April Beginner Tournament (21 - April - 2018)

Postby Hesus » Wed 28 Mar, 2018 10:42 am

Hello everyone,

It has been a long war but the gits did good.

Korn is pleased, the Emperor shed a tear and our noobs proved their metal!

And with that cheesy line over, I present you the results:

First Place: OceansAteAlaska

Second Place: Sev

Third Place: Easiest AI vs Dororz (still to be decided)

AND

Big shout out for all the contestants!
I know it was tiring or boring at some points, but you guys powered through!
GG!

And huge thanks to the streamers and co-streamers for showcasing this tourney and sticking with us till the end!
Get some sleep, take you naps and see you in the next lobby.


Due to popular(ish) demand I was thinking of hosting a beginner/noob tournament that I will try to closely manage in order to provide a good tourney experience for my fellow noobs.

The tournament will be DOW Elite 1 v 1 with a best of 3 round progression and a best of 5 finals.
And keeping up with the tradition I will also host a loser bracket on the side as the rounds progress.

THE DATE!

After getting some feedback from Discord and consulting my own schedule more closely I came to chose the date:

21 - April - 2018

THE TIME!

Well here it gets a bit tricky since I want to fit in the noobs from around the world.
So I dabbled with this lovely app and came up with this time spread:
https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/ ... 166&p5=136

Time Spread Summary:
Australia -> 22 - April on a Sunday morning 0600 (get your coffee lads)
North America -> 21 - April on a Saturday 1300 - 1600 (decent hours)
Europe -> 21 - April on a Saturday night 2100 - 2300 (coffee?)

AND THE SKILL LEVEL!

Less then 500 hours. May go up to 700 if I can tell that a person is genuine beginner and not just faking it for some Internet fame/pleasure.

Want to throw down?

Fantastic, here's what you have to do in order to sign up:
- Post your steam name on this thread along with 3 commanders you want to play in the tournament;
- Then add me on steam! My profile should be linked to the one in the forum, but here's my profile just to be sure: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198053733093

Example:
Player: Hesus
Heroes: Apothecary, Warboss, Lord General


I really want to make some good match ups from the start. I want you to feel exhausted after a tourney match, hoping the next one will be easier.
SO PLEASE DON'T FORGET TO ADD ME ON STEAM!

Oh, and if anyone wants to stream this event be my guest.

I will be managing this tournament on the Elite Mod Proving Grounds - Discord channel: https://discord.gg/WzFEM9M

NOW YA GITZ! SHOW ME YA WAAAGH FACE!

I might be around to stream this this evening if people would like that.

And if they don't, I'll do it anyway. Heh heh.
The internal battery has run dry, the game can now be played. However, clock based events will no longer occur.

Thanks for the tourney, was quite fun to cast, and a nice surprise to have another beginners event.

Well done to all the players, you proved to be great pawns in the great game.
