WOW That guy that won was like light years ahead of the competition, for real Nightwolf... in a grand final he should have stayed whit Kung Lao to have a chance that matchup is horrible for Nightwolf. GGs I like that winners final video alot.

if anything then ukraine is leading in esports, they have one of the most successful cs 1.6 teams of all time which exposes their scene to many high prize LANs (ESL etc'), I wouldn't be surprised if Russia + Ukraine had bigger scene than US does.

Hi, I want to know TYM visitors opinion.
We have the best arena for holding esports tournaments, strong MK community.

What prizes we should have on the next tournament in order to attract players from Western Europe and the USA ?

Writing sums like 1000000$ is not welcome. ;)
 
Im amazed, 3/4 of contestants can't punish laos teleports...
In as much as we want to say Lao is broken it must be noted that he has still got some good recovery on that spin. And once you don't anticipate it so you can dash in right after it comes out, there is no way you are punishing it. I am sure you don't punish every single Lao spin that comes out 'cos if the opponents mix up game is good enough, you'll be caught one or two times and will make you block longer that you want as such not letting go of the block early enough to punish the Lao spin. But it can be fully punished if anticipated right. Just my 2 cents

prize money is a must, no ones expecting to win a fortune but just enough to cover the trip and then some is all people really ask for.

pretty much enough that it feels worth competing.
