Good Afternoon All
I am returning to the game, and I have noticed within 1 week of being back that no-one is soloing anymore. So many zerglings and keep humpers that it makes me sick. This post isn't to bash people who are afraid to hop out of the zerg or keeps once in a while, it is to promote solo gameplay. As the forum post suggests I am hosting a video contest to see who can make the best solo roaming video out there.
Prizes
First place = 1000g
Second place = 500g
Third place = 250g
Fourth/Fifth place = 100g each.
RULES
Entering contestants must send me their name and current RR before February 13th . discord is Biff#2665
Warboard RR addon will be used and displayed in every clip to ensure no old footage is used.
As the name suggests, SOLO roaming content only, no scenarios, no small mans.
Video must be submitted before March 6th when the winners will be decided, this gives a little over a month to come up with something good.
How winners will be determined
1st. Skill of the player. Skill will be based off of your quality of kills, a sorcerer killing a KOTBS or WH will be valued above an AM kiting down a level 16 BG.
2nd. Quality/Number of clips. a video proving that you in fact solo a lot with a ton of clips will have a lot of value. clips do not have to be long, they just have to be numerous.
3rd. Video editing, put some effort in lol, don't just download bandicam, forget to turn off the bandicam banner, and band-aid your clips together, Gork will be displeased and my eyes will bleed.

Why exclude dwarfs?
So discriminating...
