Are you a lower level player interested in getting better? Why not playing in a small tournament casted by a masters Zerg player dedicated to helping you become better?

Here's your chance to show your skill!

Live tonight at 8:00pm EST is a tournament on the NA server that offers the best players from bronze all the way to diamond a chance to compete and showcase their skill while having their games analyzed and casted live!

Sign up here: Here
Select games (1st round all the way until the finals) will be casted live from my stream.

Stream link: Here

Casting begins promptly at 8:00pm.

Really? Bronze to diamond? Im a borderline gold/ plat player and I got stomped by a diamond yesterday due to blizz's new "relaxed" matchmaking.

The end result? I lost 2 points and he gained 1 - stupid. Kinda like how this tournament is going to be when you pair bronze, silver, or even gold against a current diamond player...

The goal is to provide exposure for lower level players to higher level play. I think it'll be an awesome learning experience. Plus, I'll post all the casted games that I do as well!

Eh. The skill gap is too high. If low level players really want exposure to higher level play they should just join the Playhem daily and get stomped by a Masters or GM player.

I've seen some pretty amazing upsets from lower level players, but I agree that it could be a bit too high. I think next time I host a tournament I'll put a tighter set of restrictions on entering.

You'll just have to see what happens really Having bronze players will provide a baseline of what's bad gameplay while occassionlly highlighting the occassional good bronze strategy. If a bronze player does something good then you can tell your viewers, "Hey, this bronze player did this cool little strategy. If he can do it bad mechanics then it will be pretty easy to pick up." Also having bronze, silver, and gold players might create a few storylines for future tournaments. Next time you do this you might be able to notice that bronze player from last season is now gold, etc, and from there you can extrapolate on exactly what they did to improve.

It's an interesting idea.

+1.

I'm really excited to see how it turns out. I plan to do a lot of these, and would love to see these scenarios come to fruition.

I'm in, I'm here to win it and get insight on what others think of my strategy. If I don't get hella nervous, I'm going to the finals!
Play to learn, not to win.
