Qualifiers Information



Due to the overwhelming reception of the TLS, we have adjusted the Qualifiers schedule. This weekend we will be holding two qualifiers. Subsequent Qualifiers will be held on the weekends of the 19th and 26th. The games for this week's Qualifiers will be held:



Saturday, Jan 12 5:15pm GMT (GMT+00:00)

Sunday, Jan 13 5:15pm GMT (GMT+00:00)



Check-in for each Qualifier is at 16:00 GMT (+00:00) , and closes at 17:00 GMT (+00:00) on each day. Be sure to show up and be ready to play your matches!



As mentioned in the initial TLS announcement, there are 24 places attainable through 6 open qualifiers. 12 positions for the two finalists from each qualifier, and another 12 to those who earn their place through the points system.



We want our participants to give each qualifier everything they've got, so aside from the immediate glory and fame they'll receive finishing at first place, we've added another incentive - the first 5 qualifier champions will earn the right to choose which group they'll be slotted into.



Once the qualifying period is over and the 24 positions are filled, 18 contenders will be randomly divided into 6 groups. From there the first champion will decide which group he/she would like to play in, followed by the second champion, then the third until the 6th champion is slotted into the remaining group. Suffice to say it's a critical advantage that could make your journey through TLS that much easier.



Time is of the essence, fight your way to the top, secure your position and earn the power to choose.



Full rules and details can be found on the







Casters



The first Teamliquid Legacy Starleague will be cast by the accomplished pair of Sayle and Elegant. These two casters are mainstays of the foreign Brood War scene, having commentated events ranging from the ISLs and Gambit's Cups to their by now famous unofficial coverage of SPL.

Invites



These four players are being invited into the Round of 16 of the main tournament.



Sziky





Sziky on Liquipedia Widely considered the best foreign player, Sziky has an impressive list of accomplishments.

Since then, he has recorded ten first place finishes in Defiler tours and won ISL2 and ISL3. Sziky is known for his sharp mutalisk and zergling control and his meticulous late game management.



Michael





Michael on Liquipedia Known as gutshot on TL, Michael is loved for his entertaining stream where he cheeses in every way imaginable (and several ways unimaginable) against high level opponents. Michael is an extremely skilled player besides this and is more than capable of winning at any point in the game. While he is always near the top of anyone's list of best foreigners, Michael is still trying to score a major tournament win, having been eliminated 3-4 in the ISL3 round of 8 by Semih and 2-3 in the Gosucup finals by Pro7ect.



dOTY





dOTY on Liquipedia The German Protoss, known for his exemplary PvP and PvT, has earned recognition for his PvZ abilities when he took Sziky to a final ninth game in the ISL3, shattering popular expectations of a blowout. Doty has been active in team leagues such as Gambit's Cup, where he helped lead SJ to a third place finish. Recently, Doty has also become involved in the TL community, providing a high level first person stream with English commentary.



skzlime





skzlime on Liquipedia skzlime earned wide recognition in the foreign scene playing for Hungary in Nation Wars, often being favored as the ace over household names such as Sziky and Ace. Since then, the Terran player has been a fixture in Gambit's Cup, achieving a 6-3 record in Gambit's Cup 3 and earning sas a victory over LRM with an all-kill in the playoff finals. skzlime is known for his excellent factory play, making him extremely strong in TvP and TvT and adding an extra dimension to his already dangerous TvZ.

Do not register unless you have an iCCup Account (you can get one for free right here) and can play on the iCCup server.



Official iCCup Channels: op Legacy-1, op Legacy-2, op Legacy-3, op Legacy-4, op Legacy-5. You're not required to join these channels to find your opponent, but they will all have referees in them if you need to ask any questions.



iCCup Name Changes: If you have changed your iCCup name you need to let the system know! Be sure to check your account details as people have been disqualified from previous TL events due to incorrect information.



iCCup Chat Commands: A short list of useful commands to aid those who are new to iCCup navigate and communicate with players/staff/refs:



+ Show Spoiler + /Whois [name]

This command allows you look up if the person is online/offline, which channel or game they are in. E.g. /Whois Elegant



/W [name] [text]

If you need to privately message or get in direct contact with someone simply type in /W followed by their name and then the message. E.g. /w TLSPlayer15 Are you ready to play?

/Join [channel]

Allows you to join a channel. E.g. /Join op TSL

As you may have figured, this command prevents anyone from contacting you. Simply type in /DND followed by your quick note. E.g. /DND trying to qualify for TLS.

To turn off DND, simply type /DND again.



Note: Spoilers Remember, due to the nature of this tournament, games will be cast from replays. As a result, there is a potential for spoilers.

I would PM a administrator directly for this, as they might not see this comment. But tbh I don't think they would need one. It isn't open to the Chinese or Korean scene(this is because of the horrible connection problems in BW), and only TL members will play and/or watch it. And we all know English, so yeah. If there is a Chinese or Taiwanese market for watching this, then I may be wrong. I would PM a administrator directly for this, as they might not see this comment.
