Greetings to all StarCraft 2 and team league enthusiasts! After a long break we are happy to announce new season of RSTL — the team league for everyone, from pro-teams to teams that are here just for fun. Since it’s our first season of Legacy of the Void, we’ve decided to update league format and rules, bringing some changes that we think you’ll like. So if you want to feel the spirit of teamwork, show what you"re made of, or maybe just have some fun, come join us at new season of RSTL!
Announcement, Rules, List of participants.
Schedule:
• End of registration and Registration fee: Before 5 May.
• First matches: since 10 May.
Brief instruction on "How do I participate in the league?":
1. Sign up at hdgame.net
2. Add your team’s profile at http://hdgame.net/tournaments/teams/ fill required information.
3. Ask your players to sign up as well, then ask them to send team join request. You can manage requests at team’s page.
4. Apply for participation at http://hdgame.net/tournaments/list/tournament/rstl-10/
5. Pay the registration fee (check payment details above).
6. If you have further questions or any suggestions, please contact league head admin Alizard (skype alizard7).
Changes:
1) All banned players were amnestied (black list is cleared). Blizzard’s anti-cheat system has been updated and some of the bans were expired too, so we decided to grant an amnesty to all players.
2) We have updated the website. Unfortunately, players and teams will have to sign up again. On the other hand, managers now can create teams by themselves.
3) Admin Warrion has left the team for Overwatch, he is now replaced by gSom (skype k_beregam).
4) New league format.
Pros of the new format:
+All of the players from line-up participate in the match.
+It takes less time to finish the match, with the exception being when all of the games are streamed.
+Each win grants +2 points. Every game is important now.
+Every player is now in equal condition.
+Lower divisions are now more balanced: you can’t simply win as a team by having one strong player at your side.
+All kill system will still be there in the playoffs! The principle is quite simple: the team must prove itself as a whole at stage 1, and after that it’s time for stage 2 (playoffs) with all that player management and tactical planning stuff.
