FeelsBadMan We played on East but you got better after that, I'd say last I recall your play was 2012 ish? You were at around B- then iirc. And yea, it's a tough spot. CPL has practically the same requirements as this league, and there are not enough people at that C+/B- level for us to have anything individual to us. | ||

That would be pretty sick to see what I played like in 2012 if I was B-... All I know is, this is the first time I've ever gotten past C- in the iccup ranking system. Cool to see you to recognize me from east somehow. Can't say I recall the name "Jealous" haha | ||

I got B- rank on ICCup, but that was ages ago; I doubt I'm even close to C now. | ||

You'd be qualified to play. Rather than it being "if you ever hit B-" it is players who would currently rate their skill as an under "B" ranks player. People need to use their best judgment and I'm being liberal with it. As for Demurity, I looked at his iccup account and don't really know. 80% C+ is pretty solid, and I'd be under the assumption someone with those stats has the ability to be B-. But yah, there seems to be a gap between the skill I'm allowing in Rookie Tournament and the skill needed to play in tournaments like Mixed Fights, Fight Club, Nation Wars, etc. The sort of lull between B- and A-. I'd let someone in who struggles to get B-, as imo the only difference between C ranks and finally hitting the esteemed "B-" is volume for most people who are "C" level. That is why I say I'm being liberal with it. I dunno how high Demurity can go but I wouldn't be opposed to him entering with an offrace. I'm not doing ICCup checks for every random name that gets entered though, nor am I looking through replays, so hopefully people have an idea of what imo is the cutoff for the tournament and can enter based on their best judgment and be respectful about it. | ||

I feel like I'm better now than before so that's why I had my doubts on how good I was back then. Cool to see you again Other names could be Caspela or BNU-Silence[EK] if that jogs your memory some more. Maybe on an old external somewhere but I can't say for sure ): It was so long ago, and I wasn't using autorep consistently. You beat me pretty consistently on Fighting Spirit and Python, probably ~70% win ratio even when I was C? Something like that. EDIT: And bwreplays.com seems to be down ): | ||

Just wanted to comment that I'm actually excited for this Rookie Teamleague as it looks pretty cool with how it's based on Afreeca Teamleague that's happening. I don't play BW anymore but I'm willing to cast some games if you're looking for volunteer casters on these matches, either live or replays. Good luck all participants!
