I'd join just for the heck of it but I still am a bit iffy on the format of the league being a bar for separation. Someone who's on a lower league in 1v1 might actually be of higher standard compared to a person whose league standing is actually higher due to the buildup of skills in 2v2, 3v3 or 4v4. All in all, I'm not going to be there to join the competition but all the best to the organizers. Good luck, have fun.

That's not entirely true, is it? I mean, you at the very least learn how to defend against multiple types of rushes (provided you actually improve and rank up the ladder), as well as micro and different builds and strategies. Albeit it requires less skill than 1v1, it still helps to give you some idea on basic build orders and whatnot. If this is a one-time tourney, I do agree it's a bit intimidating for new players to join as the skill level will be relatively big but I reckon there should be some kinda basic "grading" system, something like what IC cup used to do. Or maybe I'm just overthinking things again.. hahaha

I like where this is going and I'm all for the student community giving hype to an activity where violence is the star of the event.. haha
