February Monthly Automated Tournament Commentary - 2/26

Date: Saturday, February 26
Time: 11:40am PST/7:40pm GMT
Place: Guru's GvG Commentary channel on justin.tv

Once again we will be providing commentary on the GvG Monthly Automated Tournament and it'd be great if you'd stop by and observe the play-offs with us! This is a great way to understand how GvG works, meet some top players, and ask questions. In addition, with the long-awaited dervish update finally out, commentators Asp of Rebel Rising [rawr] and Ensign of Idiot Savants [iQ] will be discussing the ramifications of the redesign of an entire class on PvP.

If you are unable to come or miss parts of this event, the entirety is being recorded for your convenience and a link will be provided once available.

IRC channel information:

You will need a program like xchat or mIRC to get into the channel, and both of those websites have setup guides. The channel info is as follows:

• Server: irc.gamesurge.net
• Port: 6667
• Channel: #gwgpickup

For those of you who would prefer to not install a client, you can use the available web client (just change the included channel to #gwgpickup).

In addition to Guru's IRC channel, stream chat will also be frequented by experienced players, so feel free to ask your questions there too.

For examples of previous months' commentary, recordings are available here.

Looking forward to the comments on the dervish update.

Indeed, this may prompt me to get up at 7am on a Saturday to watch GW instead of just watching the recording.

Good I can't wait to watch.

Way back in 2006, we collectively had to get up at 4am to play a Celestial match vs some Taiwain guild, it wasn't the most fun but we still laughed throughout and thankfully won.

Remember to tune in later today for coverage and post-mAT interviews.

If you are looking to enter in the Guru 2011 GvG Challenge, this is a great place to start!

Stream has started, flock on over!
