I’m a shitty 1k Global. Any balance or gameplay suggestions should be understood or taken as such.

Yes, actually going to put all the stuff in the OP as well, similar to how I structure the matchmaker thread.

the 3rd Showmatch, $100 Petric vs Blackheart BO7 on randomly generated, unexplored maps should happen this weekend, likely Saturday. I'll be confirming a precise time later today.

Series 3:

Players: Blackheart vs Petricpwnz

The next showmatch should be a 7 Game ShowMatch between Nexus and Tagada for $100, May 21st 14:00 UTC. It's intended to serve the dual purpose of showcasing the highest level of FAF in both gameplay (Nexus, Tagada) as well as mapping (Jip, biass, svenni). I'll ping people about the event on FAF Discord as we get closer to the date.

It will be getting casted by Swkoll and archsimkat.

Jip was gracious enough to put forth €100 euros to host a showmatch between Tagada and Nexus to promote Jip’s, Biass’, and Svenni’s maps. The date was already agreed upon by both Tagada and Nexus, and is set for May 21st, 14:00 UTC. Prizepool split is 60/40 and was agreed upon by both players. Casting will be by archsimkat and Swkoll on faflive.

Showmatch will be a 7 map series on the following map pool:

  • Autumn
  • Mauve
  • Gateway & Rose
  • Kaali
  • Moon
  • Aalhaven
  • Archsimkat’s Valley

Maps will be played in the order above. Each map is a bo1, with draws replayed. Faction picks are done with FTX’s system (both players submit 2 factions to play, and one faction to ban from the opponent). The player with more map wins at the conclusion of all maps is the winner of the showmatch.

Is it best of seven and ends when 1 player won 4 maps or are all 7 maps supposed to be played?

It's not a BO7 but a 7 game series.

I can play with Tex, but it need to have smth to we fight for

DONT BELIVE BH HE IS LIEING

I need to wait for a twitch payout to give me the current funds so I can distribute it out for the past matches. I can let you know what funds are available for a match after.

Feature request to @FtXCommando: can you not just link the FAF replay, but also a link to the twitch stream VOD + timestamp? I think most casual players would be more interested in the recorded cast.

Im Suprised that with the Showmatched you could jsut simple export the stream over to the faf youtube. this way would give more viewership on the faf account & promote these new showmatches. once on youtube you can add time stamps to each game but that couls be a littler spoiler for the matches

The show match is now in the past and in my opinion a success! At some point we had more than 100 viewers! Huge shoutout for the casters Archsimkat and Skwoll. And many thanks to the players Tagada and Nexus for participating.

Thanks for getting the replays for me

I'm up for a "Rust duel".
Both opponent must have less than 10 ladder game over the last 2 years.
I would prefer water based map (all size) and 10x10 maps, so it's still enjoyable to watch people struggle while not being complete trash gameplay.

Should use turins definition of rust instead

3 hours?

@thewheelie @Tagada

this is what rust looks like from my experience

Don’t mind but it’s also a really weird thing to uh sponsor. Like it’s paying people for the fact they are likely beyond crippled and haven’t played in ages.

It depends on the names, especially since it is a lot harder for me to gauge if it’s actually going to be a competitive match.
