Captains

Alright we have our six captains! I'm nowhere good enough to pull off Rayne's intro of the captains so I'll just give them all to you.

- Anthem
- YTB
- slush
- halo
- Mooley
- phix

Format

The minimum player team size will be determined by captains following the draft, past seasons have all required at least 12v12. Captains and teams are all strongly encouraged to play with as many players as they have available, to include as many as possible.

We will continue with the two maps per week strategy and point system. Team will receive 2 points per map win, 1 point per map tie, and 0 points per map loss.

Matches are played Sundays at 10 ET. Scrims are scheduled for Tuesdays and Thursdays at 10 ET.

We will not make any changes to standoffs this season. Ideally captains will select maps that do not encourage turtling.

Anticheat measures are being developed in order to curtail the abuse of timescale and other cheats in competition. Always demo in case of accusations.

Phix?

wut
lolphix
do really no other people want to captain?

hasn't YTB captained the last like 4 tourneys in a row?
anthem just captained the last one and I think he captained another one while I wasn't around
same with slush

??
ytb captains because he doesn't want to see how low he would be drafted. plus he enjoys the "power" of being a captain (voting players/maps in). also likes sucking massive brandon cock.

anthem good captain until he votes his (and his bffs) maps into rotation. fuck you and your boyfriend rooster.

slush just enjoys winning. he can pick good players but if no one on his team can ACTUALLY lead, it's failboat. edit: idk wat i typed first time

I'm rooting for Phix this round. I think he has the balls and the brains to do big things. Go Phix!
The vote text was accidentally left in from the Season 8 template I used. My bad. Not votes have taken place.

Phix = ?
Phix is the guy who spends 90% of his pub time osniping.

Kudos to him for captaining but if he doesn't yet realize why I say his favorite tactic is completely idiotic, he's going to do really poorly without a strategist/leader on his team to play the role of captain for him.



I think there are a lot of subtleties that Halo might not be keen on quite yet, but I haven't seen him play outside of pubs. I feel like he's finally getting a good grasp of what it is to play his position well, but I don't know if he can make the proper adjustments as a captain yet.


Here's to the hope that those two prove me wrong. Best of luck to everyone in S9, especially our noble volunteers for the thankless task of captaining.

Yeah, I'm heavily invested in these draft tournaments I haven't taken part in for 6 seasons.

Draft signups close at 8PM EST today! Sign up now!
when did you make that mooley?!
Hey.

What are the minimum teamsizes?

Like hell we're playing 12 man.
9v9? captain's choice?
ppl rail to realize 10s or 12s turn into 7s and 8s quicky due to no shows and other issues, last 2 seasons when it was supposed to be 14+ we of course played 10 or 12s. This should be common sense. If you pick 12 ppl, roughly 7-8 will show consistently.
