kind of " map-pool " for each game, like q2dm1, q2dm3 and q2dm6 for q2, dreadful place, grim dung and campgrounds for ql etc.... but yeh, the idea is great.

A tournament like this should be played like a nations cup or something. So that Swedish team would be bps-purri-fox and DAG?

And the finns do milton-q2-player, ql-dude etc...
