I'm planning on buying a ticket to Seoul tonight but the flight won't arrive until 3pm on the day and by then I know people will have been lined up for hours. I don't want to fly over only to end up missing the finals :/ | ||

 If I had to guess they will most likely set up TVs outside for people who couldn't get in. But they have to obey saftey concerns and I'm sure that place is gonna be packed. We're talking about the last ever finals here for a game that is still absurdly popular in Korea. Best bet would be to hope someone to get a ticket for you... maybe if they can show proof of when your flight arrives so that they don't think whoever you're asking is hoarding tickets? IMO it's not worth it unless you wanna vacation a bit in Korea anyway and are willing to cross your fingers. take my word with a grain of salt since they're all just my guesses (sorry) | ||

It feels really embarrassing and awkward to ask, because I am not a long member of the community and got hooked into BW over more or less over SC2, but could someone try and get me a ticket beforehand, please? I could pm or mail him my flight ticket or even my boarding card (I could make a photo of it, tomorrow after I checked in, if they don't believe the e-Ticket, because it could be easy to fake) I will arrive at 1pm at Incheon and try to hurry as much to the venue. Does actually anybody know how long it would take with a taxi from Incheon to Jamsil? (train does need about 85 min, according to what seoul metro says) | ||

(train does need about 85 min, according to what seoul metro says) A taxi from Incheon airport to Jamsil will cost you an arm and might not be faster than the subway. Take the airport railroad to Seoul Station, and then eventually grab a taxi. | ||

Where will the queue/ticket distribution be, at the main entrance of the stadium or somewhere else (nearby?)? Sorry for persisting with these questions, but having gotten this far, screwing it up would be somewhat anticlimactic... | ||

From what I gather, there are two flavours of "Airport Express" (AREX) of which one is not so "express" (not a problem if you're not in a hurry as the air conditioning is top class and it's damn hot outside) so you should make sure to find the one that doesn't stop at all that many stations. That, again from my limited knowledge, also means one that will not stop at the stations were you can switch to line 2 (serving the stations closest to the stadium), but, as others have indicated, a taxi may be a better choice for that last stretch (line 2 seems to be the analogue of "circle line ", if you're british, and riding it from the airport train to the area of the venue taks some time, I can tell from doing it). | ||

They want to do something to show their appreciation for Brood War fans that have been watching for years, so they will be having an official English broadcast for the finals. That sounds great! Wish they'd done this years ago though. Pity it happened just as bw esports is about to die. | ||

Is there gonna be a meetup like there was for proleague finals? 10-15 of us all met up, got tickets, got lunch, and spend the afternoon at a pc bang. If that's on the agenda I might bring myself to crawl out of bed earlier. | ||
