The deadline for the invitee list has come and gone as well. People on the invitee pending and maybe list will now be used as alternates for other invitees in the case that someone has to drop out. They will not be added to the bracket(s) until that happens.

And the comment about more respect being given to the players. It goes both ways, it takes a lot of work to get something of this magnitude together. Sponsors, players, streamers, casters, working out organization, schedules, creating threads, research, creating videos and banners, promotion, hundreds of PMs and emails, and the spending of money and multiple dozens of hours of work. Sometimes it feels like the participants forget these things. Yes I've dumped around 500 dollars of my personal finances into this tournament, over the course of software, prize pool contributions and paying for ads on facebook and elsewhere. So I apologize if I offend anyone but I am straight to the point, and I don't grovel. I do hope everyone has fun in this tournament and I do look forward to it a lot! I'm sure all of you do as well. EDIT: Brackets are created, just finalizing them before they are released. | ||

I noticed the prize pool is back down to 700 though, when previously it was 800. Is it safe to assume I missed a post somewhere about it? Or am I high and it was always 700? | ||

On another note, I was in the shower this morning dreaming of starcraft as I usually do, and it occured to me that Lucifron wasn't on the list of players invited. I suppose he isn't that well known in sc2, but he was a top dog in WC3 and i've seen some pretty impressive replays of him in sc2. I would like to suggest considering Lucifron for future micro/macro tournament invites. He tends to have some pretty creative play. | ||

Aye Lucrifron is a person we would like to have in future tournaments. In addition to Lucrifron we are looking to include more EG, Fnatic and other pro team members in future tourneys also, if they wish to join. | ||

Entire Bracket: + Show Spoiler + Please click the image for a full screen view. Seeding Information: Since this is going to inevitably come up, I'm going to do my best to answer it now. No matchups were done manually. Every matchup is a result of the following process. Players on the Invitee list were seeded based on their past performance in recognized tournaments and showmatches. Thank you Liquipedia II. The more wins you had and the better you placed, in general, the higher you were seeded. For example DIMAGA has seen great success and has the largest amount of tournament wins, to my knowledge of anyone, in the top tier. IdrA, in the second seed position, has consistently shown that he can win and maintain a top 3 position in many tournaments. Etc, etc, etc. Invitee list players fill positions 1-43 on the seed list. Players that signed up for the tournament were seeded based on their provided league/rating description. This was done in several categories. >500 Diamond, Diamond, <500 Diamond, >500 Platinum, Platinum, <500 Platinum, and etc on down the line to silver. These categories of players were then alphabetized. For example, every player in diamond with a rating of 500 or higher are seed 44-68 in alphabetical order. Players that only provided "Diamond" in their description or gave ~500 for their rating, were placed in positions 69-80. Etc, etc, etc, on down the line to Silver. The seed list was then implemented with what is known as a "traditional" seed. This means that in the first round the top seed is paired with the lowest seed, second highest seed is placed with second lowest and etc. This also ensures that top seeded players do not meet each other until later rounds. For example DIMAGA and IdrA, being 1 and 2 on the list, cannot meet each other until the grand finals or the third place match. This seeding method is almost identical to the one used in tennis tournaments such as Wimbledon.
