thrag.9740 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 So glad that the community continues to step up and do these events, obviously the only formal event Anet will sponsor is pvp/esports. Thanks teapot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talindra.4958 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 heh.. i don't actually feel so bad with our dhuum run last week after watching this lol... did ben do something to dhuum recently? i blame it to ben (just kidding :P) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ok I Did It.2854 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 For those who didn't catch it last night, the finals are tonight, its a great watch, some serious skill being shown. It was kind of sad to hear that Anet didn't want in on this action, MTP had over 4k viewers alone last night, ( not to mention the viewers watching the dedicated streams who where raiding in the tournament ) normally GW2 Twitch is lucky to have a few hundred watching so yea. MTP should be given major props for organising this, it went so smooth last night, and that cannot be easy to get 8 guilds ready to go without any hassles, there was a lot of planning and dedication put into this event. Good luck to the guild raiding in the finals tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks teapot! That's funny because Anet supported their dungeon speedrun fiesta few years ago. I'm not sure about last raid tourney though.

Last time they posted SC benchmark thread on their FB page, the "community" went nuts about how anet promotes elitism for open world. The builds they posted werent intented for open world so these ppl were wrong. And yes these events draw alot of attention on twitch, more than any open world stream does and requires alot more work to put together. Also ppl should stop feeling like everything caters to them. Anet uploaded constantly cheesy tweets with player quotes and irrelevant friendship videos with open world guilds, you dont see me rage about those.

Still its unprofessional on anets part to not support such a big player driven event because its not the cup of tea of some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinceman.4572 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 As far as I know Anet is supporting this event by taking part in the prize pool. I think we can't expect more since GW2 is pretty much dead outside its own community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayra Lightbringer.2874 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 No, Teapot is sponsoring the price pool from his own gold. He said yesterday on the stream that he did not receive anything from Arenanet for this event, apart from the standard partnership program gems.

Vinceman.4572 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Ah okay, my bad then. Some weeks before it was stated that Anet would have a part in the prize pool. Sad to hear but not very surprising to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talindra.4958 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Will be nice to see some comments or feedback on bosses and pros/cons of how each team tackle them. eS and qT my favorite groups. SC dps are very strong. Although some hiccups but these are some solid players :) Seems like many ppl like wing2 :) it's also one of my favorite wings because of matthais. Wing 5 is one very nicely made wing but isn't one of my favorite I don't know why.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's lame but explains why GW2 doesn't exist in gaming media at all after original release. This single, player made tournament, would do more for the game than Anet marketing memes with friendships and esports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talindra.4958 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Come on guys.. it's no big deal if anet did or not supporting mtp on this tourney. It's fan made. We should celebrate and enjoy it instead. I personally isn't a big fan of mtp but do appreciate this tourney that he is hosting. Weldone and hope it will be not the last tourney. If anet support this in the future then that's great.. if not .. no big deal... I think the community will :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walhalla.5473 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Pretty good first day for the raid tournament, didn't expect qT to loose their first round but today there is gonna be the qT vs eS... again xD The mistake from NXS with the challenge mode was quite funny and after Teapot listed the wrong class ( base warrior banned instead of berserker ) the whole chat went ballistic when SC used Base Warrior on Deimos. And SC vs Meth and Faxes... didn't expect them to go that far, they were quite fast on Stronghold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ze Dos Cavalos.6132 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 qT got bad luck when they got w5, I mean the guild slow down a lot and didn't play much gw2 like before, so I'm not surprised they got problems in w5. I'm sure they trained a lot tho to prepare for the tourney but I'm not surprised they didn't go very far. SC vs US was good and we can see in Dhuum that SC dps is just superior. Looking forward to see MnF vs SC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
