We would need multiple hosts willing to record matches on a weekly basis.If this becomes a thing, I'll volunteer to be one of the hosts. My forte doesn't really lie in bot building, rather AI'ing and hosting matches, so I'd like to be part of this community league in at least some form.
Ironforge doesn't really have a meta because there's probably been a maximum of 2 or 3 competitive tournaments in it.
For this to work, we need everyone to agree on one mod that is almost objectively the best for an innovative competitive environment, and then push all of our focus there.Ironforge would be brilliant for this. As Craaig said, there isn't really an established meta.
I'm sorry, could someone explain how this draft thing would work?
This definitely seems like something I'd be interested in, though.
[Sage] Hey kill, lets do you me and inf on a teamI think that's enough said there.
Seems like a good idea but I feel like irl should have it's own tournament
I think he meant season. Either way, I disagree. Enter IRL bots if you want. There's nothing barring you from doing so, as it seems.Seems like a good idea but I feel like irl should have it's own tournament
The whole POINT of this discussion is that it is one big tournament.
Enter IRL if you want but you will seriously let your team down. The whole point of this is that it's a team effort.Or, create a team with people who all wish to build IRL, and just have fun.
I'd be willing to help commentate as well.
Still up for full discussion:
1. Livestreams! These would be in addition to the recorded matches being posted. This will require a lot of dedication from everybody, with hosts and commentators (maybe) working as a team to deliver a consistent product. Would you come out to a saturday night livestream? With live chat and commentators going to work, this could be an awesome weekly event.

2. Commentators! BAH GAWD ALMIGHTY. WITH GAWD AS MAH WITNESS HE IS BROKEN IN HALF. Ideally I want a color commentator and a play by play commentator. Could help add a lot of flavor to this and really make it a spectator event.
all aboard the ironforge train

I don't think a livestream would be possible - it's ambitious, but it wouldn't work.
On the one hand, it seems really cool, on the other Fallout 4 came out just last week.
I want a color commentator
Oh, we'd also need a guy with a decent mic to announce. Someone with ridiculous amounts of enthusiasm, like the one out of robot wars.
getting somebody to record a vocal track week after week for all of the matches might be a bit much to ask. What would be really cool is having a dedicated announce team, with a play by play guy with a real base of knowledge of the game, and a colour commentator who is just straight up entertaining.

... I knew my day would come. I freaking love robot wars and I would be honoured if I could be the colour commentator. This forum has been a legend to me every since I saw the bot blood spider on YouTube, and upon finding this site (dsl in particular) it felt like I had found the gold city of el dorado so please if anything please let me a colour commentator I would work my ass off for it plus im incredibly enthusiastic (just ask red blur) and I have a dedicated mic for recording audio (its 40 pounds but eh). please consider this kill343gs and ill make it worth your while =)
love ecolusian from the bottom of his heart :heart_smiley: :heart_smiley: :heart_smiley:

In all fairness, I think you'd work better for the entertaining commentator.
Live stream isn't hard. Plus you can record at the same timeYeah, I'd have no problem doing that.
I think we should ditch the draft format/idea should be Each user who wants in owns a team of a LW, a MW, and a HW.
heres my audition for you guys, i hope you enjoy and thanks to redace for making the excellent video and for the red blur for making burning horizon (i made blueprint myself)
https://youtu.be/CK7A0mcwUtg
you should let andrew, helloface, and myself provife commetraty for the finals!plz
Because I have a full time job, and because one does not simply put down Fallout 4.On the one hand, it seems really cool, on the other Fallout 4 came out just last week.
Why not both? I manage to balance this, monster hunter, and college at the same time. (then again, I get internet at college, so...) MY POINT STILL STANDS!

Hmm... I think it would work better if you commentated on a live match, rather than over a premade youtube video. Say, commentating over two random stock ai bots fighting.
I feel like the commentary auditions should be done on a match youve never seen before.exactly what I was trying to say. I mean, it shows that you are much more play-by-play that way.
Dammit lightning I completely forgot about thoseYaaaaaaaaaaaaah baby!

We could all commentate the same match.
It'd be easier to see our spin on it.
EDIT: I'll get my track for commentary done ASAP. Have the worst sore throat right now. Getting a new mic tonight

Alright. If we're gonna do that, lets organise a challenge match. Come at me, bro. I'm willing to give it another shot, after my dismal failures.
Who wants to fight me? Who wants to host?

Okay. I may be crap at stock, but I shall try this. Challenge accepted. I will make the thread later.
In fact, I can't make a thread until I know which arena we would be using, as well as build style and whether or not hazards would be on.
Have fun guys.
If this is Ironforge I'm obviously not preforming.
