1v1 Tournament May 27th 2017

The time has come for a 1v1 tournament. Aquanim is coordinating this tournament - direct any questions/requests there.

The tournament is planned to take place at 10AM UTC, Saturday 27th May. Registration will be open up until 1 hour before the start time of the tournament.

Sign up and see more details in the thread!

Aetherian Void is likely not suitable for 1vs1.

Please use Obsidian 1.4 instead, it fixes issues with tree hitspheres raised by DeinFreund.

Consider using Red Comet 1.3 and TitanDuel 2 instead. These only have aesthetic changes.

The map pool definitely asks for unexpected outcomes, but I suppose that is the meaning of "short and sweet".

Thanks for organizing this tournament, I'd be glad to partake.

It's entirely possible that Aquanim would like you to arbitrate, but it's also possible that he wouldn't, or that he'd prefer using your volunteered time for something else.

Particularly in List A I tried to select at least some maps which have seen less 1v1 play recently because they weren't included in the MM pool, but which I wouldn't mind seeing some 1v1 played on.

Adding you to the list now.

I can use somebody to host rooms and keep another eye on things. Welcome aboard.

As far as I know, posting in the thread has been the most common procedure in the past. I don't really mind either way.

quote: When is the 4v4 tourney coming? :C

As far as I recall the last few tournaments have all been 1v1, that's true. I wouldn't mind seeing another 2v2 tournament but I'd prefer to play in it than to organise it :p

If you're after competitive 3v3 or 4v4 I think the best option is to get Clanwars going again.

That's a shame. I'll see about putting together a list of the most interesting games if you're looking for material later.

I got a decent internet connection and a mic, so I'll stream matches.

Yey, burn in a fire 5mbps internet (I think i had like .25mbps up lol)

You got 5mbps internet Qrow? Where do you live, wtf?
Even in Eastern Poland, the 4th world country, 50mbps is a standard for $15 a month.

In Finland, cheapest broadband is currently 10 Mbps Down / 1 Up, which is painful when uploading anything...

We might wanna move the tournament if that'd allow Shadowfury333 to cast it (and Anarchid to play). What do you think?
