Team Zenith FF 2 Tournaments (ENG)

[LGK42]

 

Официальная новость с JD

 

 

n a shocking move, Zenith has decided to withdraw from BeyondTheSummit World Tour despite progressing past the group stages and into the playoffs. Their withdrawal will mean that Orange moves to second place, while World Elite takes third in the group.

 

Citing their desire to train privately for The International 2012, the team will no longer be competing in the $1000 tournament.

 

Zenith has been engulfed in a few controversies lately, with a stand-in player of theirs using an offensive nickname, as well as dissatisfaction from the community after their controversial performance against Counter Logic Gaming.

 

Zenith released the following statement regarding the standin:

 

During Thursday's match with Team Infused in the ProDOTA World League, xy- had an emergency just as the match was scheduled to begin. As such, Team Zenith had to hurriedly look for a replacement on short notice.

 

Regrettably, the nickname used by our stand-in was offensive and in poor taste. We offer no excuses for this oversight and would like to apologize to all who were offended. Zenith will make sure that there will be no repeat of this unfortunate episode. This individual's opinion does not reflect Zenith's and once again, the players and staff would like to extend our heartfelt apologies to all.

 

 

Zenith has yet to comment on their withdrawal from this tournament.

 

Edit: Zenith has also decided to forfeit their match against mousesports for ProDOTA2 League and thus will out of the tournament as they are currently in the loser's bracket.

 

A statement has been released by Zenith regarding the matter:

 

Dear all, Zenith has decided to withdraw from the Beyond The Summit World Tour tournament. After attempting to play on a US West server, the players have found it counterproductive to play regular games on a server with significant delay. We have decided to concentrate our efforts on training for The International, using the extra time to train with teams from the SEA region. We wish all the other

teams all the best in the remainder of the tournament.

 

Unfortunately, Zenith had to forfeit the match against mousesports in the ProDOTA World League earlier tonight. This was not a flippant act of disregard for the tournament as some have speculated. xy- had National Service duties (army) which he could not take leave from. We have tried to talk to admins earlier in the day to postpone the match to 11.30pm-12.00am so as to accomodate xy- as he rushes home to play the match, so that we did not need to employ any stand-in. Regrettably, mousesports were unwilling to play at any other time and hence we had no choice but to forfeit the match. We apologize to fans who were looking forward to the game.

 

Moving forward, Zenith will be 100% focused on training solely for The International. We will most likely not be participating in international online competitions but we will still be taking part in tournaments hosted on SEA servers, such as the Alienware Game Victorious tournament. We hope to have your support in this last crucial leg of preparations before the team flies off to Seattle.

 

 

 

 

Мнение Годза по этому поводу

 

 

I confirmed, and re-confirmed with all teams they would be okay playing on the servers (USW in this case) , and insisted that they make sure it won't be an issue (including testing it). Teams were not forced and begged to participate, they were simply invited, and had the oppurtunity to compete or not compete. mTw and NaVi chose not to compete - I respect that, and fully understand why they chose to do so.

Zenith said they would play, and play they should. What they are now doing is disrespectful to their fans, sponsors, and the organizers and very unprofessional.

 

 

 

 

Мнение Furryfish(я так понял это она)

 

 

Just to clarify what you're saying:

 

IObviouslyAmMe first approached Zenith to invite the team for this tournament. It was rejected by furryfish, manager of Zenith. What happened after was that GoDz went ahead to approach hyhy to invite him, again, to the same tournament.

 

After this, the team discussed this issue and decided to give it a try. As many of you would point out, Zenith has NEVER played any international online tournaments hosted on non-SEA servers prior to this. It was after a second attempt at invitation that the players decided to give it a shot. And they did play, but the feedback was that it was very disruptive to their training. The International would be played on LAN, which is why the team has been training intensively and solely on low-ping servers to be fully accustomed to the conditions in Seattle.

 

The game vs CLG was deemed unproductive and a poor showcase of the team's skill due to the fact that the team is not accustomed to 200-300 ping. Rather than repeat the same thing whenever playing on a US server, the team decided to pull out of the tournament entirely.

 

Also, a personal question to GoDz :

Can you say for sure that you've never pulled out of casting due to internet connectivity issues? Especially when you know it will affect the experience of fans/viewers of the game?

 

The tournament admins have access to our contacts on Skype and even Whatsapp. If you, David, would like an explanation of our withdrawal, it would be more professional to contact us about it instead of airing your views about the integrity of the team on a public forum before we have drafted a formal statement to be released.

 

Please feel free to contact furryfish directly if you have any further feedback about any of the issues highlighted above.

I already wrote a personal apology regarding the nickname used by our standin in the game vs infused.

I love all homos and they tend to love me back :) HenryD included!

 

The reasoning to us pulling out of these tournaments is not due to the fact that we dont give a fuck about the community or the tournaments in themselves... Its due to the fact that we are actually not able to show up with a full lineup. What people does not know is that two of our members are currently in army, and if we are unlucky their superiors wont let them get time off.

 

If you feel the need to rage at us you are welcome to do just that (well actually most of you are alrdy doing that :D). But just wanted to explain myself to some extent.

что-то на уровне, забиваем на все бомжетурниры @ готовимся к TI2

[LGK42]

чё там дизбанд?

Нет офк

Короче пишут что какие-то мутки у двух парней с сингапурской армией, не могут приходить на игры, а играть со стендингами и на юсвесте им нахуй не надо

 

Ну еще немного инсайда про то что первый раз Годза послали нахуй с его онлайн турниром, но он списался персонально с хуху и типо уломал. Щас пишет что якобы все добровольно согласились и никто никого не заставлял, в общем выглядит как крысапес. Вообще много вокруг него каких-то муток, странный типуля.

[hiplsdietnxbye]

все равно неинтересно было смотреть игры с высокими пингами и без мотивации.

СКАНДАЛЫ!

Как то Вилат говорил что раньше мы и не думали об играх китая с европой, хост боты были в проектах и пинг под 1000, а сейчас с дотой два мы видим матчи азия европа. Но так ли это? Почти каждый матч европы с азией/америкой начинается с выбора хоста, и игроки начинают ныть что мол у нас пинг, лагает, модем 512 кбит и др. Потом одну играют на хосте команды из азии, другую на европе. А потом говорят "мы проиграли из за пинга". Что думаете по этому поводу? Смогут ли играть запад и восток в равынх условиях?

[F1sher]

1. Сами знаете кого сами знаете кому

 

2. Да смогут играть на равных условия, но лагать будут обе команды одинаково сильно

[lolwhat_ip]

офк лучшее решение для валв поставить серваки на полюсах, пинг будет примерно одинаковым и ныть ни кто не будет

[StandAndGo]

Что-то много внимания не стоящим того вещам

[Tass]

Годз это кто?

Godz насколько я понял

турнировщик и комментатор

[P3rry_Mason]

внатуре! Давайте обсудим, почему фимейлы в доте ниочень

 

не серьезно. Что им мешает ? Замедленная реакция ? Мышление деревянное ? Отсутствие логики ? Инстинкт самосохранения (не лезут под вышки и не прыгают за хвостом/артстайлом в толпу 2х5) ? Беременность ? Физическая особенность скелета, как-то: маникюр, намазанные кремом руки и маски на лицах ? Бигуди ?

 

хмм... надо бы голосовалку зопилить :tusila-zavodila:
