Hi guys!
As you all know the mini clan war for Sunday has been cancelled. Our benevolent leader incomplete has suggested we have a little internal tournament instead!
I think it's a great idea, and as the least competitive player I've offered to organise it. It will be a fun and informal tournament for all abilities and feel free to invite any friends from outside the clan!
In terms of format, I was thinking round Robin in smaller groups. Best of 3 groups of 4 ideally, if it gets bigger I can adjust this slightly.
Although I recommend the current RAW map pool as a starting point, if you and your opponent agree on any other map, feel free to play it. No strict rules as long as both sides are happy.
This will be running from 5pm CET and be organised from the op ReV chat!
If you or a friend would like to play, just drop me a message with name and race here, on discord or on battlenet to let me know! (SkilfulQuail#2444)

First I want to thank you again for doing ReV and Friends Mini Tournament! - Edition 1! <3 Second gratz to Narsil for coming out victorious!
Third I watched your replay vs. BaD and found it to be amazing in several ways. BaDs effort in scouting is... amusing to say least.
And finally I want to point out a few things that raised my attention when watching the replay:
1. The map choice was the first step to this win, knowing that Z always aims to be at least 1 base (mineral and gas) ahead of T and seeing Tarsonis Orbital denies easy (as in close) 2nd and 3rd for Zerg. I know the map choice was random and usually mappools won't have such ... noteworthy maps. But this example shows in an extreme way that map choices are a very strategical thing. 2. when you have less than 10 supply set ur CC's waypoint close to the minerals, grab ur scvs on the move and click minerals -> faster mining -> faster rax -> faster everything 3. Your little marine-medic-taskforces won u the game. 1 or 2 days before you were only sitting in your base, afraid of moving out. I know its hard at this skilllevel to add a little aggression to your play, I myself am often too passive in PvZ as its the MU I'm least confident in... BUT moving out, forces your opponent to deal with it, so you force him to pay attention, apm and often enough minerals and gas. Imho by low level players, attention is the most underestimated ressource in RTS. 4. ur queueing up 9 marines in 2 rax at some point... just saying 5. Your Wraith tech was the game decider I feel. Not sure if u anticipated guardians or just wanted them for harassment, either way is good cause doing one thing for a certain purpose is a good thing in itself, however being conscious about what additional purposes are covered would be even better since it makes your play more confident.
Gratz to this win, it's a fruit of your improvement and having fun with the game.
