YOLO AND SPACECOWS UNITED ADVANCES

March 31, 2015 - SEA Dota 2 Inhouse League's very first SIL Season 1 Captain's Draft has kick off its 'Teamless Qualifiers' two nights ago. A total of 5 teams competing each other to fight for the last two slots to SIL Season 1 Captain's Draft main bracket.

Just last night, YOLO came out on the top with 4 convincing wins without a loss. This qualified team is what other team should look out for as they showed what they are capable of. Coming down to second, we have Spacecows United scored 3 wins against 1 loss in this qualifier. It is unfortunate for us to eliminate the other 3 teams, TongkatAli, Proper Planning Prevent Piss Poor Performance, and Raven, making them unable to participate in SIL Season 1 Captain's Draft.

FAQ (also known as Frequently Asked Questions)

Q: I don’t have a team or I don’t have enough teammates, what should I do?
A: As for now, we are trying to address this issue. The solution is to create a player’s application and letting guild members to fill it up and publicly reveal the informations for each player to recruit or join.

Q: Can I recruit teammates outside from the guild?
A: No, you should ask an officer to invite your teammates to the guild so they can join the tournament.

Q: Wouldn’t it be unfair if we’re up against players who are higher MMR than we are?
A: Yes, it would be but we don’t have a proper solution or approach to it for now. Although this is an issue for lower MMR players, we have a team developing a web-based system to be released in future.

Q: Can we still participate after 18 teams being registered?
A: Teams that unable to join the first 18 teams are able to join the qualifiers and fight for the last 2 slots. Total of 20 teams will advance to the brackets of SIL Season 1 Captain's Draft.

Q: Qualifiers? Why do you need qualifiers?
A: We have quite a number of players don't belong to any team and we are planning to help them for a team of 5 and join the qualifiers. This creates a situation where most of the guild members are able to participate SIL Season 1 Captain's Draft.

Q: What is this web-based system being mentioned?
A: Our development of this system is in alpha stage. We will have an official announcement in April 2015 through our social media platform.

Q: I want to be Dendi/SuMaiL, make solomid 1v1 happen.
A: Based on the survey, majority of the members have voted 5v5 over the other two options. This doesn’t mean we won’t have 1v1. After rounds of discussion, we might have a weekly 1v1 challenge instead of a tournament. This idea is tentative.

Q: Why Captain’s Draft instead of Captain Mode?
A: We chose this mode because we believe with Captain’s Draft, players can showcase their innovation better and find alternative playstyles suited to different environments.

Q: What is the bracket or format of this tournament?
A: We will release the bracket once we have 20 teams registered with us. Please look out for this post/our blog for the bracket updates and also number of teams accepted.
Q: Is this tournament being streamed?
A: Yes, whenever we have caster(s) available.

Q: Where can I watch the stream?
A: We will stream on twitch.tv/sildota or more other streamer’s links will be posted.

Q: What is the prize pool?
A: We have some sponsors that are willing to provide a prize in the tournament.

Q: Can we smoke gank and backdoor to get the prize pool?
A: > I will purchase Smoke of Deceit (On cooldown, 03:22 remaining)

 Q: What happened to croutons5? I miss him.
A: I'm right here.
