My name is WiZecraX and for the last 17 years, like most of you, I have been obsessed with the game of Starcraft.
Because of this obsession, for the last 15 months I have donated about $12,000 to the StarCraft Community. I did this by sponsoring things like Showmatches and Tournaments, donations to casters/streamers etc.
I owe so many things in my life to this game that I genuinely felt the urge to give back to a community that is arguably the oldest and most important in all of eSports.
WHEN LEGACY OF THE VOID LAUNCHES I WILL BE HOSTING AND SPONSORING A TOURNAMENT WITH A 1ST PLACE OF PRIZE OF $2,000.
Starting the week after BlizzCon, every other Thursday I will host a qualifying tournament for the final 16 player $2,000 bracket... the Winner will receive $50 and both the winner runner up will lock in a spot for the Finals.
There will be 2 Qualifiers in November, 2 in December, and 2 in January which will yield 12 players. The other 4 spots will be automatically given to the 4 Finalists from my Bracket of Beasts Tournament from last year... Petraeus, EGHuK, Arthur, and Gravity's Deemo...
The Finals will be held on Saturday February 13th, the week after The Super Bowl (for you American Football fans :D) ... The 12 Qualifiers and the 4 previous Finalists will play for the $2,000 top prize.
I will release more information as Legacy of the Void approaches and the Hype train officially pulls into the station.
There will be no sponsors, gimmicks or requirements on anyone's part; both viewer or player... hopefully just some killer StarCraft. If you have any questions or concerns feel free to reach out to me @WiZecraX ...
I look forward to seeing everyone at BlizzCon and can't wait to get all of this started...
Best Regards,
WiZecraX
