In this format, teams will be presented with certain restrictions on units that they are required to or cannot use. They will then have 2 minutes to discuss strategy before the game starts.

This will be a series of 3 games featuring some of the current top players in MA:
Darkness, HaydenEliza, MicroJackson, MrStabby, Rain, Time, Seering, Sharks*

Teams will be randomized prior to the first game.

The event is currently planned to take place at 5pm EST on Sunday, October 15.*

It will be streamed and casted live by Akash at https://www.twitch.tv/akash_ma.

Dam Akash already setting up fun stuff for us the first week of being Dev. Thanks!

Yay! Do you have an idea of the teams, or is this random as well?

"Teams will be randomized prior to the first game."

Yep, random teams - provides the opportunity for last-minute subs if needed. Also, probably more fun this way - tis a battle of quick thinking and instant teamwork!

Participants, please try to be at least logged into battlenet about 10 minutes before the game.
Will make it much easier to set up and start on time <3

do all teams have the same restrictions?

Have you confirmed the time with other participants??

yes and yes - hope people remember to show up z

This will be fun

Can this be delayed 2 hours or at least one?

I was going to ask if it can be pulled forward two hours. I'm available between 3 - 5

I would suggest just trying to start at the normal if not enough then we can wait for people

Oboy, gonna be hard to switch the time this late :C

Probably have to get subs or something if you guys can't make it, since basically everyone is expecting 5pm

I shall do my best to show up on time. Might be a tad late, I'll let ya know.

You better come

That's what she said

Im not the one not coming like a casual xD

Thanks to everyone who played and watched! We had some difficulties in typical MA scrim fashion, and ended up starting about an hour late. There was also a long pause after the first game, so we could only get 2 games in. I am proud of everyone for following the no BM rule, thank you so much for that <3

The first 2 rulesets below are the ones we used. Feel free to use the third one in one of your scrims if you guys want.

Attached are the replays. I did stream and cast the first game as an observer, and streamed my point of view as a player for game 2. I suggest watching the replays rather than the stream if you want to see all the action. If you want the stream, it's saved at twitch.tv/Akash_MA. Links below:

Game 2

Hopefully this gave people some ideas for other Random Rulesets, and maybe we'll see some cool scrims in the future! Happy MA-ing

Cool to see you can still get this going. I watched part of it, look fun.

Sounds like it was a blast. Would love to do the air only one sometime.
