how can anyone possibly let a triple dps team in ANY tournament... its like.. your whole argument is based around RLS RLS RLS.. just like everyone else's... did you not watch the last NAO's??? 1 RLS made it to the main tournament while the other pretty much got embarrassed.. and even Snutz's rls lost a match to vanguards.. so basing your argument off the fact that lets get triple dps because RLS might be in the tournament is pretty stupid..

like... it seems that everybody's argument for pro triple dps is that RLS is in the tournament so why shouldn't triple dps be allowed.  you don't understand that triple dps isnt very.. logical because obviously Blizzard made different spec's and classes for a reason?? lets see.. you have casters, melee dps, ranged melee dps, tanks, and healers..  so lets look at recent Blizzcon tournaments and other tournaments.. do you see any double healer teams or triple dps? no you don't.. why would you think now they would let triple dps in tournaments?  

you can legit be the best team in the world, and lose to a random triple dps comp for no reason.. just because you don't like the comp RLS doesn't mean triple dps should be allowed.  your opinion is merely a small number in the percentage of the community, and i HIGHLY doubt the majority of everybody else agrees slightly with you.  i cant think of ANYBODY besides holy pally teams that actually enjoy queing into triple dps teams, so why would people enjoy to see 3 random people just zerg down a healer or dps and win because of unhealable damage? i really dont think tahts fair for anybody.  

it seems that only a few people that can even participate in the tournament agree with you and even snutz does, but he is honestly the best warlock in the world running the best RLS too, so he obviously doesn't mind a challenge here and there, but as you can see he might not even play in the tournament, so the playing field seems fair without a triple dps, because as you can see from above, no other RLS can compare to his, so they are beatable.

i really rambled on here but i got my point across ;)

If that's how you interpreted my post I'm sorry. I'm actually not even sure why you quoted what I said to add your two cents.

Like RLS, RMP, and all the other popular cleaves, triple DPS happens to be a legitimate match-up that can excel. Sure you can argue they are mindless meatballs running forward, but I feel the same exact way against any other counter out there.

Excluding a team make-up because it is different or not as skilled does not seem legit to me.

Imagine yourself for a moment, not playing RLS, and instead playing fre mage/resto druid/enhancement shaman and grounded at 2100 because of how horrible your comp is. Now for some strange reason, you decide to put together a team that has more synergy and shoot up 400 rating. Clearly I'm a bad player and shouldn't be allowed to participate, right? I don't see the logic behind that

Not everyone has access to classes and partners that mesh well together. They make the best of what they have. And if it just so happens to be that they are sporting a high rating like that, why not showcase their game-play?

It's different... It's fun... And most of all, it provides entertainment that people are not accustomed to seeing. If you want this to be based off skill, everyone would be paired against a mirror match.

um... certain classes just dont work well with other classes.. sorry that RLS happens to be maybe the top comp atm with RMP up there.  when you mix classes that have CC that doesn't share DR with other classes CC, they tend to work well together.  sucks that the worst healer atm rdruids cant be used with a shit melee class enhancements with a fire mage.. sucks to suck
stop trying to be completely different and trying a comp you know wont work from the start, if you want to play a ghetto comp for fun go for it.

Nice quality and commentators as always - but there is really needed more info about NAO.

I've entered accidentally, but some infos 1-2 days before on AJ and Mmo champion are needed.

Hey, yeah we definitely need to do a better job at that.  Unfortunately, there was a sponsor/support mix up last moment, and we had very little prep time to get everything in functional order.  Hopefully it'll be better from here on!

@Raiku - You can find the raw twitch recording here: http://www.twitch.tv...inv/b/316945887

We are going to be uploading specific VoDs for the games on youtube as well.

So, is there NAO today? =) I definately agree that you should spread the word more. I don't understand why AJ doesn't post on front page.
