Question 0o

by stormG_ • 5 Mar 2007, 23:45 • Journals
I got a question why does a team like impact or a-monkey always gets a direct invite cf. cpc2 & eurocup while they proved nothing.

Because of the names indeed

discuss plz & flame me with screens

Because it has some 'famous' players.
It's probably just because the cup admins want teams like that back, so they give them a direct invite to give them some motivation.

ok, you go make a team with 6 best players in the world, and dont let them prac much, and then tell them to beat idle..
▼
h3ll 5 Mar 2007, 23:52
that's what happening here imo, you can replace 'prac' with 'prove' and it would be the same :P

wow - beating topteams in a prac, they deserve their invite indeed.

triflip 6 Mar 2007, 09:50
well if the top teams can't even beat them in a pracc how are they going to do it in EC smth.

And why wouldn't you play at full strenght in a pracc, to lose your skills? or to let the opponent think you suck?

testing new tactics? trying out something you wouldnt do in an official?

well praccs are to become better and pracc tactics you've never used before or to work on your teamplay with "old" tactics.

and when you play an offi you play with your tactics which worked the best at praccs

they can pull it off...

give it a month and see

they showed they still have what it takes (aim), now they need to get the team play together
▼
stormG_ 6 Mar 2007, 00:08
I didn't say they couldn't i just think they should have to play a qualifier since they proved nothing at all.
Parent

Kiewan 6 Mar 2007, 00:23
well, these players aren't normal players, they achieved stuff in the past,

It's all thx to Mztik ...

Quote Quote: Mztik "Since abnormal monkies demise, Xpaz and tiigeri had been looking to rebuild a line up to be competitive in the following cups/LANs, I believe they have achieved a great mix of experienced and skilled players. We also felt that the average skill level in ET was too low therefore it would be necessary to raise that bar up"
