ESEA All-Star voting process

9-3-2013 18:16

ESEA has released more details about how the voting process for the upcoming All-Star game between Europe and North America will be made.

The ESEA Invite finals will take place from April 19th to 21st in Dallas, with the top four teams from both the European and the North American divisions battling it out for the tournament's first prize of $17,500.

Prior to the main tournament, however, there will be an All-Star match between the two regions, with the winner of this region getting the higher seed when the teams are placed in the bracket.

In order to determine how the two All-Star teams will be composed, an ESEA panel will nominate two players from each of the four teams in attendance to represent their continent. All ESEA Premium users will then be able to vote for one of them.

After the first four All-Star team members have been selected, the losers will be placed in a separate poll, from which the fifth and sixth (backup) members will be elected.

ESEA-Invite Team list:

Europe:

Ninjas in Pyjamas	VeryGames
Patrik "f0rest" Lindberg	Kévin "Ex6TenZ" Droolans
Christopher "GeT_RiGhT" Alesund	Kenny "kennyS" Schrub

n!faculty<ESC

2013-03-09 18:26

not so sure about that, esc simply had a harder schedule. esc on the other hand has placed top4 at every lan since northcon while n!faculty hasn't passed the group stage since eswc.

Nice analysis. (y)

2013-03-09 19:30

ScreaM aint shit on LAN obviously. Interp bug much on that guy.

2013-03-09 19:42

hahaha clueless cunt, ScreaM is much better on lan than online, and so is the whole team verygames

2013-03-09 21:44

2013-03-09 21:50

He didn't preform as good as he does online, of course its more comfortable to play at home... I understand that. But its no secret that he used the interp-bug when it existed, so did Lemondogs... look at them now.

i prefer lan 100000 times than HOME :s

2013-03-10 00:57

You can't have more than 2 guys from one team.... read...

2013-03-09 22:18

Well, f0rest can handle AWP pretty well if it's needed? :D

2013-03-09 19:24

true ;)

Dosen't really matter how the voting ends. The europeans will walk away with an easy win anyway..

lol this mexes never go easily for anyone

2013-03-09 19:57

The communication could be a factor, america is getting a huge adantage since English is the only language theyll be speaking. Almost unfair but im sure they will just try to have fun on both sides which ks what matters.

2013-03-09 22:28

True that..We all know wich team that will end up winning the lan anyway lol

2013-03-09 23:57

Lmao so true, gg nip. I just try to predict second place now lmao

2013-03-09 18:45

stop write stupid opinion of TOP 5 if youdont understand vote. There must be maximal 2 player from 1 team and every team must have player in dream team . NIP would have probably that 2 players so dreamteam: GTR,fOrest,Dosia,Scream or kennys and maybe kirby or asmo

2013-03-09 18:48

where does it say "and every team must have player in dream team".

2013-03-09 18:54

hltv.org/news/9985-esea-finals-format-fo.. Each continent will have at least one and a maximum of two players from each team representing themselves in a best-of-one all-stars match on a pre-determined map at the beginning of the finals. Community will get to vote for the players on ESEA's website

Community will get to vote for the players on ESEA's website Meaning each team must have at least one player in the Dream team. :P

2013-03-09 22:33

maybe 2 comment from 60 understand the rules....who have actually reading the post when make a comment??!!! forest nbk dosia angel mantis

2013-03-09 19:26

I can be honest, I didn't read the post, because these kinda news are just boring and dull to read, it's more fun to just write what you would pick. But I do see your point.

2013-03-09 19:43

Wondering if the russians will make it to America in the end. :) Wouldn't surprise me if they won't be able to go due to visa problems.

2013-03-09 19:27

They probably made sure to prepare their visas already

2013-03-09 22:32

Hope n! don't get their visas done on time and ESC passes :P . . . . PLEASE.

2013-03-09 19:31

Europe: GeT_RiGhT Ex6TenZ qk-Mantis ANGE1 ScreaM

2013-03-09 19:53

Ex6TenZ? he is a very good caller, but one of the worst aimers of all european teams attending the LAN. is it true that one player from each team has to be in the dreamteam lineup? if so: GeT_RiGhT F0rest kennyS Ange1 qk-Mantis don't really see how the US can stand a chance against this. will be a great showmatch never the less and I'm looking forward to it!

2013-03-09 20:11

Maybe Ex6TenZ aim is "not sooo good atm" but you must see like this. GTR + ScreaM got amazing aim. So if Ex6 calls they can do the Frags :P

2013-03-09 21:47

it's mix vs mix , so i don't think that they'll need strats calling + ex6tenz rages when someone don't listen to him :P

2013-03-09 22:25

If the europeans lose this I'm gonna blame it on the universal language problem. GeT_RiGhT Friberg Dosia Scream kennyS

2013-03-09 21:11

Are you kidding? They can win without speaking at all and one eyes closed.

2013-03-09 21:58

Most of users here don't read news. It is few lines and it is too complicated for them ... Noobs, you must have player from each team, 2max from 1 team So stick your 3*NiP & 2*VG lineups in you smart .........

2013-03-09 21:18

haha I kno right :P

2013-03-09 21:37

since these teams dont really have strats, id take screaM over anyone in europe5 except for gtr. - ScreaM - Get_Right - f0rest - dosia - Kirby Not familiar with the US scene, yet i find it unfair that there are 4 teams from NA and 4 teams from Europe. Europe has a much larger professional scene and obviously better.

2013-03-09 21:33

I think it's fair that american teams get to attend a major event without having to use considerably more money than eu teams for once.

2013-03-10 00:00

I really like this all-star match idea. Sure Europe will probably win pretty easily, but the process is exciting =) Good tournament setup with solid prizes

since its on esea for premium members only gonna guess EU: gtr, scream, dosia, qk-mantis, and f0rest or rpk will probly win the 5th place vote. US: Dazed, Skadoodle, n0thing, kiko, and Azk or maybe swag for the 5th.
