UnFreeZe Super League 2023, First Leg

[redrum]

Hello , i confirm that i can play for DT in case the matches's times are going to be at night ( after 8pm server host location's time) .

Hi. Add me on diskord. redrumczech. Thx

[adminless]

ok, I'll register that and add you to the league then so hopefully we're a even number. I'll update the calendar now but I can already tell you that you start against immortal this Thursday 21:00 CET so let me know if that works for your team or not. btw from that list I assume that then you're not playing for DT, is that right?

[redrum]

no, Im not playing.

This took a nice turn, wow

[adminless]

yes it finally turned out the whole second sample with six participant teams in full. only disappointing (and hard to understand) the Теам Приде absence as said. ok, I just updated before the super league resume and calendar so check it out and let me know if there's some mistake or something otherwise, this time, yes, that should be the definitive thing. for the rest I got today community-ilm confirmed and virtually set already so that's all good and immortal-diablo I just announce before initially scheduled for the Thursday so waiting to hear from immortal and diablo about that. as for the other fight of the week, oko-ass, I haven't heard any further updates/developments so by now I assume that then the Tuesday it won't happen and we'll have to look for another date and try to work it out.

I talked with Cthulhu about it, but it seems like no date next week fits us both!

well given the case I think that it could be delayed for the sort term (i.e. next week) but in such case then you'll start accumulating pending fights which is a bad thing for both of you (i.e. that's only going to make it harder to meet those fights later on for everyone). in any case what I think that you can start doing by now is picking up two from q3dm8, storm3tourney1, pro-nodm9, phantq3dm1_rev, pro-q3tourney7, bloodcovenant, pro-dcmap7, charon3dm9 for the second game as to at least leave the fight maps done. ok, then stay in touch and if something changes let me know.

[redrum]

I understand I said tommorow I will not play, but can you add me to DT team if that is possible? Im only one who know /was in turney / how things going around and I dont think Edver si prepare for whole communication, team gathering before match and so on.

I understand it is important know all players for turney sign-up in advance, buy Im not Miroslav or Kf with great skills who can make some big difference or impact.

I can say 3 players already confirmed to me Thursday 21.00 game time ,with me it could be 4, and waiting for 3 statement.

[adminless]

sure that's not a big deal as you're saying so I'll note you now, it seems like the most reasonable (that's why I was asking/surprised in fact). ok, don't worry that I understand, I don't get involved in any teams stuff (beyond necessary) but if you want I can also assist with the maps. for example I'd suggest phantq3dm1_rev and charon3dm9 as picks for the second game of the opening (incoming) fight for your team. sounds good let me know then, immortal haven't confirmed yet either but it seems like it might work out for them as well so if you both confirm that later on we can leave that set as well.

btw that people has been asking about the maps pick procedure for this season, here you have it break it down in words as well:

1. the away team select two from q3dm8, storm3tourney1, pro-nodm9, phantq3dm1_rev, pro-q3tourney7, bloodcovenant, pro-dcmap7, charon3dm9 for the second game of the fight (ex. bloodcovenant, phantq3dm1_rev)
2. the home team blocks one from those (ex. bloodcovenant hence making phantq3dm1_rev the second map)
3. the home team picks two maps from the third tier (bal3dm3, 7++, teddm1, goldleaf, 13excave_b1, focal_p132, cpm4a, 13hell) that haven't been picked already taking in consideration overlaps (ex. 7++, teddm1)
4. the home team picks two maps from the first tier (hub3tourney1, q3dm7, 6++ or pro-q3dm6, overkill, reqdm5, pro-q3tourney2, q3dm14, pro-q3dm13) that haven't been picked already after taking in consideration overlaps (ex. hub3tourney1, reqdm5 at this point you can neither pick q3dm7 nor 6++/pro-q3dm6 since bloodcovenant and 7++ have already been picked)
5. the away team blocks one from each of those picks (ex. they block teddm1 hance making the third tier pick 7++ and reqdm5 hence making the other pick hub3tourney1)
6. then the home team ultimately decides if they prefer the first or the third tier map first (ex. they chose the third first)
7. the maps are anounced (ex. 7++, phantq3dm1_rev, hub3tourney in this case)

that basically results in the following card that I believe that it's a lot better understood (or at least how I do it):

• Tier 2 (away): bloodcovenant (-), phantq3dm1_rev
• Tier 3 (home): 7++, teddm1 (-)
• Tier 1 (home): hub3tourney1, reqdm5 (-)
• maps: 7++, phantq3dm1_rev, hub3tourney1

simply put to make it more varied so the whole thing doesn't get played over always the same 7-8 maps all the time as well as to better accommodate the home-away double leg format and get rid of the tie-breakers the map pool instead of being global for the entire fight is divided per games so each game is chosen from a different pool where the away team picks the second map from the second tier and the home team the rest always taking in consideration the preference at the time of making the choices (i.e. the away team as well as the lower tier picks have preference here). that's the reasoning (and the big picture basically) I used to come up with that variation. you have that "properly" (to some extend, as said, that's better exemplified than worded) noted on the super league thread but just for reference here you have as well noted the three separate tiers from where the maps for each game are picked:

1. Tier 1: hub3tourney1, q3dm7, 6++ or pro-q3dm6, overkill, reqdm5, pro-q3tourney2, q3dm14, pro-q3dm13
2. Tier 2: q3dm8, storm3tourney1, pro-nodm9, phantq3dm1_rev, pro-q3tourney7, bloodcovenant, pro-dcmap7, charon3dm9
3. Tier 3: bal3dm3, 7++, teddm1, goldleaf, 13excave_b1, focal_p132, cpm4a, 13hell

I meant 'this week', but you probably understood that already

[adminless]

yes, I hope you meant this week otherwise we would have a serious problem. as said, I guess that by now we'll just set it and then we'll talk about the date so for that first I need your team to pick two maps from q3dm8, storm3tourney1, pro-nodm9, phantq3dm1_rev, pro-q3tourney7, bloodcovenant, pro-dcmap7, charon3dm9 for the second game as wrote there to then forward that to oKo so the procedure can continue then when you know about that let me know.

[redrum]

Thank you. I can confirm Thursday 21.00 for DT. Its Dream team.

[adminless]

great news then waiting to hear from immortal if they confirm the Thursday as well. as said, go thinking what you want to do with the maps, if you want to go by the suggested phantq3dm1_rev, charon3dm9 or if you instead you prefer to chose something else from q3dm8, storm3tourney1, pro-nodm9, phantq3dm1_rev, pro-q3tourney7, bloodcovenant, pro-dcmap7, charon3dm9 for your game. I need to know by tomorrow so let me know and stay tuned for the rest of the choices. I'll keep this updated.

[adminless]

@redrum with all due respect I don't think the name "Dream Team" fits you at the time of writing. I know, it's more of a joke and humor to lightly it up than anything however I don't think that's gonna work out in the context here therefor such name is not approved to be registered for your team and in the meantime I'll continue to address you as Diablo Team (i.e. Team Devil, "los diablos", the devils) until you wanna come out with something else. immortal just confirmed now the Thursday 21:00 for your opening fight of the season then that means that will be the date and basically I just need your picks now for the second game (second tier: q3dm8, storm3tourney1, pro-nodm9, phantq3dm1_rev, pro-q3tourney7, bloodcovenant, pro-dcmap7, charon3dm9) today before 21:00 CET or I'll just go with the suggested ones (and I'll do the same for the rest of the picks) so let me know.

@walnut same, we're at Tuesday already, the initially planned date for your opening fight btw, and I still haven't heard any picks from your team so same if by the next 24 hours I haven't heard what two maps your team wants to pick against oKo from q3dm8, storm3tourney1, pro-nodm9, phantq3dm1_rev, pro-q3tourney7, bloodcovenant, pro-dcmap7, charon3dm9 for the second game I'll just pick that myself and proceed to do the same with the rest of the choices (i.e. blocks in this case).

ok, great news then that means that we're virtually all set for this week matches to kick off the season. both community-ilm and immortal-diablo fights are almost all set (just waiting for some final choices) and unfortunately it appears like the oko-ass fight is gonna to have to be delayed then let's see if this night I introduce the next weeks fights to start considering hopefully this time finally in proper time so please stay tuned.
