World Cup 3: Individual player prizes


Recommended Posts

Hi guys!

 

Long story short, in this thread we will be announcing the best player performances in each tier and few additional prizes for various reasons which will be described later.

 

The prizes are as follow:

 

Regular tier prize: 1.5m + Best [tier] signature

MVP title: award will be announced once captains will finish selecting

Specials: 500k a piece

gbwead: shame (quite literally)

 

Please keep in mind that those prizes are outside of the donation pool, the money which will be used for prizes is donated by @MathewMat.

 

Not making this any longer let's get into it:

 

Best OU: CHUCKunso (5-0)

The only player with 5 OU games played, all won. Nothing much else to be said here, this choice was obvious because no other player noted such a performance in OU.

 

Best UU: SweeTforU (3-0)

UU was the toughest choice for us to pick. Very few people even played 4 games, so we took the people who scored 3-0 (KokenoCastro, Sweet, aftershocker) and took under consideration, who was defeated. Sweet has managed to beat gbwead, EpicVerde and UmbraMol, all of them being highly decorated and recognizable people, additionally gbwead and Umbra put decent performance in the tier, suffering the loss from only Sweet.

 

Best NU: Kriliin (6-0)

Pls no more 3h matches

 

Best SMOU: LLLLiolae (6-0)

We had to take a closer look because Huargensy was 5-0 in SMOU as well. However, LLLLiolae had more demanding opponents, including Linken who ended up 4-2, while Huargensy was facing mostly people who didn't score a single win in the tier. Still- big shoutout to Huargensy for his amazing performance.

 

Best Doubles: Zigh (5-0)

More 5-0 players lo.

 

Best LC: YEYOxD (4-0)

It was either him or Hannahtaylor, both with the same record. Eventually we decided to pick Yeyo due to same reasons we followed while picking LLLLiolae and Sweet, while awarding Hannah in another cathegory :)

 

Breakout player: Hannahtaylor (5-1, 4-0 in LC)

Despite the fact that Hannah has been around for a while, it's during this world cup she has rose into a position of a 4-0 player in LC, proving to be someone to watch out for when seeing her name next to yours in the bracket.

 

 

Onto the special cathegories...

 

Hypest match award: NikhilR vs Starmind

If anyone would want to disagree or put any other WC match above this one when it comes to generated hype, he would have a very difficult task. Not only was this a super hyped match but also a game where both players gave an amazing performance. Each of the players will receive 500k.

 

Rematch award: Stelian

We know, that sometimes our decisions are difficult for players to accept. Yet, Stelian took the gauntlet and stood up once again to play a second UU match, showing amazing sportsmanship. This kind of behavior shows what kind of player Stelian really is, therefore we decided to award him with another 500k.

 

Shame award: gbwead

As much as he was a pain in the ass, his input in a lot of matters was invaluable, his "shame" meme will make a mark upon this World Cup and we believe that good old gb deserves a very specific prize for his work around this tournament.

Gb's prize is going to be a lvl 50, comp Garchomp OT zDaryl (pure OT) named SHAME.

 

 

MVP will be selected by the Captains in the upcoming few days. Prizes will be mailed out soon enough (hopefully tomorrow).

I'm actually 5-0, benched myself last week not knowing there were awards for regular season. iirc Im tied at wins/losses with another player

Ooh, I must've missed it. Too much excel for one day and all numbers and letter are becoming identical, I'll take a look into it but I doubt there will be any change tbh

I think it's really cool to make individual prizes but also not accurate since some pools were MUCH more disputed than others and each pool was kinda like a different competition on its own ! However all the players receiving a prize have been demonstrating amazing performances so it feels good to see them all be rewarded regardless of their team's results ^^

Kirito is a recognized and known player, who has been around for a while. Breakout player isn't about having a better record over someone.

Hannahtaylor is also being around for years. Not really an argument imo.

What Rys said above, also Hannah did an amazing progress during this WC, I've seen some of her LC matches and every single time she amazed me with her innovative teams, move sets, tactics and predictions plus she is an extraordinary person who trust people. If anyone deserves an Individual prize it's @hannahtaylor <3

isnt this award given to the best player in his debut season? because if that's the case, this is 1st kirito world cup, and he has a better score than hannah.

She wasn't playing competitively.

 

Some people will always find a reason to argue or complain even when it's our good will to hand over some prizes...

this isn't about complain, its just frustrating how some players make a great season and you host don't even acknowledge. Same thing happened with Guillex, he went 5-0 this season in dubs(same record than Zigh), and the only thing said to explain why Zigh won was "More 5-0 players lo."

This actually is complaining my dude. "oh wow hosts didn't acknowledge that there's someone else who is 5-0" is pretty much complaining about, well, what? You seek justice for your friend or what? You think we will change our decision?

 

The fact that someone isn't mentioned isn't disrespect or lack of acknowledgment so stop throwing wild accusations. In my eyes you're just one of many people who can't resist to take a jab at hosts for whatever reason they find.

 

The decision was made by us and we are not changing it. Hannah deserved this award in our eyes.
