Are pro T1 scrims for messing around or is that open scrims? I’m confused, should we or should we not take them seriously? Can I get some responses from successful teams as to how they take on scrims?

Messing around like not playing to win. I get trying different strats and drops but people doing stuff to knock a team out without caring about the W. Or playing the way they wouldn’t in tournaments. Like do people practice how they’re gonna perform for tourneys in T1?
This thought process is concerning for the main reason being that you're now putting the onus on any team trying to change or adapt their early game to prove that they are being serious. Unless something obvious occurs, you have to accept it in scrimms 1/2

Sometimes you want to implement new and risky strategies that without practice will not work. They might even look like the team isn't playing to win if the strategy fails entirely. It's a slippery slope and is a big reason why scrimms should be run by a "council." 2/2

Agreed, we’ve done exactly that knowing full well that we needed to be more aggressive so we switch our drop spots to contest to try to “work” on team play to force situations do we “learn” how to take fights....I shouldn’t have to worry about my team being dropped because of it

And yes I was referring to when it’s obvious when a team is purposely trying ruin the realistic experience for another team for fun. Wasn’t even referring to Boosted “messing around” unless they were. Which I’m pretty sure Monica had proof that they said they were.

Agreed but the council cannot be those hosting the scrims or having any affiliation with them completely independent. Sadly some people will not give that up. She would not have had the nerve to ban another major org if they did it once or 100 times.
