I would switch one match in particular if both plan to play, Shotgun vs. Jesk in round 1? If only Round 2 keeps master tag that seems kind of silly. Assuming Braviet is going to be replaced with someone else in the near future here is my bracket


1. u8t3io3p
2. GreenAgenda

3. 00Joe
4. Alf-Attack

5. 00Logan
6. Braviet

7. BHC-Jesk
8. 00Steve

9.  Player
10. Sepi

11. Startale
12. Mystical

13. Knitterhemd
14. Medivh

15. Shotgun
16. Yamon

Yamon.. joe.. greenagenda. Mystical.. none are or ever have been tier 1. .. or tier 2... maybe by today's "tier 2" standards

Gotta fill spots tho.

Just shows how much game is dying.. there will come a day when spb is the best war2 player alive... because all the other good players eventually will quit.

I could probably find this out by digging back into older threads but GreenAgenda being in a tier one tournament is a very mysterious thing to me

By most standards.. only 2 maybe 3 of these players would have ever been considered tier 1 until recently

@TK your such a cynic.

Who cares how war2 used to be. This isn't 2007 this is 2016, obviously this game won't have the same number of player that it once did. However we are constantly adding new players and old players are always coming back for some nostalgia.

As far as the bracket goes GA wants to play and believes he belongs in the tier 1 bracket. Why not give him a chance to see how well he will do. Its good to throw a few tier 2 players in the mix to let them practice against some tier 1s.

Why label it "tier 1" tournament of not even half the players are what most would consider tier 1..
