Sky League Group Assignment & Update (3/22 & 3/29 @ 4pm EDT / 8pm UTC)

<< < (7/9) > >>

Puppy Fur:
Every group had a troublesome time I think. But I can only say for sure that I did. And Muse team getting to fight a team that wasn't used to practicing together without even signing up seems unfair. That was my thought process. It's supposed to be a challenge to be in Sky League. Not easy if you sign up late...

All opinions are of my own unless listed otherwise. :3 The group I was in was a huge challenge and that's what I like about competitive. That's what it should be.

Edit: The more fights the more challenging it gets. Every additional fight is more risk. The less fights your in or easier the match? Less risk.

This last week Muse got played in to a no show, they were not signed up and ended up pub stomping inexperienced teams. This isn't about hard seeds its about rules being followed.

Except that's not what a pubstomp is. Yes, the teams were new, and we probably expected them to drop out, but they were still teams, afaik captains on skype with each other etc.

I really fail to see the big deal. Yeah, general rules were probably bent a little, but still only two teams made it out the group stages, and it's not like a previous team that lost got back in. So much butthurt about something that pretty much impacts you... zero amount.

Mr. Ace Rimmer:
Imagine, I would like to request that you show a little respect to members of my team please. If you can't then please show a little professional courtesy by not commenting. To insinuate players in my clan are butt hurt over what they view as a genuine grievance, thus suggesting they should keep their mouths shut is highly disrespectful and unprofessional.

I could say the same to you and your teammates berating the tournament organization repeatedly.

really?

I understand completely why some players are unhappy with this events constant changes and so forth.
It´s not just overwatch who are unhappy with this, I have had to tell my own team why all these changes have happened, and though they were unhappy i talked them into playing, this lead to several confusing things happening.

First off we signed up for a double elimination league, but that was changed and we said ok, it´s probaly because of the cesport/leto split, we just wanted to play since sunday rumble etc. are cancelled untill after this event.

the second thing that annoyed my teammates was that fiasco managed to sub for csr, forgetting the substitution rule, unfortunately this is our own mistake, and Nidh played one hell of a game with me leading us into seed 1 of group C. - but I still feel that this substitution rule needs to go away in future events.

then it struck me last sunday when we were paired vs the mandarins. Why is a seed 1 from both C and D paired against eachother? while seed 2 from the 5 team group is getting the free pass from week 0 and are seeded together with other seed 1 teams? this confuses me a lot, but I can see that the system doesnt allow for changes to this. the double elimination would have been the better option here.

please just take the critique we give. A lot of us are tired of changes in the competitive scene and we would just like to play without having to deal with last minute changes, rulebending or anything that seems unfair to other teams.
