If only it was EU *shrug*

Let's hope maps turn out to be as good as their changelogs present them. GL to eveyone, you might become famous (or in case of @phi, famous-er, i'unno).

 

[Jusa]

Oh jeez, I hope Kalinka plays even half decent. It's only been pugged like twice on the 6s format D:

 

[Micnax]

Go Bagel go!

We are testing some maps out today on mixchamp, including Kalinka. If you want to come watch stv or sit in on comms, we are playing it right now.

 

[Hosomi]

This seems like it'd be interesting. It's difficult to get a map tested at a higher level

Also, I hope Bagel goes well, Yrrzy deserves some regonition

 

[Pathfind]

Damn I seriously missed this?

 

[Lain]

Really really puzzled as to why there are weird alpha test maps and first map maps in a $500 competition but eh.. whatever.
Does anyone have Vods for the matches? Really interested in Cardinal, Baegal and Kalinka though.

 

[Yrr]

cash prize was incentive to get good teams to test the maps in a serious environment

as for vods:
Warmfront, Drudgery, Logjam
Drudgery, Bagel
Bagel, Kalinka, Cardinal, Warmfront

some vods are missing and the logjam and second drudgery game are cut off
you dont get to see teams forfeiting because they didnt understand or want to play the payload map
