You have a point here, I myself have + 7 gmt and can't watch all event live. But you can’t please everyone. I am glad for any tournaments, be it a weekend tournament or three months one (moa3 for example, in which not many Asian players participated either).
Two Asian teams were accepted, as many top European players denied, so it has nothing to do with players being from Asia. As I see it, if 16 teams were accepted we would have some one-sided games, I don’t want to say that these players are weak, maybe I just haven’t heard of them, but it seems...
I think 8 best teams were choosen, but it is crazy that such teams as Janik and CZ_Skull, poZ_edie and Fedex, [NaBs]Nick and [NaBs]Spaden, 8th Wonder and mentalist were denied, they could if not win Viper and Daut, at least sure give a good fight.
The problems are mostly related to team games, I play 1v1 and if a player is from Europe it works perfectly, with China and Australia there is lag, but it is because the distance too far, nothing can be done about it.
I looked today who signed up for the tournament and saw that more than 5 expert players did, some of them will not participate in qualifiers, maybe it is a good idea to extend qualifiers to 13 players, so 16 fight for 4 spots in the main tournament. Anyway I hope players from Vietnam won’t lag...
There should be new maps as well as new civs. I have been playing Kilimanjaro and Mountain Pass on hd version and I find they are great maps, would be great for a tournament on hd version.
