All maps chosen by tournament coordinator will be taken from List A.

When applicable, players may choose a map from List A or List B.

With the consent of both players and a tournament coordinator, players may choose a non-listed map as long as it is tagged as featured or matchmaker, 1v1 and non-special.

Start positions are random unless an asymmetric map is chosen, in which case the player who did not choose the map has the option to choose their start position.

I'm in for either 1v1 or 2v2

4 coms gathered around a DRP with a GS fac in the background...
This is a lobster tournament isn't it?

I'm in for 1v1

I'm good for casting for the first 7 hours, but then I have an appointment to get to.

You can count me in, 1vs1 & 2vs2.

Just why 10 AM UTC???? Why not something like 4pm or 5pm?
Who benefits from this?



For those who dont know what time it is for them:

I'm totally down to wake up at 4 am for this. Count me in.

I'm down for a tournament

It would also be beneficial for me to have the tourney in the EU evening. Could we possibly move it? Maybe this'll lure in Anarchid as well.

I'm sure Australians can deal with it, we need to accomodate our new US playerbase :P

Well, Shadowfury sad he had 7 hours of time, how long do you expect this tournament to go?
