This was a great event with awesome live production. The format was a new one for me, strictly limited entry (4 games X2 in classics, 6 games X2 in main) spread over three days.
The games were generally set up extremely playable, usually factory settings with soft tilts (were a couple exceptions as usual).
The national team competition was exciting with people really getting into it.
Very much a different vibe than the pump and dump stuff we are used to. I really like the format, but the EPC is not a payout tournament and as long as the US model is payout provided by players, I’m sure PnD will stay the dominant format.
Was great to have Team USA there, and your commentary really elevated the finals stream to something else. I was watching the classics finals on the bus home and really feeling it thanks to the commentary. Lyman was very kind to answer in detail a question I had about AC/DC too.
