How would you guys like to see Asian HL vs. NA Plat HL as a Christmas showmatch? Bless, the top asian highlander team, has the collection of the best players from Asia for each class while 20b, the champion team of UGC NA Plat, works excellently as a team and are arguably one of the best in platinum. It would truly be an interesting match to watch (bo3 preferably) and if the teams are willing and of course you, the community, is interested, it will truly be a success and it will prove whether Asians are really as good as they are cracked up to be.
Cheers,
Viggi
P.S. We neeed casters if this becomes reality...hope it's something like a Christmas TF2 Special. Timezones etc. etc. need to be worked out D:

Interesting. How do you propose we handle servers? Is it even playable for Asian teams to join NA servers or vice versa?

They get 150-200 ping on west coast...east coast = add another 100-150. Flip a coin, winner choses.
3 maps:
Map 1:(winner of the coin flip choses home server [hopefully west coast to mid US or Japan/Korea])
Map 2:Other team decides
Map 3:(winner choses)
This is the best or one of the best solutions (this was how they did EU vs NA i think)...but regardless it will be interesting to watch :D

Id check it out. Not too familiar with the Asian scene so maybe it would put some spot light on them. Anything to help build more hype. Is a Hawaiian server even an option?

I doubt I'll be available to cast live because I never am. But please, for the love of C'thulhu, save the demos!

Sweet I think there is actually quite a bit of interest

I'm sure there would be interest but I'd first talk to the teams and see if A) they are willing to play and B) they can find an agreeable time BEFORE you start planning things out.

As a source, I was in Singapore earlier this year and tried to play with friends in NA. Ended up rage quitting after about 10 minutes.

Sounds like we need multiple show matches involving the Asian, Euro and Australian scenes!
(Maybe a.. TOURNY?)

Someone should really contact the teams before talking about things like this.

Yea, hawaii isn't gonna mean anything. What is the ping from an east coast player to hawaii?

East Coast to Hawaii is around 140-150.
Chicago to Hawaii is around 120-130
Texas to Hawaii is around 100-110
Seattle to Hawaii is around 90-100
LA to Hawaii is around 70-80.
This is all based on what I average on. Estimate keep this mind. Their are no Hawaii servers at the moment. Most you can do is ask someone with a beast computer that lives on Hawaii and host it.
