@IronMan if we had a decent connection in Lebanon, more talent would be discovered by European teams
TOURNAMENT UPDATE:
Good news and bad news:
Good news:
After talks with the owner of SpotNet in Hamra, we are to hold the tournament there. For the people who were there, you know how amazing the place is. For those who don't it features high end gaming rigs with Core i7 4th Gen and GTX 690s or 780s, 144 Hz screens and high end gaming mice, keyboards and headsets, with a 40 mbps dedicated upload speed and really low latency to European servers all over, also it has its own server INSIDE the cyber cafe, therefore we are able to place CSGO on the server and connect to it and play 128 tick at 0 latency. So it seems like the perfect place to hold the first major CS:GO Tournament in.
Bad News:
The owner wants to hold Dota 2 tournament first, League of Legends tournament second and lastly a CS:GO tournament simply because there are far more teams willing to participate in these two games than CS:GO and therefore its better for business. Personally I don't blame him, but its still a downer. On the other hand we have more time to sort some things out, gather more teams and prepare better for the tournament to make it a truly amazing event. So we're looking at a mid summer date around late July- Early August. If more teams would sign up, I'm sure we'll be able to make the tournament earlier and higher priority than Dota 2 or atleast League, but for now that is the main issue, not enough teams therefore not an important priority for the owner. So if you can advertise it, tell your friends or anyone you know who plays CS:GO and willing to participate in the tournament, please do.
