Hello all.
Together with Resonance22, we are organising a 3v3 Bo5 showcase, to show off the new expansion, the balance changes, the new units and the new civs.
We are looking for interested players to form a team of 3 players (available to play 18-04gmt on a weekend later in January), who are willing to play on HD, (You don't need to own HD and the expansions, they shall be provided for you). As this is a showcase, we are looking for higher rated players, and will choose the 2 teams that give the best balance between high level players and a relatively even series.
Please include a link to each players steam profile.
Now I'm not an *****, most of you (with the exception of tatoh) don't give a **** about HD, but you will not just be playing for the entertainment of the community, there is a minimum prizepool of $150usd (split 90-60) as well as a copy of HD+expansions if you don't already own them (which is of varying value based your opinion of HD ).
