Liquid Pasture Community League

Congratulations to 草泥馬, the winners of the first season. Following a very dominant regular season, they took a very close 2-1 finals win over wbiPtePcnT. The second season is now ready to start and what better way to kick off the new year than to play some very exciting competitive dota?

I invite each and every individual on TL who plays dota 2 to sign up either as an individual or with a team for some great fun. This season will be sorted slightly by skill level, given the performances of the previous season along with general dota 2 mmr bracket information from new players. This will give the league a new formation of two separate skill differentiated divisions.

Both divisions will be split into pools of 8 teams which will compete in a round robin style bracket. The top 4 from each pool will then compete in a single elimination bracket Playoff (in the event of a single pool all 8 teams will make the playoff bracket).

Any prize? You will get a lot more team interest. That being said, I may be interested for fun/practice.

To be quite honest, this league is simply for people on teamliquid to have good captain's mode games... There may be a prize for next season, there may be a prize announced half way through this one... I'm not trying to buy any teams in through the event... Just want genuine interest for now and if it progresses to more, well that'll be a few seasons down the road. If anything, it'll be to make the playoffs more interesting, but nothing worth playing the entire season for (hence you need to be playing for other reasons regardless).

I can see this becoming something like TDA, where even if the skill level isn't that high, the entry requirement will keep out a lot of idiots.

I don't have 100 posts yet, so I guess i'll return when I do.

Steam ID: light_g0d - http://steamcommunity.com/id/ivzftw/
Microphone (y/n): Yes
Preferred Hero Type (doesn't mean you always have to play it): Nothing, I'll play anything.

I'd like to sign my team DHSF up.
The team consists of:
Ivz (Me)
Groendahl http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/profile.php?user=Groendahl
Hvidtiger http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/profile.php?user=Hvidtiger
Eviljun http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/profile.php?user=eviljun
CCC.AAA (Not known yet)

I do not have 100 posts nor' do any of the above. But I guess that some of the senior community members can say that I'm "legit"

My team was also the runner ups in the TL Open beating teams such as Woona Stuck and PotM Bottom.

Edit: You might want to clarify how to sign up your team, I just tried to do it obviously but I'm not sure if this is the right proceedure o.o

I'm not sure that this is a factor given that it'll be private games... Correct me if I'm wrong. Otherwise, games can be played on the best possible server for the given match.

I'll definitely tune in to watch this if its casted. I could give few common items for the winning team. ( Not a big price but still a small carrot to run after. )
