15th MBCGame Survivor Tournament
Team Liquid MSL FAQ


+ Show Spoiler [The Format (Quoted from the FAQ)] +
What is the MBCGame Survivor
MBCGame Survivor, commonly referred to as Survivor, is the qualification tournament for the MSL. There are 12 groups of 4 players with 2 people advancing from each group into the MSL. That makes a total of 24 players which come from Survivor to the MSL.

Who plays in Survivor?
The 24 failures from the previous MSL are guaranteed a spot in Survivor and they make up half of the player pool. The other 24 come from the Offline Preliminaries – which will be explained later. So that makes a total of 48 players competing for 24 available spots.

How does Survivor Work?
A survivor group is played in a dual tournament format.

Dual Tournament Format


The winning two players advance through to the MSL while the other two have to try their luck next season and re-qualify through the offline preliminaries.

What maps do they play on?
Survivor uses all 4 maps from the previous MSL, but the order of the maps vary from group to group. Usually, there is 1 map for the first game, a different map for the second game, 1 map for both the winners and the losers and 1 map for the tiebreak. These maps may or may not be used in the upcoming MSL.

What is the result of Survivor?
24 players advancing from Survivor + 8 seeds = 32 players for the next MSL.


Low Quality VODs availiable from the TLPD / nevake on youtube.

There should be 3 so far but shark and luxury both choked massively. (I really can't believe shark lost that game against gogo... he had such a lead but just fell apart.)

There's like no zergs advancing D: Good to see (Z)sAviOr coming back, but I wonder if he's going to dominate if he lost one to (T)UpMagiC.

Rooting for the underdog, (P)Tempest gogo!

Holy shit, this MSL is gonna suck and not just because i'm a Zerg fan, think of all the TvT's, worst MU ever.

Savior has no chance to advance in a group vs nothing but Terrans unless he somehow manages to play like he did 1 year ago, i wish he could though.

Jaedong destroyed Flash so he shouldn't have any problems this MSL.
We make signature, then defense it.
