VAL10: There Will Be Blood
News / VAL

Comments (1)Posted by eXqUiSiTe[nK] on May 08, '10



With the SC2 Beta in progress and many people reverting back to the low money roots of Starcraft, take a trip back in time and enter the battle that is VAL. If you haven't joined in the SC2 Beta but are looking to play SC2 sometime in the future, I suggest you brush up on your low money skills by playing VAL. The top 5 finishes this season will receive the Respected flag and several months of premiumness (to be determined by Spartan at a later date). Good luck and happy gaming!

While VAL just doesn't receive the accolades and coverage that VGT does, the players that make up the VAL activity are appreciated just as much as the VGT players. Since being re-implemented in VAL3, VAL has seen small but steady growth activity. Despite this small growth of activity, there is still hope on the horizon. With SC2 bringing a direct injection of low money to the Starcraft community, I encourage all SC2 Beta players to take a break of SC2 low and go back to their roots -- SC/BW low money and go back to the old days for fun. Come try out the original low money on May 8th when VAL10 kicks off! With about ~200 matches under our belt, we give you the top 5 players in the ninth season of VAL.

The ninth season of Vile Amateur League is now in progress. Let's see if we can't make it an eventful season this time around, especially with StarCraft II on the horizon. I hope we get a better activity performance from fastest/money map players participating in VGT that want to transition and learn the art of normal maps. I highly recommend any of you looking to play SC2 that you start the transition now if you haven't already! Anyhow, the prizes for this season are the same as always: top 5 of the 1v1 ladder will get the respected flag and 1 month's worth of premium membership.

Season 8 of VAL is live!

The 8th season of Vile Amateur League is now in motion. Like the last season, only the 1v1 ladder is open for play. Withstanding the fact that there are better and more active non-money map leagues existing today, I really appreciate the support of those that do choose to get a few matches in under VAL. I was smurfing the last season to hide how newbie I am, but maybe this season I'll make a triumphant comeback and step into the limelight, or maybe not. The prize pool this season consists of the usual respected flag for the top 5, plus 2 months of premium membership to each of them.

I'll be implementing more exciting league features this season, but unfortunately the major ones I have planned are catered more towards VGT (being the more active league is all). That doesn't mean I won't do my best to show VAL some love though! Self-gloating aside, have fun and good luck this season, folks. I hope more of you choose to play this season in preparation for StarCraft II. The game is due to be released sometime this year and I wouldn't take that release date estimate lightly if I were you. ;)

On stage: VAL7

Season 7 of the Vile Amateur League is now in session! Again only the 1v1 ladder is available this season. Though there are many non-money leagues out there we do manage to get a few hundred matches played each season of VAL, which is a pleasant thing to see always. Heck, I may even get some matches of my own in this season to prepare for SC2. Of course that will be under a smurf name that I challenge you all to find out. The prizes this time around are the normal respected flag for the top 5 of the ladder, and one month of premium membership on VG (valued at $5).

As per standard procedure each season, I will be implementing new features into the league as the days fly by. I hope you're all looking forward to my surprises. Shit just gets better and better around here as long as I'm around, and you can't quote me on that in the future. Anyhow, enjoy the 7th season of VAL. I look forward to seeing which talented players will grace the top positions at the end of the season. Good luck and have fun!
