"Do this in remembrance of me"
- Jesus


When I created the Twink Cup three years ago I never even dreamed that it would succeed as much as it did. My only intentions were to revive the bracket, promote competition, and provide hope and joy to anyone who cared about the community or relied on it as much as I did.

Leading up to the second Twink Cup I began to dream of an even greater hope than the growth of guilds and the friendships contained within, or the expansion of the community with the rivalries and camaraderie that would bring.

I dreamed of something greater than the respect and recognition that's earned as you better yourself as a player through fierce competition, and I dreamed of something even greater than the glory of victory itself.

I dreamed that I was building a future for the community that I loved.

I dreamed of professional team sponsorships and community broadcasters, packed exhibition centers, famous streamers from our community, and of the Twink Cup turning into a broad media platform that would be able to provide real opportunities for success for people in our community.

Many of you shared my dreams and I think the real problem with the community right now isn't item scaling or the meta or the bracket merge, it's that the dream is dead.

The NWL is going to be switching their focus to end game because there's a greater chance of success there, but if we want our community to thrive as a twinking community I think we need to try to focus more on the core values of the original Twink Cup than the lofty hopes and dreams of the later ones.

The goal of this league won't be to create a professional quality stream or "quality content", and people won't be excluded if they can field a team that adheres to the rules. The goal is to promote activity, competition, and growth within the bracket.

Blueprint donated $200 from his share of the last Twink Cup to the community, I'll be adding that to the majority of my half of the website earnings to host a 6 week WSG tournament over the next 2 months.

If this season goes well I'll try to keep this league going throughout the year.

o_O might be looking for a team hehe
 
This is sick! Its exactly what the community needs right now. I think arenas are better than BGs all around, given the current circumstances in the bracket. I'm excited!

This exactly
if we want our community to thrive as a twinking community I think we need to try to focus more on the core values of the original Twink Cup than the lofty hopes and dreams of the later ones.

Hmmm... never have really liked lowbie arenas. I may be "forced" to give it go now if I am to get to play.
Fomocoman#1460 for those that are interested in a resto shaman for practice.

What faction might though be from? This has peaked my interest. I would like to play Rsham, Boomy, Lock, if you are by any chance interested. :D (I have your btag already!)
 
Anyone interested in practicing in some wargames add my Btag: showtune#11972

my team is online alot and we are looking for some spicy games.
 
most of the banned spell list has made those classes null and void and nobody will show up with them

nice going
