You can completely nullify the effect of cover increasing wiith combo and tbh you don't even need a skin for it, you can use your shirt, a piece of paper or whatever, and due to mods not being tied to hitposition of the skin, you can lower hitposition to the very bottom of your screen for FI and gain a lot more room to read.
Thats why FL is easier for most people because of stable vision area so you dont need any lanecovers.

I dont know whether staff realize that FI doesnt help in reading for 99,9% people even with lanecovers about staff is scared (heh, make FL vision area combo dependent and almost everyone will make lane covers for it) and make FL as a pick in freemod bracket (with score multiplier) that is significantly easier for most people than FI (we have also FL mains) is totally absurd.

Yes, I feel better with FI than with FL because my reading is focused on top of the screen (upscroll) so FL is unplayable for me and putting FI free to pick in nomod bracket is like saying "fu*k you" to those people because they will do better without mods and automatically put them on worse position in freemod bracket.

Atm its totally favourzing players who are more capable with FL, unfortunately.

Yeah, but as long FL+HR is not playable you can always pick HR and win anyways. Yeah, it hits your accuracy but idk.

I just mean that vision mods are not balanced, people who are not able to read FL but can read other vision mods (that is FI) are automatically put in lose position.

Allowing only 1 vision mod because the rest is "broken" doesnt make sense, its fawourizig people who are able to play FL. Allow all vision mods in freemod (except HD) or disallow all of them. We want balanced tournament or not?

I'm gonna restate my request: Can you please allow the usage of HD/FI in both brackets or name a reason why you won't do it?

Edit: nvm i'm stupid :P

I'm pretty sure what Loctav said means you can use them in both, the only difference is that HD/FI do not satisfy the requirement of mods used in free mod. That means that you could have a team doing no mod, no mod, HR and satisfy the condition of it because of the HR player, but you can't have a team doing no mod, no mod, HD because HD is not considered eligible for qualifying for FM. One of the players would need to add either HR/FL (obviously will be HR because HD + FL = nope).

FI on upscroll does the exact same thing as on downscroll. And why FI? Because FI unlike HD forces you to cut your scroll speed to about 40% just to be able to read it properly. On HD, you're using a scroll speed relatively close to your nomod scroll so it's not that hard to learn it. However FI requires a lot more practice.
Also for the "who even plays FI" question - everyone who has their focus point on the screen (the area where you look at notes) below middle and/or people who play on relatively slow scroll speed. If you have your focus point directly in the middle, FL will be better for you, but if you look lower - FI is the way. I myself prefer FI over FL actually.
surely you want to take players out of their comfort zone, however, did you know some of the players have been playing HD for many years and they will be forced to switch to nomod just because of the rules of this tournament? They will never compare with hardcore nomod players since they will not have enough time to practice or they do not have enough experience. Also if you think in the opposite way its also true as nomod players will never hit as accurate compared to pro HD players since it is not their best ability to play with such mod. This is why its not fair at all. I believe the better way to do is to release the scoreV2 however give a certain amount of time for players to adjust their skill sets (maybe a few months or even a year) so mostly everyone will be on the same level. Just my opinion.

I know not everyone is gonna agree with this but.
I think having scoreV2 in official MWC would be a really fun experience, you know why? because think about the ''challenges'' you are facing as a player that way, getting everyone off their comfort zone, where everyone could have an advantage (or not) on a lot of things, it would be a truly significant experience to people in this MWC. If you're not a wuss about loosing your precious ''prize and profile badge' then this might be the best thing that could come to you as a player, i'm pretty sure winning a tourney when you're that high leveled in skillset you'd be pretty much bored and wouldn't find it

remotely interesting at all. plus on the other hand this could actually furthen the development for our beloved game mode, it would be pretty hilarious seeing one of the top 4k players getting these absurd scores and would be pretty entertaining to watch from viewers perspective aswell imo, so yeah i'm not really doubting the staffs choices on it at all, it's something i'm looking forward to see and remember lmao.

Was trying to look at it from a top player's perspective i mean, the whole point of the tourney should be competing and challenging yourself am i wrong?
And i find it pretty stupid to fear over score v2 because you wouldn't win easily.

You are completely wrong... Yes i get it for people like you are not predicted to be finalists can say that its not about winning, but did you think about the ones like Halogen- and his other teammates who have already won one championship and due to the change in rules they might not be able to win again. Did you watch the 2015 4k world cup? I mean they definitely deserved it, from the accuracy, the combo and the score, they defeated every single country in this world. They did not just win because they followed the rules or better at manipulating it by finding the best player for certain mods etc. So if you think in their persepctive, every one of them wants to win and its the reason why they took the hassle to sign up and even create a thread like this, you get me? Competitiveness is already real.

gah... you didn't quite get the point either.

The point that I was insinuating off of my post is that I'm actually extremely open to the changes and have no issue dealing with them, regardless of whether or not it affects me or the rest of my team. Remember that I am someone who is an open advocate to score v2, and I am also an advocate that is quite critical and wanting to help in the process by testing, whether that testing involves data or actual play.

But it's not about that: the change in rules is just an additional challenge that I personally appreciate, it's just... not refined. For me, it has nothing to do with winning, and that's why I highlighted the bold part. Winning or losing doesn't matter to me. What matters to me is that everyone has a good time, disagreements with the rules aside. It should be a reasonably level playing field.

This is exactly what this specific mwc needs actually, people like you AJ, but that might not be the case for everyone however i was just pointing out that there can be ~those~ kind of mindset as to why they dislike ScoreV2 being featured in this years tourney.

This tournament should be called "V2 tournament" instead of "world cup", just as the brackets should be called "free-bracket" and "mod-bracket" instead of "NoMod" and "FreeMod", because
  1. winning a tournament that is about something new/a specific cathegory doesnt make you a "champion" in general
  2. a bracket where FI/HD are optional isnt NoMod
  3. a bracket where you're forced to use a mod isn't FreeMod
It's not bad the way it is, the names are just very misleading.

That shouldn't matter that much since everyone basically knows of ''scoreV2'' and they probably checked the wiki / all teams should've read the rules to understand what's going on.

There was an announcement in the news section here since nearly a month ago though. That probably would've sufficed

Rolling out the first teams to the wiki.

On a side note, I believe score v2 is now available on Stable, too. Keep in mind that if you use Fallback, you won't be able to play.

You can reside wherever you are, what matters alone is your profile flag. However, if your entire team is in Canada and you are in China, I hardly can have the match times align properly for you and the rest of your team, so be aware that I can't take your unusual timezone (relative to your team) into consideration.

You were suppose to go here and register but it ended already if you look at the date for the Registration Phase (28 Jun - 17 Jul 2016) it already ended. Pretty much you're too late.

You need to use at least Stable for the MWC. You cant use fallback.

Okay thanks, because my accuracy is less good than the Fallback version. Need to play on Stable version to try to fix it.

Thats because V2 is not implemented on fallback. So when you have songs that are OD8 or higher the accuracy room is tighter.

Yeah I know, but my latency is different between those versions.

Regarding the SK vs Japan WBD - Snow Wind apparently couldn't make it due to work (https://twitter.com/HNC_KSnyan/status/766966874345082880) and denkyu is mentioning some typhoon effect (https://twitter.com/denkyu_estlight/status/767044306804678656) but I don't understand it well enough to know, whether he is talking about himself or not.

The typhoon thing aside, I would imagine in case of Snow Wind, he knew about the upcoming work and hence Japan maybe didn't like the time? This is what I found in rules:
In the stages Quarter-finals and higher: Please inform tournament management before Sunday, if you expect a specific time slot to be unavailable in the following week. Wishes are tried to be followed, alas no promises can be made.
The way I understand it, teams must inform you before schedule is done by you, so they must preventively declare unwanted time slots. Did Japan screw up by not telling you about Snow Wind's unavailability during this time?

Anyways, too bad we missed the highlight of quarterfinals :( Hopefully Halogen delivers lots of rainbow later today :)

Main questions of the tournament:
- Asian derby final (Japan vs South Korea) confirmed?
- Tiebreaker Hype in final is real?
- Does any non-Asian country has chance to win this tournament?
- Will Ztrot sing Brain Power if another WBD appear?
- Will Loctav stop catching pokemons and being mad if something not goes right?

SK vs Japan confirmed? It can be, but I would say it is unlikely :P
If it wasnt for SK tho, this tourney would be sooo much harder to predict! Taking them down will be a pain for all the teams remaining at this point.

And I WOULD LOVE a tiebreaker in the finals :D

Grand finals will be South Korea vs. USA/Brazil/(slight shot: Japan?)

- Hayabusa has been really ruining things for the United Kingdom team with his lack of practice (although, Pipper is doing a hell of a job improving!). Yipyapyop will be a very welcome return, and honestly, Pipper -> Hayabusa sub seems viable for numerous maps given the aforementioned lack. Hayabusa's stronger as a player physically, for sure.

- Japan's roster is not deep, but inteliser is a fucking monster and Snow Wind is also great in his own right. PiraTom adds some depth by having a super-solid LN ability as a third player, but falls a little short on the speed side, making the team vulnerable against super speed picks. The wild-card who wasn't on the team last year, DenkyuSM, could be that bridge that mitigates some of that damage.

- Brazil is downright fucking dangerous, and a likely contender for the third place match against the loser between South Korea and USA. Their team is solid all-around, and their specialization in speed helps them tremendously. They also perform well on LN. Their struggles will be on the accuracy fronts on the speedier stuff, but their ability to combo can circumvent that.

Yeah, I agree that USA and Brazil can impress us in finals. But USA playing vs SK, and Brazil also can play with Japan. So it's like "now or never". But still waiting to see their strength with that damn non humans xD.

Yeah hype ...

I was thinking which team setup had realistic shot at playing close match with SK and this is the conclusion:
Halogen- + SillyFangirl + inteliser

How to call them though? United BraPan? :P

On the other hand, WindyS seems to have retired according to his profile, so perhaps slight LNs advantage for Brazil?

Congratulations to South Korea for taking the cup! Brazil did an outstanding job, obtaining the 2nd place and the United States fought their way to the 3rd place, unfortunately able to defend their title but still remaining as one of the world strongest teams!

Thanks everyone for participating and watching! The wiki has been updated, user titles have been given out. profile badges and distribution of the prizes will happen in the course of the next days!
